EyjafjallajΓΆkull is located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, which is the boundary between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. So technically, it is on the divide between two tectonic plates.
Underground plates are called tectonic plates. These plates are large pieces of the Earth's lithosphere that move and interact with each other, causing phenomena such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
The lithosphere is the layer that moves with the tectonic plates. The lithosphere is made up of the crust and the upper part of the mantle, and it is broken into tectonic plates that move and interact with each other.
Bali is located on two tectonic plates, the Australian Plate and the Eurasian Plate. These plates interact along the Sunda Megathrust, which can result in seismic activity in the region.
There are around 15-20 minor tectonic plates on Earth, in addition to the major plates that comprise the Earth's lithosphere. These minor plates are smaller in size compared to the major plates and play a role in the movement and dynamics of tectonic activity.
They are called tectonic or lithospheric plates.
Tectonic plates and fault lines created by the movement of tectonic plates.
Tectonic plates are also "Continental Crust" and "Oceanic Crust". Also lithospheric plates.
Yes, tectonic plates are also known as crustal plates.
harry hess named the tectonic plates but I'm not sure why =/
there are 7 huge plates but dozens of smaller plates
Continental plates are a type of tectonic plate that consist mostly of continental crust, which is thicker and less dense than oceanic crust. Tectonic plates refer to the larger pieces of the Earth's lithosphere that move and interact with each other, including both continental and oceanic plates.
No the tectonic plates are on top of the crust.
Yes. Tectonic plates are in fact mostly solid.
The tectonic plates float on the lithosphere. This overlies the asthenosphere.
continents are tectonic plates! so.... yes!
Interactions between tectonic plates occur at plate boundaries.
