\(V_p\) models flattened by the basement (top of the crust) along lines A2, A3, A4, and A6, showing the along-profile variations in crustal thickness. The horizontal axis is the distance from the trench axis, and the vertical axis is the relative depth from the top of the crust. The A6 panel is the same as Fig. 8h. The yellow lines indicate the Moho depth, showing the crustal thickness along each line determined by the traveltime inversion. The red lines are plotted at a reference depth of 6.5 km to show variations in the thickness of the oceanic crust along each line and among all of the lines
