What kind of convergence is occurring between the Philippine plate and the pacific plate?
The convergence between the Philippine Plate and the Pacific Plate is primarily characterized as a subduction zone. The Pacific Plate is being subducted beneath the Philippine Plate, leading to the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and seismic activity in the region. This process contributes to the high levels of tectonic activity, including earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, particularly along the eastern coast of the Philippines.
