Microplate in Southeast Asia carrying the island of Timor and surrounding islands
The Timor Plate is a small tectonic plate (microplate) in Southeast Asia carrying the island of Timor and surrounding islands. The Australian Plate is subducting under the southern edge of the plate, while a small divergent boundary is located on the eastern edge. Another convergent boundary exists with the Banda Sea Plate to the north, and to the west is a transform boundary.
