For the most part, subduction of the Earth's plates don't have much effect on people - it happens, but there is nothing that changes what people do. However, it is possible for a sudden shift in the subduction zone to cause an earthquake, which necessarily is a rather large effect on the people in the area of the epicenter.
What else can I help you with?
How do volcano's form over spreading plates and subduction zones?
they dont affect it
What is a synonym for subduction?
A synonym for subduction is decrease.
How do you spell subduction?
That is the correct spelling of "subduction."
What is the process in which the ocean floor sinks into the mantle is called?
The process in which the ocean floor sinks into the mantle is called subduction. This occurs at convergent plate boundaries, where one tectonic plate slides beneath another. Subduction zones are associated with deep-sea trenches and volcanic activity.
What is it called when two plates slide one under the other?
It is known as subduction.
Which is required for an ocean trench to form?
Subduction.
Where can subduction volcanos be found?
the subduction volcano is found where
Is mount Cleveland a subduction zone?
Moun Cleveland formed as a result of a subduction zone, but is not a subduction zone in and of itself. A subduction zone is a feature that forms volcanoes, not a kind of volcano.
What is the name of the process where ocean crust sinks back toward the mantle?
It is called subduction and only occurs in oceanic to oceanic or oceanic to continental plate collisions.
What factors might influence the descent angle of a subducted plate?
The composition and density of the subducted plate, as well as the angle of subduction and presence of any obstacles in the subduction zone, can influence the descent angle of a subducted plate. Water content in the subducted plate can also affect its descent angle due to changes in the plate's buoyancy. The surrounding mantle flow and temperature conditions can further influence the descent angle of the subducted plate.
The area where a plate descends is a?
subduction zone
What does a continental margin have that an active margin does not?
Subduction. A subduction trench.
