How are Iceland's volcanoes connected to plate tectonics?
Iceland's volcanoes are connected to plate tectonics because the country sits on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are moving apart. This movement creates magma beneath the surface, leading to volcanic activity in Iceland.
Which type of plate margin forms volcanoes?
A physcadelic plate.
What kind of plate boundary commonly forms a chain of volcanoes?
The Transform plate boundary commonly forms a chain of volcanoes - Professer Humifiken
What do Earthquakes and volcanoes show power of what kind of movement?
plate movement
Why volcanoes is located at Iceland?
because iceland is one of the countries on the tectonic plate si itz part of a subduction zone :)
Iceland near volcano situated?
there will be volcanoes located on Iceland as it is located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. this is a plate boundary where 2 of the tectonic plate edges are slowly moving away from each other. the plates are that are responsible for volcanoes in Iceland in particular are the North American Plate and the Eurasian Plate(mainly Europe). as these 2 places move away from each other, the magma/ lava underneath rises up to fill the gap, forming volcanoes.
What are two ways volcanoes can forms near converging plate boundaries?
Volcanoes may form where two oceanic plates collide or where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate.
What is the direction of the plate and how does this compare to the trend in direction of the island chain?
The pacific plate moves towards the northwest. the plate moves the older volcanoes with it and so the hot spot produces new volcanoes.
What kind of landforms can destructive plate movement cause?
Mountains, Continents, Volcanoes, Islands, and Fault Lines are the 5 landforms caused by plate movement.
What type of landforms have been created in Hawaii because of plate movement?
volcanoes
Name 2 destructive side effects of plate movement?
Earthquakes and Volcanoes
What boundary is iceland volcanoes?
If you mean plate boundaries, quite a few are along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge which consists of the North American and Eurasian plate boundaries.
