This paper considers the palaeoplain and the basal unconformity to be the same surface. It presents a hypothesis for continental passive margins that integrates the geomorphology near the continental boundary with the offshore geomorphology
. This model explains the parallel structures of continental divide, present coast line, and continental edge. It also explains the creation of the basal unconformity in a short time, and the comparative volumes of onshore erosion and offshore sedimentation
. Onshore, the model explains the modifications of drainage and the great escarpments that are characteristic of passive margins.

There are major changes in the tectonic geomorphology of the Hikurangi margin along its length. In the north all the typical forearc, arc and back arc elements occur| in the south there are no arc or backarc elements even though the subducted slab
is present. These differences manifest greater and lesser degrees of coupling of the two plates (oceanic Pacific plate and continental Australia plate) in the southern and northern regions, respectively.

Active deformation of the continental margin along the Nankai and Suruga Troughs, Southwest Japan
as tectonic deformations of the continental margin through the Quaternary up to the present. The continental slope facing the Nankai and Suruga Troughs is highly deformed and more active than the oceanic trench itself.
