What is the main cause for earthquake activity in the ring of fire?
Tectonic Plate movement
What is the main theory about the cause of volcanic activity and earthquakes in this region?
Plate tectonics.
What are the main features of a tsunmi?
Tsunamis have large waves that come over land and cause flooding. Plate tectonics cause this.
What makes the movement of air?
Differing air temperature causing cold air to sink, and warm air to rise is the main cause of air movement.
What is polar displacement?
Polar displacement. I think what your referring to if we are talking in a geological sense is actually called polar wandering and it is the apparent movement of the north and south poles over geological time however the poles are actually not the objects moving it is the continental landmasses under plate tectonics moving the land under the poles. The poles do move slightly before they reverse however plate tectonics is the main cause of polar wandering.
What is the main cause for earthquake activity in the ring of fire?
Tectonic Plate movement
What is the main cause of earthquake's?
The main cause of earthquakes is when there is a sudden movement of various plate boundaries or when plates scrape against each other. Some earthquakes are also caused from old plate boundaries or faults. Many earthquakes happen at faults, such as the San Andreas Fault in California.
What is thought to be the main reason for plate movement?
Convection currents
