What voncanoes are located along a diverging plate boundaries?
Submarine volcanoes.
Is subduction characteristic of diverging plate boundaries?
No, subduction is not characteristic of diverging plate boundaries. Subduction occurs at converging plate boundaries where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another plate. Diverging plate boundaries are where tectonic plates move away from each other, such as at mid-ocean ridges.
What are two Ways volcanoes Form near converging plate boundaries?
Volcanoes may form where two oceanic plates collide or where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate.
What are two ways volcanoes can forms near converging plate boundaries?
Volcanoes may form where two oceanic plates collide or where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate.
Is Pinatubo is along converging plate boundaries?
Yes. Pinatubo and the other volcanoes of the Philippines are the result of he convergence between the Philippine Plate and the Eurasian plate.
Where are the majority of earthquakes and volcanoes in relation to the plate boundaries?
Most earthquakes occur on plate boundaries such as Japan and Chile and most volcanoes occur in diverging plate boundaries like Dallol and Iceland and the Pacific Ring of Fire like Ecuador and Indonesia
Where do these collision boudaries form?
Collision boundaries form at tectonic plate boundaries where two plates are either converging, diverging, or sliding past each other. These boundaries are categorized as convergent boundaries, divergent boundaries, and transform boundaries, respectively.
Where are earthquakes and volcanoes found around the world?
Where tectonic plates are converging and diverging with each otherThey are mostly found around the Pacific "Ring of Fire", and more generally on any destructive or contstructive plate boundary.Most occur on destructive plate boundaries. The Pacific 'ring of fire' is an example of a long series of destructive plate margins and most volcanoes and earthquakes on Earth are on it.
Is the South American plate a diverging converging or transform boundary?
Transform
Can volcanoes form along spreading plate boundaries on land?
No, volcanoes do not typically form along spreading plate boundaries on land. Volcanic activity at spreading plate boundaries is more commonly associated with mid-ocean ridges where two tectonic plates are moving apart, allowing magma to rise to the surface and form new oceanic crust. Land-based volcanoes are more often found at convergent plate boundaries where one plate is subducting beneath another.
Which type of plate boundaries produce volcanoes?
Continental and Oceanic plates.
What type of plate boundary does compression occur?
Converging Plate Boundaries
