Earthquakes are, basically, caused by the sudden release of pressure that has built up in the under-laying rock strata. This sudden release sends shock ways radiating out from the epicentre, that shakes buildings and can cause much damage and loss of life.
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.
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.
No they can occur at anytime.
