The New Hebrides Trench, also known as the Vanuatu Trench, is an oceanic trench located in the South Pacific Ocean, off the northeastern coast of Australia and east of the island nation of Vanuatu. It is formed by the subduction of the Australian Plate beneath the Pacific Plate. The trench is part of a complex system of tectonic plate interactions in the region, which is known for its seismic activity, including the potential for earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
