convergent oceanic-continental boundary
What else can I help you with?
The Ring of Fire is located along what type of plate boundaries?
The Ring of Fire is located along convergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates are colliding. This results in volcanoes, earthquakes, and the formation of mountain ranges around the Pacific Ocean.
Do shallow earthquakes seem to correlate to any particular type of plate boundary and what type of boundary?
Yes, shallow earthquakes are common in regions near transform plate boundaries and divergent plate boundaries. These boundaries are characterized by horizontal slipping and pulling apart of tectonic plates, respectively, which can generate shallow-focus earthquakes.
Which type of landform develop at plate boundaries where one oceanic plate descends beneath another?
Subduction zones occur at plate boundaries where one oceanic plate descends beneath another. This process leads to the formation of deep oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes due to the intense pressure and heat generated by the subduction of the oceanic plate.
Which type of plate boundary creates the ring of fire?
The ring of fire is created by convergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates collide and one is forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. This leads to volcanic activity and seismic events around the Pacific Ocean.
Breaks between plates are known as what?
Breaks between plates are known as plate boundaries. These boundaries can be divergent, convergent, or transform, and the type of boundary determines the type of interactions between the plates.
What type of plate boundary does compression occur?
Converging Plate Boundaries
What type of plate boundarries found in andesitic valcano?
Plate boundaries are not found in volcanoes.Volcanoes occur along plate boundaries usually along convergent boundaries
What type of plate boundary causes volcanic eruptions?
There are two plate boundaries that cause volcanoes. They are the divergent and convergent plate boundaries.
What type of plate of plate boundary causes mountains?
Convergent Boundaries.
What type of fault is a volcano?
A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.
Are there maps of plate boundaries for mt st Helen's?
Yeah there are maps for the Mt St Helens plate boundaries. Type into google Juan de Fuca plate boundaries It is a destructive plate boundary
What type of movement occurs at plate boundaries?
Convergent,Divergent, and Transform Boundaries
What type of plate causes earthquakes?
Convergent Boundaries
Which type of plate boundary does rift volcanism occur?
Divergent plate boundaries n_n ;*
What type of plate boundary form of mountains?
Mountains form at convergent plate boundaries.
What is a fault of a volcano?
A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.
Are plate tectonic plate boundaries?
There are three main types of plate tectonic boundaries: divergent boundaries, where plates move apart; convergent boundaries, where plates collide; and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally. Each type of boundary has its own characteristic geologic features and tectonic activity.
