Plate tectonics
Things falling on people.
Earthquakes have caused more deaths than hurricanes, and hurricanes have caused more deaths than lightning.
Earthquakes and volcanoes frequently occur where edges of the earths plates are colliding and or moving away from another.
Earthquakes happen most along tectonic plate boundaries, such as the Pacific Ring of Fire. This is because the movement of tectonic plates causes stress to build up until it is released in the form of an earthquake. Areas where two plates meet, such as subduction zones or transform faults, are especially prone to earthquakes.
Plate tectonics can create mountains. Plate Tectonics can also cause earthquakes in California.
Earthquakes that causes most damage when two plates crashed and one plate moves upwards vertically than the other plate.
Physical weathering is any process that causes erosion. Volcanic eruptions, wind, precipitation and earthquakes are the most common forms.
Most earthquakes occur at the boundaries of the tectonic plates. Tectonic plates are always in motion, and when two of them collide with one another it causes earthquakes.

Of these things, earthquakes are the only ones that can cause tsunamis.
Aftershocks cause the most earthquake-related deaths and injuries.
earthquakes that produce more horizontal
That would be the San Andreas fault line.
Seismologists would be most concerned with studying and monitoring earthquakes, including their occurrence, intensity, and potential impact on society. They focus on understanding the causes of earthquakes, predicting their likelihood, and developing tools to mitigate their effects.
Earthquakes have caused more deaths than hurricanes, and hurricanes have caused more deaths than lightning.
Tectonic stress causes most earthquakes. This stress is generated as tectonic plates move and collide with each other, building up pressure that is eventually released as an earthquake. Other types of stress, such as volcanic or anthropogenic activities, can also trigger earthquakes in specific circumstances.
