Small tremors before a major earthquake are referred to as foreshocks. They occur before 70 percent of large seismic events, and to a lesser extent before smaller earthquakes.
The low bedrock ridges and peaks of a highly eroded basin and range desert landscape are called insellbergs. Deposits of windblown salt are called loess.
Primary waves (p waves)
This is known as the magnitude of the earthquake.
Yes, it is like a shrinking conveyor belt. If the conveyor belt stops moving, then it is no longer classified a glacier; it is then an ice field.
Seismic gap.
In regards to "sand dunes" they migrate in the direction of the wind as sand particles being individually light can travel on the wind in forms of "sand storms" and therefore migrate overtime, create new dunes or reshape existing dune structures by either adding or withdrawing sand from the wind directions movement.
The 3 main types of glacial erosion are plucking, abrasion and freeze thaw.
the relationship between earthquakes magnitude is the size or amount of energy an earthquake produces and has no connection to hour often earthquakes occur.
there is little chemical weathering to round the landscapes
It causes the ground at the ocean floor to shift, resulting in the displacement of water. The beginnings of a potential tsunami!
