One reason has to do with tectonic movement and the shifting of plates. It causes stress underground which releases in the form of earthquakes. The rises in pressure are results of the weight from the rocks and earth as it shifts. Aquifers can be another reason for pressure build up, which are composed of either water, oil, or gas.

What causes increases in barometric pressures?
Low and high pressure systems. Obviously if you have a Low pressure system the barometric pressure will get low. High pressure causes the barometric pressure to rise.
Which type of rocks are produced by changing other rocks with high temperature and pressure underground?
Metamorphic rocks are produced by changing other rocks with temperature and pressure underground.
The pressure gradient force causes air to flow from areas of relatively pressure to areas of relatively pressure?
high to low
What causes high air pressure?
high air pressure is caused when the airmass cools
What causes an air mass to have high pressure?
the air becomes dense and it sinks
What causes increases in barometric pressures?
Low and high pressure systems. Obviously if you have a Low pressure system the barometric pressure will get low. High pressure causes the barometric pressure to rise.
What causes high fuel input pressure on a 5.9 cummins at high rpm?
the high pressure oil pump
Which type of rocks are produced by changing other rocks with high temperature and pressure underground?
Metamorphic rocks are produced by changing other rocks with temperature and pressure underground.
What causes fracturing of sedimentary rocks?
Any force applied on it, erosion, pressure and heat from underground.
What causes plastic flow to?
High pressure
What causes more heart diseases heart rate or high blood pressure?
High blood pressure
What causes a thermal high near the surface?
High pressure at the surface
What causes plastic flow to occur?
High pressure
What are the causes of high blood pressure?
High cholesterol levels, and not enough exercise.
All Types of Underground Drilling rig that drill underground?
hammers, pick axes high pressure waterboring machines greathead shield
What causes pressure behind the eyes?
high blood pressue, glacouma
Why does one collapse with low blood pressure and with high potassium in the blood?
high potassium causes arrhythmias and the arrhythmias that it causes can reduce blood pressure causing someone to collapse.
