A fracture in the Earth's crust (with associated transverse or strike slip movement - similar to the San Andreas fault) that runs through the north of the country of Turkey, separating Eurasian plate and the Anatolian plate. It is associated with modern earthquakes, the loci of which which are gradually moving westwards towards Istanbul.
The North Anatolian Fault is a Strike-slip fault.
The North Anatolian Fault is formed along the Anatolian plate and the Eurasian plate. It is one the the major earthquake zones in Turkey. It is formed by a transform boundary.
conservative. but sanfrancisco is actually on a transform fault not a boundary. the fault is a result of the boundary between the north American and pacific plates.
San Andreas Fault.
San Francisco is located on the boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, known as the San Andreas Fault. This is a transform plate boundary, where the two plates are sliding past each other horizontally.
The San Andreas Fault forms the boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate.
Yes. An example is the San Andreas Fault, a transform boundary between the Pacific (oceanic) and the North American (continental) plates.
The San Andreas Fault in California, where the Pacific Plate meets the North American Plate and they grind past each other. Also: Turkey's North Anatolian Fault New Zealand's Alpine Fault
The San Andreas fault in California is a major transform boundary or fault, as is New Zealand's Alpine fault and North America's Queen Charlotte fault.
Examples of transform boundaries include the San Andreas Fault in California, the Alpine Fault in New Zealand, and the Dead Sea Transform in the Middle East. At these boundaries, tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, creating strike-slip faults.

A transform boundary.
The San Andreas fault is not connected to the North American or Pacific Plates but is merely the boundary between the two where they make contact. As such, it is a fault as well as a plate boundary.
The San Andreas fault is an example of a strike-slip fault. It is located at a transform boundary, and was created when the Pacific plate and North American plate ground past one another horizontally.
That is called a boundary or a transform-fault boundary. :D
San Andreas Fault.
The San Andreas Fault is a continental transform fault. It is around eight hundred and ten miles long and forms the boundary between the Pacific and the North American lithospheric plates. In California this crack in the crust of the earth is visible. As a result of this fault, many earthquakes have occurred in the regions that it passes.
The San Andreas fault in California is a major transform boundary or fault, as is New Zealand's Alpine fault and North America's Queen Charlotte fault.
when two plates are slide past one another an example is the san Andreas fault California which is the boundary between the north America and pacific plates
