Tectonics of the Indonesian region
The plate-tectonic evolution of a region can be deduced by following the as sumptions that subduction zones are characterized by ophiolite, melange, wildflysch, and blueschist, that intermediate and silicic calc-alkaline igneous rocks form above Benioff

Global-scale control of extensional tectonics on CO2 earth degassing
Earth degassing of CO2-rich fluids has been proven to contribute significantly to the global carbon budget. The presence of ubiquitous outgassing reveals some degree of permeability of the crust that often coincides with seismically active zones. In this
