TECTONIC PLATE BOUNDARIES
-Convection currents move downward -Lithosphere is destroyed -The denser plate slides beneath the other -Landforms: Oceanic trenches, Island Arcs -Geological processes: Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
Japan
Oceanic-oceanic convergent boundaries
Convergent boundary
-Convection currents move downward -Lithosphere is destroyed -The denser plate slides beneath the other -Landforms: Mountain ranges, oceanic trenches and continental arcs -Geological processes: Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
San Andreas Fault
Transform boundaries
-Convection currents move downward -Lithosphere is destroyed -The denser plate slides beneath the other -Landforms: Mountain ranges -Geological processes: Earthquakes
Andes
Continental-oceanic convergent boundaries
Convergent boundary
Red Sea
-Convection currents move upwards -The lithosphere is generated -Two plates move away from each other -Landforms: Oceanic ridges -Geological processes: Earthquakes
Oceanic divergent boundary
Divergent boundaries
-Possible consequences: Loss of human life, destruction of infrastructure, displacement of populations, air and water pollution, ash and falling material, climate alterations, impact on the local economy, changes in the landscape, risk of future natural disasters and alteration of biodiversity. -This hazard can’t be prevented or avoided -Ways to to mitigate the effects: Geological monitoring, scientific research, evacuation plans, interinstitutional coordination and brand awareness
Taal volcano
Rift valley (Africa)
-Convection currents move upwards -The lithosphere begins to weaken and ends up destroyed -Two tectonic plates move away from each other -Landforms: Rifts, origin of an ocean in the middle of a continent -Geological processes: Earthquakes and volcanoes
Continental divergent boundary
Divergent boundaries
-Possible consequences: Damage to infrastructure, human losses, displacement and migration, economic impact, public service crisis, mental health effects and environmental destruction. -This hazard can’t be prevented or avoided -Ways to mitigate the effects: Earthquake-resistant construction, planning and regulation, early warning systems and monitoring and study.
California
Himalaya
-Convection current move downward -The lithosphere is destroyed -Two continental plates move towards each other -Landforms: Mountain ranges -Geological processes: Earthquakes
