5 Σεπ 2024 · This map shows the major tectonic plates that make up Earth’s lithosphere. Tectonic plates are massive slabs of solid rock that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and move relative to one another. The movement of these plates can cause earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain building, and ocean trench formation.
30 Ιαν 2020 · Learn about the 21 major tectonic plates and their movements and boundaries with this 2006 USGS map. See how convergent, divergent, transform and diffuse boundaries affect the Earth's surface.
14 Ιουν 2004 · These images show the locations of the plates and their boundaries in the Earth's crust. Convergent boundaries are areas where two plates are pushing against each other and one plate may be subducting under another.
This map shows Tectonic Plates in light blue. Continents are shown in light brown. It also indicates Plate Boundaries in yellow. To see the name of each plate or boundary type, hover over the map. For more details, zoom in. Scroll down if you want to read more about Tectonic Plates and Boundaries.
