Q5: In which ocean would you chart the deep‑sea trench named for Java, aligned with a subduction zone that shapes an Indonesian island arc?
Hint: This trench marks a boundary where one plate dives beneath another, birthing volcanoes, generating seismicity, and sculpting basins along a vast equatorial basin.
The name points squarely at maritime Southeast Asia, but the correct basin is the key to sorting it from nearby seas and gulfs on the map.
Oceanographers classify this feature among the great trenches that rim the world’s tectonic fire belts, but its label ties it to a single island.
