What are 2 geological features that can occur at plate boundaries?
Two geological features that can occur at plate boundaries are mountain ranges, formed from the collision of two plates, and deep ocean trenches, formed at subduction zones where one plate is forced beneath another.
When and where the trench occurs?
Trenches occur by diverging plate boundries and normally at about 11,000 meters deep. This includes sea floor spreading which is where a new layer of crust forms at the mid ocean ridge and the old crust falls into trenches
Where is a trench most likely to occur?
Trenches are most likely to occur at convergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates collide and one is forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This creates deep oceanic trenches, such as the Mariana Trench in the western Pacific Ocean, which is the deepest known trench on Earth.
Explain what plate tectonics and ocean trenches have in common?
Ocean trenches and volcanoes both occur where continental plates collide, or meet. An Ocean trench is also noted for the presence of a volcanic arc. This is right no joke:)
What are converge trenches?
Convergent trenches are deep oceanic features where two tectonic plates collide and one is forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This movement can lead to the formation of volcanic arcs, earthquakes, and the recycling of oceanic crust back into the mantle. Many of the Earth's largest and deepest earthquakes occur along convergent trenches.
When was DeepOcean created?
DeepOcean was created in 1999.
What are Deep underwater canyons called?
The oceans floor doesn't just keep getting wider instead the ocean floor plunges into deep underwater canyons called deepocean trenches.Where ever deep ocean trenches are there is subduction.
Where do shallow-focus earthquakes of the occur relative to ocean trenches?
within or adjacent to trenches
Do trenches occur at divergent boundaries?
that is false
Do Trenches occur at divergent plate boundaries.?
that is false
Why does an ocean trench occur?
oceanic trenches occur where tectonic plates collide and one is pushed underneath the other.
What are 2 geological features that can occur at plate boundaries?
Two geological features that can occur at plate boundaries are mountain ranges, formed from the collision of two plates, and deep ocean trenches, formed at subduction zones where one plate is forced beneath another.
Where does the deepest earthquakes occur?
treches. 300 km or below sea level.
Can earthquakes occur on the coast and by trenches?
Yes, depending whether the main cause was the volcano erupting.
Do Ocean Trenches Occur where plates are moving apart or where They are moving apart?
Ocean trenches occur where plates are moving towards each other and one plate is being pushed beneath the other in a process called subduction. Trenches are formed at convergent plate boundaries where oceanic crust is being forced downward into the mantle.
When and where the trench occurs?
Trenches occur by diverging plate boundries and normally at about 11,000 meters deep. This includes sea floor spreading which is where a new layer of crust forms at the mid ocean ridge and the old crust falls into trenches
Where do ocean trenches occur?
At spreading centers.
