30 Οκτ 2024 · Figure 2.6.9 2.6. 9: Subduction of an oceanic plate beneath a continental plate, forming a trench and volcanic arc. Oceanic-continental subduction occurs when an oceanic plate dives below a continental plate. This convergent boundary has a trench and mantle wedge and frequently, a volcanic arc.
10 Φεβ 2024 · Convergent Boundaries (Destructive Boundaries or Active Margins): Here, plates move towards each other. Where they meet, they form either a continental collision or else a subduction zone where one plate moves under the other. An example of a convergent boundary is the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate, forming the Himalayas.
1) Convergent plate boundaries occur where tectonic plates are moving toward each other, resulting in the most intense volcanic and earthquake activity. 2) When oceanic plates converge, one plate is subducted under the other denser plate, forming deep sea trenches, volcanoes, and mountain ranges.
1 Ιαν 2007 · Map showing distribution of convergent and collisional plate boundaries, accomplished ICDP drilling, and possible drilling targets and areas discussed in the text.
10 Ιουν 2024 · Convergent boundaries, where two plates are moving toward each other, are of three types, depending on the type of crust present on either side of the boundary — oceanic or continental. The types are ocean-ocean, ocean-continent, and continent-continent.
Describe the processes that occur at convergent boundaries and explain how crust is recycled and continents are built. Describe the motion along transform boundaries and compare and contrast the two principal types of transform faults.
Divergent boundaries are constructive margins where crust is formed. Convergent boundaries are destructive margins where crust is destroyed through subduction.
