What tectonic plates were involved with the Sichuan earthquake in 2008?
The epicenter of the Tangshan earthquake is near the Eurasian and North American tectonic plate boundaries. Shifts along this convergent boundary are generally thought to be the cause of the quake.
What is main mantle thrust?
Main Mantle Thrust fault (MMT) is a regional fault in the Northern Pakistan, lower swat of Pakistan. It is formed due to the collusion of INDIAN PLATE with the EURASIAN plate, which had happened in cretaceous age. It is the last boundary of INDIAN PLATE, beyond this to the NORTH is Kohistan Island Arc(KIA). KIA is the area between INDIAN PLATE and EURASIAN PLATE. Beyond the KIA towards the NORTH is Main Karakorum Thrust fault(MKT). Both are the thrust faults and the characteristics of thrust faults is that it brings the older rocks over the younger rocks. MKT is the start of EURASIAN PLATE, means after it EURASIAN PLATE starts. . regards AHMAD GHANI, geo_agk@yahoo.com Department of Geology, University of Peshawar.
What do particles from the sun sometimes interact with earths magnetic field to create what?

Did Japanese soldiers land on Australian soil?
No. There is no record of Japanese soldiers landing on Australian soil. Much damage was done with the air bombings of Darwin and Broome.

Their attempts to hit the Sydney Harbour Bridge fell far short of the mark. But there is no indication that any Japanese soldiers ever landed on Australian soil.
What features could occur where the northern part of the indo-australian plate is colliding with the Eurasian plate?
The collision between the northern part of the Indo-Australian plate and the Eurasian plate could result in the formation of mountain ranges, such as the Himalayas. It could also trigger earthquakes, due to the intense tectonic activity along the plate boundary. Additionally, subduction zones and volcanic activities might occur as a result of the collision.
Is eurasian plate continental or oceanic?
The Eurasian Plate is primarily a continental plate, as it encompasses a large portion of Eurasia, including landmasses such as Europe and Asia. However, it also includes oceanic features, particularly in the northern regions where it interacts with the Arctic Ocean. Overall, its composition is predominantly continental.
