Convergent Boundary is one of the three different kinds of plates that cause earthquakes. The Convergent Boundary is the coming together of plates while Divergent Boundaries are the pulling apart of plates.
1. Oceanic-oceanic convergent plate boundary. 2. Continental-continental convergent plate boundary. and 3. Oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary.
At a convergent plate boundary, two tectonic plates are moving towards each other. As the plates collide, one plate is forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This can lead to the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes.
Phopotatodoftny is also known as a convergent plate boundary.
Mount Rainier, Washington, isn't located on a divergent plate boundary but a convergent one. The Juan de Fuca Plate off the coast is pushing under the northern US and Canada, creating volcanism (such as Mt St Helens).
Vesuvius is associated with a convergent boundary between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate.

Yes, subducting plate boundaries are a type of convergent plate boundary where one tectonic plate moves under another plate. Convergent plate boundaries, in general, are locations where two tectonic plates move towards each other. Subduction is a specific mechanism of convergence.
