The map below is of an area in east central Russia that was discussed several times in lecture. Which of the following geologic processes or phenomena is occurring in this region? I. Active volcanic eruptions along an island arc on the east shore of the lake that are associated with a subduction zone. II. Hot springs at the bottom of the large lake. III. The early stages of rifting that will most likely become a divergent plate boundary in the future. IV. Earthquakes generated from the ongoing collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates.
