What type of plate boundary closest to fresnocalifornia?
what type of plate boundary is closest to fresno,california
What plate boundary are you closest to?
Me, personally? I live near Sacramento, California, USA, and the nearest plate boundary is about 100 miles to the west, the boundary between the North American plate and the Pacific.
What type of plate boundary is foud where the gorda plate meets the north american plate?
The boundary between the Gorda plate and the North American Plate is a transform boundary. Transform boundaries that lie at near land are the most destructive, which is the case in Southern California, which is close to this plate boundary.
In what way is the plate boundary along the coast of California different from the plate boundary along the west coast of South America?
California is a slip fault and Chile is a thrust fault.
Why does California is always attacked by earthquakes?
Because it is on a plate boundary.

What type of plate boundary is lassen peak?
Lassen Peak is located in Northern California. It is a convergent boundary that formed when the Pacific Plate collided with the North American Plate..
Will anymore earthquakes happen in California?
yes, because California is at an active plate boundary.
What kind of plate boundary occurs in California?
California is a transform plate boundary. That means it is a convergent boundary that is strike-slipping past each plate to release pressure. Near San Francisco area, there is a portion of the Juan De Fuca plate which is subducting under the North American Plate. It has almost completed a total subduction
Why does New York not have earthquakes like California?
California is on a tectonic plate boundary. When the plates move past each other, an earthquake happens. There is no boundary running through New York.
