Volcanoes are most commonly associated with the top plate in subduction zones.
Most notable is the so-called 'Ring of Fire', an area encircling the Pacific Ocean where oceanic crustal plates are subducting under continental plates and less dense oceanic plates.
subduction zone
subduction zone
A subduction zone and a collision zone are the same place, a collision just happens earlier, when the crusts of the two plates are interacting. Later, when the crust of one plate is being forced under the crust of another plate into the mantle, it becomes a subduction zone.
A subduction zone at a convergent plate boundary. Undersea trenches are formed where the oceanic plate subducts, and volcanism and earthquakes may result from the partial melting and downward movement of the subducting crust.
i knowsubduction
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.
anything can happen at a subduction zone
Subduction zone
A continent to continent convergent boundary does not have a subduction zone.
Most notable is the so-called 'Ring of Fire', an area encircling the Pacific Ocean where oceanic crustal plates are subducting under continental plates and less dense oceanic plates.
no
No. The volcanic activity in Japan is associated with a subduction zone.
Spreading center earthquakes are always shallow, subduction zone earthquakes can be very deep.Spreading center earthquakes are typically of lower magnitude than subduction zone earthquakes.
