Compressional stresses occur at convergent plate boundaries.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of stressors on the rock cause faults?
The stress that causes strike-slip faults is produced by a shearing force and so is called shear stress.
What kind of force occurs in San Andreas fault?
transform boundary
What kind of boundary occurs on the western coast of south America?
a mountainous one.
What kind of plate boundary occurs where two plates grind past each without destroying or producing lithosphere?
transform fault boundary
What kind of boundary is mid ocean boundary?
Its a divergent boundary
What kind of plate occurs where two plates grind past each other without destroying or producing lithosphere?
transform fault boundary
When two sections of earths crust collide what kind of boundary is this?
Destructive (Plate) Boundary.Under converging convection currents in the asthenosphere, two plates converge.This is called slab pull.The denser plate sinks, then subducts into the asthenosphere and melt into magma.
Andes Mountains are on what kind of boundary?
convergent boundary.
What kind of mass does Stormy Weather have?
Stormy weather often occurs along the boundary between air masses or in association with a low pressure system.
What kind of metamorphism might take place at a divergent boundary?
When a divergent boundary occurs beneath oceanic lithosphere, the rising convection current below lifts the lithosphere producing a mid-ocean ridge!!!Hope i helped.
What kind of boundry occurs wherever two plates move toward each other?
A convergent boundary occurs when two plates move toward each other. This movement can result in subduction, where one plate is forced beneath the other, or it can create mountain ranges and volcanic activity.
At which plate boundary is one lithospheric plate sliding under another?
The kind of plate boundary where one lithospheric plate slides under another is a convergent boundary. This process is called subduction.
