Earthquakes are very common along transform boundaries. An example of a transform boundary is the San Andreas fault in California.
What else can I help you with?
What is the relationship between plate boundaries and earthquake epicenters?
Yes! Earthquake epicentres and volcanoes both tend to be concentrated at or near the boundaries of tectonic plates.
What is the relationship between the earthquake regions and the plate boundaries?
Earthquake regions are commonly located along plate boundaries because this is where tectonic plates interact, causing stress to build up and eventually release as an earthquake. The movement and interaction of these plates create fault lines where earthquakes tend to occur.
Where does an earthquake usually form?
Plate boundaries
What is the relationship between earthquake depth and type of plate boundary?
subbduction zones
Are all plate boundaries located where land meets water?
No, there is no relationship between the two.
What is interpolate earthquake?
Earthquakes that occur along plate boundaries
Does movement along plate boundaries results in earthquake?
yes
The location on earth's surface directly above the focus of an earthquake is the epicenter a close correlation exists between epicenters and plate boundaries is it true or false?
Yes, it is true that the location of the earth's surface is directly above the focus of an earthquake is the epicenter a close correlation exists between epicenters and the plate boundaries.
Was they Haiti earthquake caused by constructive plate boundaries?
No. The Haitian earthquake was caused by a transform boundary.
What does scientists use volcanoes and earthquake activity to establish?
plate boundaries
Frequent earthquake in a given zone are evidence that?
Tectonic plate boundaries
Earthquake foci can be used to mark the boundaries of what earth features?
Earthquake foci can be used to mark the earths plate boundaries . The movement along the plate boundary causes the earthquake. Knowing where the foci is can help predict future earthquakes in that scientists can monitor the area for shifts in the plates.
