What is the pacific hinge?

The Pacific Hinge refers to a geologically active region along the Pacific Ocean's western edge, encompassing areas such as the Pacific Ring of Fire. This zone is characterized by frequent earthquakes, volcanic activity, and tectonic plate interactions, primarily due to the subduction of oceanic plates beneath continental plates. It includes countries like Japan, Indonesia, and parts of the west coast of North and South America, making it one of the most seismically active areas in the world. The term highlights the dynamic geological processes occurring in this pivotal region.
