What hazards are characteristics of transform boundary?

Answer 1

Earthquakes typically occur along transform boundaries releasing different amounts of energy, depending on the severity of the earthquake. Earthquakes are caused because one plate grinds past another plate, producing vibrations caused by the release of energy.

Answer 2

Hazards associated with transform boundaries include earthquakes due to the sliding of tectonic plates past each other, as well as potential tsunamis if the boundary is underwater. Volcanic activity is less likely at transform boundaries compared to other types of plate boundaries.
