When the Earth's plates shift over each other.
The lithosphere is where earthquakes occur.
Earthquakes occur at all plate boundaries.
Earthquakes and volcanoes both occur in land and ocean. =)
Yes that is generally where most earthquakes occur
Intraplate earthquakes occur farther inland than other earthquakes. These earthquakes occur within a tectonic plate, away from plate boundaries where most earthquakes typically occur. Intraplate earthquakes can be caused by ancient faults or stress within the plate itself.
Earthquakes
Earthquakes occur along a fault. Near the San Andreas fault lots of earthquakes occur.
Kobe, located in Japan's seismically active region, experiences earthquakes relatively frequently. While smaller tremors occur regularly, significant earthquakes are less common, with major events like the Great Hanshin Earthquake in 1995 being notable exceptions. On average, the area may experience small to moderate earthquakes several times a year, but large-scale earthquakes are less predictable and can occur over longer intervals. Overall, the risk of earthquakes remains a constant concern for residents.
Most earthquakes occur at or near the boundaries between tectonic plates.
Please more specific, as earthquakes occur worldwide.
The frequency of earthquakes depends on the location. in Japan, earthquakes occur 3 times a month, and in the Sahara in Africa they occur once in five years..
Earthquakes could occur anywhere--on land or in sea. If they occur in the ocean, then they could trigger a tsunami warning.
