Because fat people live near fault lines and them waddling around causes the plates to shift
What else can I help you with?
Why are earthquakes more likely to happen in some parts of the world than others?
It has to do with stress in the earth's crust. There are more earthquakes where there is more stress. Most of this occurs at the boundaries between the tectonic plates as they slowly grind against each other.
What season do earthquakes occur?
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.
Are there more earthquakes under the sea than on land?
Yes, there are more earthquakes under the sea than on land because the majority of Earth's tectonic plate boundaries are located beneath the ocean. These plate boundaries are where most earthquakes occur due to the movement of the plates.
Which is the most common tectonic or volcanic earthquakes?
Tectonic earthquakes are more common than volcanic earthquakes. Tectonic earthquakes are caused by the shifting and breaking of rocks in the Earth's crust along tectonic plate boundaries, whereas volcanic earthquakes are associated with volcanic activity and occur as magma moves beneath the surface.
Why Do More Earthquakes Occur In The Northern Hemisphere?
I am not sure that they actually do have more Earthquakes in the Northern hemisphere. However, as the Northern Hemisphere has more land mass than the Southern hemisphere, more land based Earthquakes will inevitably be detected.
Does tsnamis occur in some places than other?
Tsunamis can occur in more places than others because of their location. Usually, areas which see many underwater earthquakes are more prone to have tsunamis. The west coast and Hawaii are two places where tsunamis can take place.
Why do earthquakes occur more often in some places than in others?
Because fat people live near fault lines and them waddling around causes the plates to shift
Do earthquakes occur under the sea?
Yes, it is quite common for earthquakes to occur under the sea. But they can also occur under the land. Any location on the Earth's surface (or close to the Earth's surface, to be more accurate) can have an earthquake, although of course, some locations are more prone to earthquakes than others.
Why do earthquakes occur more often in some places that in others?
They occur because of nature. Volcanic eruptions signal off an earthquake because normally a volcanic eruption and an earthquake are on a fault line/edge of a tectonic plate.
Do most earthquakes occur around earthquake valley?
Please more specific, as earthquakes occur worldwide.
Do earthquakes occur more frequently in the interior plates?
No. The vast majority of earthquakes occur at or near plate boundaries.
Why are earthquakes more likely to happen in some parts of the world than others?
It has to do with stress in the earth's crust. There are more earthquakes where there is more stress. Most of this occurs at the boundaries between the tectonic plates as they slowly grind against each other.
Which plate earthquakes occur at?
Earthquakes can occur anywhere on Earth but large ones are more common at destructive plate bookbinderies.
Do the Andes have more earthquakes or tornadoes?
The Andes are more prone to earthquakes as they are located at, and were in fact formed by, a subduction zone just to the west of South America. Tornadoes are more common in the interior and eastern parts of South America.
What type of countries has earthquakes?
Everywhere on the planet suffers from earthquakes at some time. However there ares some places where earthquakes, particularly bad earthquakes, are more frequent. These places are located at continental margins.
Why are some places more at risk of an earthquake than others?
Some places are more at risk of earthquakes due to their proximity to tectonic plate boundaries, where the Earth's crust is more likely to shift and cause seismic activity. Areas along fault lines or subduction zones are particularly prone to earthquakes. Additionally, regions with a history of seismic activity are more likely to experience earthquakes in the future.
What season do earthquakes occur?
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.
