【 摘 要 】
The Banda Sea is a collage of young oceanic basins and fragmented Australian continental crust located at the heart of the Australia-SE Asia collision zone where Australian and Asian biogeographic regions converge. The formation of the sea was governed by the southeastward rollback of the Banda Slab since c. 16 Ma, which in its wake opened new oceanic basins and extended and fragmented Australian crust. These Australian crustal fragments are today either stranded within the Banda Sea where they form the prominent submarine 'Banda Ridges', or now reside as thrust-sheets on the NW Australian shelf after being transported all the way to the southern Banda Arc. The deepest part of the Banda Sea, the 7.2 km Weber Deep, was formed by extreme lithospheric extension that occured in the latter stages of Banda Slab rollback. This extension was accommodated by the vast low-angle 'Banda Detachment', which operated above the subducted fringes of the Australian continental margin.
