Earthquakes
What are geologic processes/vents that will occur because of this plate movement?
Most geologic activity on Earth takes place along tectonic plate boundaries, where plates move and interact, leading to events like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain building.
Chile is located next to Argentina to the east and the Pacific Plate to the west. This geologic setting makes Chile a seismically active region due to the boundary between the South American Plate and the Nazca Plate to the west.
convergent plate boundaries
there was plate tectonic movement
An earthquake is a geologic event caused by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface. It is not weather-related or caused by humans. Earthquakes occur due to the release of energy accumulated as stress along fault lines in the Earth's crust.
plate tectonics
The tectonic plate that holds India collided into another tectonic plate which caused the ground to gradually move upwards causing mountains.
it caused the plate tectonics to move.....all of the places near it would move (although we wouldn't feel it)
Mount McKinley, also known as Denali, is growing due to tectonic plate movement. The collision of the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate has caused the mountain to rise over time. The compressional forces created by this tectonic activity are responsible for the uplift of Denali.
Sea floor spreading is part of the geologic activity know as plate tectonics.
No movement
