What else can I help you with?
What is leads to the creation of island arcs?
They are the result of the subduction processes related to plate tectonic movements, specifically they mostly form where one oceanic tectonic plate subducts another one.
What type of boundary is northern sumatra?
The northern boundary of Sumatra is a general tectonic boundary where the Eurasian Plate meets the Sunda Plate. This boundary can experience earthquakes and volcanic activity due to tectonic movements.
What causes earthquakes and volcaneos?
Earthquakes are caused by Earth's Tectonic movements.. Volcano is caused by the movement of molten lava inside Earth..
Describe the relationship between tsunami and plate tectonic?
The collision of tectonic plates causes earthquakes. When one place slides below the other plate beneath the ocean floor, this rapid movement of the plates forced the ocean floor and water upward. The energy was then transmitted across the ocean, causing huge tsunami waves.
What tectonic plate is Indiana on?
Indiana sits on the North American tectonic plate.
How can rivers show tectonic plate movements?
Rivers cannot directly show tectonic plate movements. However, the sources of rivers are commonly found in mountains, which are often an indicator of the boundaries of tectonic plates.
What made volcanoes?
Volcano's are made by tectonic plate movements.
Types of plate movements?
Tectonic movement.
Are earthquakes caused by galactic forces?
No, they are caused by tectonic plate movements.
The primary force that causes the seafloor to spred and continets to drift?
Tectonic plate movements or plate shifting.
What are movements of the earth crust and mantle called?
this is called tectonic plates moving, this causes earthquakes and if under water it's called a psunami
What is causing faulting?
Faulting is caused by the stretching or compression of rock by tectonic plate movements
What is the definition of intraplate activity and how does it differ from other types of tectonic plate movements?
Intraplate activity refers to geological movements that occur within the interior of tectonic plates, away from plate boundaries. This type of activity is different from other tectonic plate movements, such as convergent or divergent boundaries, where plates collide or separate. Intraplate activity can include events like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and uplift of land, and is often less frequent and more localized compared to movements at plate boundaries.
What is leads to the creation of island arcs?
They are the result of the subduction processes related to plate tectonic movements, specifically they mostly form where one oceanic tectonic plate subducts another one.
What are tectonic plates and why are they important to us?
A plate tectonics is a theory that describes the formation movements and interaction
What Plate may move because of this type of movements in the mantle?
Tectonic plates shift with other plate causeing either mountions or volcanoes
What two natural disasters come from plate tectonic movements?
Earth quakes and tsunami (also volcanoes)
