What tectonic plate is Russia located on?
Russia is located on two major tectonic plates: the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate. The largest portion of Russia lies on the Eurasian Plate, while the far eastern region, including parts of Siberia, is positioned on the North American Plate.
What crustal plate does Russia rest on?
Russia spans across multiple tectonic plates, primarily the Eurasian Plate. The western part of Russia lies on the Eurasian Plate, while the eastern part rests on the North American Plate and the Okhotsk Plate. The collision between these plates has led to the formation of mountain ranges such as the Ural Mountains and the Caucasus Mountains.
What kind of plate boundary is the klyuchevskaya sopka's on?
Klyuchevskaya Sopka is on the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia and is located near the boundary of the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate. This boundary is a convergent boundary, specifically a subduction zone where the Pacific Plate is being subducted beneath the North American Plate.
What plates causes shiveluch to form?
The formation of Shiveluch volcano is attributed to the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the North American Plate along the eastern edge of the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia. This subduction process has led to the melting of the crust, resulting in the formation of magma that eventually rises to the surface, creating the volcanic activity at Shiveluch.
What plate boundaries with the north american plate?
Is Guatemala in the north american plate? i kno i shouldn't be asking, but i desperately need the answer for my science project and theres no where to ask questions. please answer! thnx
Russia is located on what crustal plate?
eurasian plate
How Russia have largest land?
i think that it is because of Russia's plate boundaries and plate tectonics
What crustal plate is Russia on?
eurasian plate
What tectonic plate is Russia on?
Russia sits on the Eurasian Plate, the largest tectonic plate on Earth that spans across Eurasia. The western regions of Russia lie on the boundary between the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate, resulting in some seismic activity in the area.

What type of plate boundry is creating the shiveluch volcano in russia?
A convergent boundry is creating the shiveluch volcano in Russia. The Eurasian plate collides with the Pacific plate
What plate does Ohio live on?
Ohio, along with most of North America and parts of Russia and Greenland, lies on the North American Plate.
Is Europe a continent in north Africa?
No. Europe is on the Eurasian continental plate (along with most of Russia, and China), and Africa is on the African continental plate. Some of Russia is on the North American plate, and India is on its own continental plate, which is why it's called the Indian sub-continent - the Himalayas are being thrown up at about 6cm a year at the point where the Indian plate is crashing into the Eurasian plate. In mapping terms, plates do not strictly translate to continents, so all of Russia and Siberia is geographically on the continental land mass of Europe, even though physically half of it is on the North American plate (the land masses are separated by the Bering Strait). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Plates_tect2_en.svg

The North American plate is on what plate?
Canada, Alaska, The continental United States, parts of Russia, Greenland, part of Iceland, part of the Atlantic Ocean, and a number of islands.
Which tectonic plates are continental and which are oceanic?
The majority of the plates are going to be both, such as the African plate or the North American plate. The Pacific plate is an example of, guess which, the oceanic plates. I don't know the name of it right off the top of my head, but the only continental only plate I can think of is the one that covers Russia and most of Europe.
