What else can I help you with?
Where the earthquakes located?
In subduction zones.
What major cities are on fault lines?
A large number of cities are built in earthquake zones on or near fault lines. Earthquakes can create nice deep harbours, hills with nice views and other topography to make a good place to build a city (San Francisco is good example). There are far too many cities to list here but many of the cities that have coastline on the Pacific ocean have fault lines nearby....
Which major cities in the California are located in earthquake zones?
San Francisco, San Jose, Los angeles, Long Beach San Diego and Sacramento are also near earthquake zones but do not have nearly the level of threat as the 4 listed above
Why does Chile experience earthquakes?
Chile is located on a tectonic plate boundery and a subduction zone called the Peru-Chile trench. Very violent earthquakes happen at subduction zones.
Does Indonesia have earthquakes?
Indonesia is located near the borders of the Eurasian and Indo-Australian Tectonic Plate zones. Subduction will happen from the plates rubbing together causing earthquakes in Indonesia
Where are earthquake located in the world map?
California is known for earthquakes in the United States. Earthquakes are usually found around tectonic plate boundaries. For example the Pacific Ring of Fire.
Where do you find most of the zones of earthquakes and volcanoes on Earth's surface?
usually you find most of the zones of earthquakes and volcanoes at a plate boundary.
The deepest earthquakes occur were?
The deepest earthquakes occur at subduction zones where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another into the Earth's mantle. These earthquakes can occur as deep as 700 km below the surface.
Can you get active and inactive earthquake zones?
yes you can get active and inactive earthquakes zones.
Do earthquakes occur in subduction zones?
For sure.
Why are the majority of earthquake zones located at tectonic pate boundaries?
Earthquake zones are primarily located at tectonic plate boundaries because this is where the Earth's tectonic plates interact, leading to stress accumulation and release that causes earthquakes. The movement of plates along these boundaries creates faults where seismic activity can occur due to the build-up and release of energy.
What three Aztec cities were located in swampy zones?
The three Aztec cities located in swampy zones were Tenochtitlan, Tlatelolco, and Tlaxcala. These cities were built on artificial islands in the middle of Lake Texcoco, which provided natural defenses and access to resources.
