Do lightning cause Earthquakes?
Lightning does not directly cause earthquakes. Earthquakes are typically caused by the movement of tectonic plates or volcanic activity. Lightning is a discharge of atmospheric electricity within a thunderstorm that does not have an impact on the Earth's crust to cause earthquakes.
Does dams cause earthquakes?
no
Why does an earthquake zone have earthquakes if no volcanoes are there?
Volcanoes are not the primary cause of earthquakes. Most earthquakes result from the stresses created by tectonic plates moving past or against one another. At transform boundaries there is no mechanism to produce volcanoes, but the movement of the plates will still cause earthquakes. Stresses within a plate can also cause earthquakes.
Can landslides be caused by plates in the earth moving?
Indirectly. The movement of tectonic plates is the cause of the majority of earthquakes. Earthquakes can cause landslides.
Can volcanoes cause earthquakes?
Yes, volcano eruptions can cause earthquakes; they can also be caused by earthquakes or occur at the same time.Yes. Earthquakes are common around active volcanoes. They are usually triggered by the movement of magma beneath the earth and the fracturing of rock that results. However, volcanic earthquakes are not very large and generally do not cause much damage directly.
