Tsunamis and plates are some what related in one way tsunamis are related by the change in the earths epicenter. a landslide is related in two ways by an focus and a fault line. plates are related an forming of mountains and the turning of the types of plates.
Plates shifting causes earthquakes which can cause landslides or tsunamis.
What else can I help you with?
What cause earthquakes tsunamis and landslides?
Shifting of Tectonic Plates.
What causes tsunami and earthquakes in Japan?
Earthquakes in Japan are caused by the movement of tectonic plates. A tsunami is a large ocean wave that is caused by sudden motion on the ocean floor which can be triggered by earthquakes.
Which two natural disasters are commonly associated with the movement of tectonic plates?
Earthquakes and volcanoes. Earthquakes may also cause tsunami.
What are seismic waves and what information information do they give about earthquakes?
Earthquakes are when the seismic plates on the earths crust move after pressure from on another is exceeded, seismic waves are produced after an earthquake, and can turn into a tsunami.
How are faults and earthquakes are related?
The are both related to the movement of tectonic plates.
What four things happen when plates move?
earthquakes volcanoes landslides and tsunami
Can landslides be caused by plates in the earth moving?
Indirectly. The movement of tectonic plates is the cause of the majority of earthquakes. Earthquakes can cause landslides.
What cause earthquakes tsunamis and landslides?
Shifting of Tectonic Plates.
What are lithosphere plates and how are lithosphere plates related to earthquakes?
they are related by,they are plates
What causes tsunami and earthquakes in Japan?
Earthquakes in Japan are caused by the movement of tectonic plates. A tsunami is a large ocean wave that is caused by sudden motion on the ocean floor which can be triggered by earthquakes.
Which feature do you see when tectonic plates move apart?
Earthquakes and Tsunami.
How are earthquake and a tsunami related?
tectonic plates
Does the earth effect a tsunami?
Yes, but there are other factors that are just as significant. Earthquakes below 7.0 usually don't produce noticeable tsunamis. Larger earthquakes may or may not produce a tsunami, depending on the location, depth, type and orientation of the fault.
How is plate tectonics related to landslides?
because it is a type of techtonic plates
How did plate tectonics make earthquakes landslides and tidal waves?
Plate tectonics cause earthquakes when tectonic plates move and release built-up stress at their boundaries. Landslides can occur during earthquakes when the shaking of the ground causes slope failures. Tidal waves, or tsunamis, can be generated by underwater earthquakes or landslides that displace large volumes of water.
What do you call the plates that cause tsunami's?
They are called tectonic plates. See the related question below for more information about the causes of tsunami.
Which two natural disasters are commonly associated with the movement of tectonic plates?
Earthquakes and volcanoes. Earthquakes may also cause tsunami.
