A transform boundary is a place where two tectonic plates slide past each other, creating strike-slip faults and earthquakes. Learn how transform boundaries differ from divergent and convergent boundaries, and see some examples of transform faults on land and sea.
Learn about transform boundaries, where the lithospheric plates slide past each other horizontally, causing earthquakes, mountains, or basins. See examples of transform faults, transpression, transtension, and piercing points.
17 Ιαν 2020 · Transform boundaries are areas where the Earth's plates move past each other, rubbing along the edges. They are strike-slip faults that neither create nor destroy land, but can cause earthquakes. Learn about the different types of transform boundaries, seafloor spreading, and continental transforms.
Learn what transform plate boundaries are and how they form when two plates slide past each other. See examples of transform faults in the ocean and on land, and how they differ from strike-slip faults.
Learn what transform boundaries are, how they form, and how they cause earthquakes. See examples of transform faults and how to identify their motion type.
Transform boundaries are plate boundaries where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other. Learn how transform boundaries cause earthquakes and volcanoes, and see illustrations and examples from around the world.
Learn how tectonic plates slip horizontally past each other at transform plate boundaries, creating earthquakes, lateral displacement and crustal deformation. Explore the landscapes and geology of NPS sites along the San Andreas Fault in California and the Caribbean Plate in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
