2. 20-17 ma along ne-sw axis
model

  1. holloway and taylor and hayes put the spreading the prominent ridge being the scarborough ridge in teh basin on a roughly NE-SW direction starting aroung 32 ma (oligocene)
  2. briais showed a progressive change in the orientation of the spreading center: ENE-WSW fro 32-30 ma and E-W from 30-27 ma by 26-24 ma the ridge jumped to the south and a second basin started foriming to the southwest
    briasis suggested that the SCS spreading ceased aroung 15.5 ma
    rosser said the event occurred somewhat earlier
  3. trench pull/roll bakc rangin et al
    trench pull
    gravity controlled trench pull involked explain the rifting and spreading the subduction along sunda trench may be responsible for the opening of the proto-SCS and the subduction of the proto-SCS douth of plawan may in turn explain the south china sea opening
    pubellier trench rollback (back arc basin)
    rolls back due to getting longer as it subducts and initiates spreading
