Which layer of the earth is the place where convection occurs?
Convection currents rese and sink through the mantle and the liquid outer core. In Earth's mantle, large amounts of heat are transferred by convection currents. Heat from the core and the mantle itself causes convection currents in the mantle.
Why does convection occurs in the athenosphere?
heat from the outer core and the mantle when it drifts up to the asthenosphere it causes convection.
When does convection occurs?
When a warm fluid rises and a cool fluid sinks.
What is the name of the heat transfer method that occurs in the Earth's mantle?
This is known as convection.
The slow circulation of the plastic mantle in the earths asthenosphere occurs by what processes?
convection
The driving force behind plate movement is the process of that occurs in the mantle.?
convection
How the convection occur in earth's mantle?
convection occurs in the asthenosphere, which is located under the lithosphere. the inner core heats the liquid mantle and it circles and produces plate tectonic activity.
What kind of decay occurs in the mantle and releases energy that drives convection currents?
Huh?
Earths lithosphere is broken into huge moving slabs of rock driven by motions in the mantle?
The motion in the mantle is known as convection currents which helps move earth's slabs, known as plates. Convection occurs in the upper mantle known as the asthenosphere.
What is a destructive force caused by the convection in the mantle?
Convection currents in the Earth's mantle are thought to be responsible for plate motions and therefore can ultimately be considered the cause of earthquakes. Mantle upwelling or mantle plumes are also thought to be the cause of hotpots which cause intra-plate volcanic activity such as that which occurs in Hawaii.
Where do convection currents flow in Earth?
Convection currents are found in the plastic mantle in Earth.
Mantle layer with more convection Mantle layer with less convection?
It's mantle with less, then mantle with more as you go deeper into earth.
