Do different places have different reasons for the occurrence of the earthquake?
Yes they do depending on which type of faultline they're on or near. There are four types of faults: Normal fault, where one side of the faultline is descending into the Earth and rubs against the other side as it falls due to gravity. Reverse fault, essentially the reverse of the Normal fault; where one side is raised up along the faultline. Transcurrent(strike-slip) fault, where one side scrapes horizontally against the other side as the plates move (e.g. the San Andreas fault). Thrust fault, where one side of the faultline thrusts up onto the other side of the faultline.
What is the type of movement that occurs at the transform boundary?
