Compression
Convergent boundary.
A convergent boundary causes compressional stress.
The Mariana Trench is a convergent boundary, where two tectonic plates are colliding and one plate is forced beneath the other.
At a convergent boundary, plates move towards each other.
At a convergent boundary, tectonic plates are typically pushed together by the force of subduction where one plate is forced beneath the other, or by collision where the plates directly collide with each other. This movement can be driven by the force of mantle convection, where heat from the Earth's core causes the mantle to flow in a circular motion.
Convergent boundary.
There are 3 types of Convergent boundaries, they are; 1. Continental-continental convergent boundary. 2. Continental-oceanic convergent boundary. 3. Oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary.

Mountain-building is a result of continental collision, so destructive plate boundaries. One plate is destroyed by subduction below the other, which undergoes compression, buckling and uplift as the collision continues. This is happening at present in Asia, raising the Himalayan Mountains.

An area where two tectonic plates collide is called a boundary. There are three kinds of boundaries. They are convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.
A Transform Fault ZoneIn the textbook Earth Science and the Environment (4th Edition) by Thompson and Turk. Located on page 163, it shows that Tonga has a Convergent Boundary. A convergent boundary is where two lithospheic plates collide head on.
