The basins of the Philippine Sea have fairly normal oceanic crust that includes, between the sea floor and layer 2, a layer of about 3.5-km/sec velocity controlling the characteristic rough topography. Crustal thickening beneath the Nansei Shoto, Oki-Daito, Kyushu-Palau, and the Honshu-Mariana ridges is associated mainly with an increase in thickness of the 3.5-km/sec layer and a thick underlying section of material with a velocity between 5.5 and 6.0 km/sec. Beneath the Nansei Shoto trench and the Honshu-Mariana trench, there is a tendency for layer 2 to increase and layer 3 to decrease in thickness as the trench is approached from the adjacent oceanic sector.
