Where is most spreading zones found?
Most spreading zones, also known as mid-ocean ridges, are found along the ocean floor where tectonic plates diverge. These zones are primarily located in the Atlantic Ocean, particularly the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, as well as in the Pacific Ocean, including the East Pacific Rise. Spreading zones are characterized by volcanic activity and the creation of new oceanic crust as magma rises from the mantle.
What causes so many earthquakes in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?
Earthquakes are actually very rare in the Atlantic Ocean as the only subduction zones in the Atlantic basin are along the eastern edge of the Caribbean Plate and the eastern edge of the Scotia Plate. Since these subduction zones are small, they are not exceptionally active and that accounts for the low incidence of earthquakes. Hope this helps.
