Multichannel seismic (MCS) data were collected in the central Izu-Bonin island arc in preparation for Legs 125 and 126 of the Ocean Drilling Program, and as part of our continuing research into the evolution of intraoceanic arc-trench systems (Fig. 1). Our seismic investigation focused on the processes of arc, forearc, and backarc formation, tectonics, and sedimentation. In the forearc basin, the MCS data provide insights into the nature and mode of basin formation, lithospheric flexure that results from arc volcano loading, and forearc sedimentation processes and evolution. Major issues addressed by the MCS survey in the arc/backarc region include the nature and style of arc volcanism and backarc rift-basin sedimentation, faulting, and volcanism. For an overview of the tectonic evolution of the Izu-Bonin Arc, see the "Introduction" chapter (this volume). In this paper we present the processed MCS data from our surveys of the Sumisu Rift (Profiles 3-6, 8, 9, 13, and 14) and the arc to outerarc high portion of the forearc (Profiles 1-5 and 8-14; Fig. 2). Interpretations of the trench-slope MCS data appear in Horine et al. (in press). Papers presenting our interpretation of the backarc rift and forearc basin MCS data are in preparation. Detailed correlations of the MCS data and the Leg 126 drilling results are presented in the "Seismic Stratigraphy" sections of each site chapter in this volume.
