What is causing faulting?
Faulting is caused by the stretching or compression of rock by tectonic plate movements
What plate is krakatoa on?
Krakatoa is situated on the Sunda Plate in Indonesia. The Sunda Plate is a minor tectonic plate in the region, and Krakatoa is a volcanic island located within this tectonic setting.

How did mt Krakatoa erupt?
Mt. Krakatoa erupted on August 27, 1883, due to tectonic plate movement leading to the buildup of magma beneath the surface. The intense release of pressure caused a series of cataclysmic explosions, resulting in one of the most powerful volcanic eruptions in recorded history.
What causes earthquakes and volcaneos?
Earthquakes are caused by Earth's Tectonic movements.. Volcano is caused by the movement of molten lava inside Earth..
What direction does the Krakatoa plates move?
The tectonic plates around Krakatoa, located in the Sunda Arc of Indonesia, primarily move in a northward and eastward direction due to the subduction of the Indo-Australian Plate beneath the Eurasian Plate. This movement contributes to volcanic activity in the region, including the eruptions of Krakatoa. Additionally, the complex interactions of the surrounding plates can lead to varying degrees of seismic activity. Overall, the area is characterized by significant tectonic dynamics.
How si a gorge formed?
Gorges are formed by tectonic plate movement or by erosion caused by flowing water-rivers.
What is the plate movement of a destructive plate?
tectonic shift
Are plate tectonics caused by convection currents in the mantle?
That is the current theory of plate tectonics.
What are the causes of tsunami which was hit by japan?
The sudden movement of the Pacific tectonic plate under the North American plate caused a massive earthquake and a tsunami.
