The Ring of Fire
The weakest earthquakes, measuring less than 2.0 on the Richter scale, can occur anywhere around the world. These earthquakes are generally not felt by people and are often only detected by seismographs.
The most earthquakes are mostly occurs on land
Earthquakes are not a seasonal phenomenon and so the time of year has no effect on the occurrence of earthquakes. As such, earthquakes can happen at any time of the year as they occur independent of weather and climate.
The deepest earthquakes occur at subduction zones where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another into the Earth's mantle. These earthquakes can occur as deep as 700 km below the surface.
Yes, earthquakes can happen underwater. When an earthquake occurs beneath the ocean, it can cause a tsunami if the magnitude is strong enough to displace a significant amount of water. Underwater earthquakes are monitored by seismologists to assess the potential risk of tsunamis.
Yes that is generally where most earthquakes occur
Earthquakes can generally occur anywhere in the world, but most happen at plate boundaries.
stress on rocks is greatest
The weakest earthquakes, measuring less than 2.0 on the Richter scale, can occur anywhere around the world. These earthquakes are generally not felt by people and are often only detected by seismographs.
The lithosphere is where earthquakes occur.
Earthquakes occur at all plate boundaries.
Earthquakes and volcanoes both occur in land and ocean. =)
Earthquakes
Intraplate earthquakes occur farther inland than other earthquakes. These earthquakes occur within a tectonic plate, away from plate boundaries where most earthquakes typically occur. Intraplate earthquakes can be caused by ancient faults or stress within the plate itself.
Earthquakes occur along a fault. Near the San Andreas fault lots of earthquakes occur.
Most earthquakes occur at or near the boundaries between tectonic plates.
Please more specific, as earthquakes occur worldwide.
