Alaska is located on the Pacific and North American plates. Alaska experiences more than half of all the earthquakes that occur each year in North America.
no it's not in the American plate it is in the eurasian plate
i have no clue in my life time ever ever ever ever ever
the plates near alaska are bumping into each other and this is causing a serious snow storm
North American Plate.
Alaska and Hawaii
The Mount Redoubt, like the other volcanoes of southern Alaska, is the result of a convergent plate boundary, specifically a subduction zone.
Denali fault. It is a transform plate boundary
The area of the United States that is the most seismically active is Alaska. After that the states that follow are California, Hawaii, Nevada, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, and Oregon.
Is Guatemala in the north american plate? i kno i shouldn't be asking, but i desperately need the answer for my science project and theres no where to ask questions. please answer! thnx
There are no fault lines in Alaska. Yes there are, just check the history of Anchorage!
The collision between the Pacific Oceanic Plate and the North American Continental plate can cause earthquakes in Alaska.
the pacific plate.
the plate boundary at the mount is a colliding plate boundary
Alaska is on the edge of a crustal plate

The 1964 earthquake in Anchorage, Alaska occurred as a result of an oceanic plate sinking under a continental or land plate. Two types of tsunami were produced as a result of this massive quake.
The Mount Redoubt, like the other volcanoes of southern Alaska, is the result of a convergent plate boundary, specifically a subduction zone.
It was the action of the Pacific and North American plates that resulted in the '64 quake in Alaska. This plate boundary is a "nasty" one, and it has more "surprises" for us in store.
Denali fault. It is a transform plate boundary
The North American Plate. The North American Plate includes virtually all of the continental United States (including Alaska), Canada, Mexico and Greenland. Baja California is on the Pacific Plate.
