What geologic processes and or phenomena is not found at transform plate boundaries?

At transform plate boundaries, processes like subduction and seafloor spreading do not occur. Instead, these boundaries are characterized by the sliding past of two tectonic plates horizontally. There is no creation or destruction of crust at transform boundaries, only sideways movement.


Is avalanche a geologic or atmospheric?

Avalanches are geologic events that occur when a mass of snow and ice rapidly falls down a mountainside. They are not directly associated with atmospheric conditions, although weather patterns can influence the likelihood of avalanches occurring.


What geologic events occur at the san Andreas fault?

The San Andreas Fault is primarily known for its seismic activity, resulting from the lateral sliding of the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. This transform fault experiences frequent earthquakes, ranging from minor tremors to significant seismic events, often causing ground shaking and surface rupture. Additionally, the fault can lead to secondary geologic phenomena, such as landslides and ground deformation, impacting the landscape around it. Over time, the accumulation of stress along the fault line can result in major seismic events that release this energy.

What are the three types of plate boundries?

The three types of plate boundaries are divergent boundaries, where plates move away from each other; convergent boundaries, where plates move towards each other; and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally.
