In 16 million years, the plates will have moved so much that Los Angeles will be north of San Francisco! The Sea Floor Spread (divergent boundary) The Continental Slide (convergent boundary) ...

The Cascadia Subduction Zone is a megathrust fault or the meeting of two tectonic plates. The Juan de Fuca plate is being forced under the North American plate at a convergent boundary.

The Cascadia Subduction Zone is a megathrust fault or the meeting of two tectonic plates. The Juan de Fuca plate is being forced under the North American plate at a convergent boundary.

These convergent boundaries also occur where a plate of ocean dives, in a process called subduction, under a landmass. As the overlying plate lifts up, it also forms mountain ranges.

Plate tectonics is the means through which mountains are formed. The Baird Mountains in Alaska’s Kobuk Valley National Park formed when two tectonic plates along a convergent boundary collided ...

The observed changes in site velocity define a sharp boundary near the centre of the province oriented roughly parallel to the north-northwest relative plate motion vector.

A new active fault system has been discovered off the coast of Portugal, which scientists believe could be the first signs of an eventual convergence of the North American and Eurasian tectonic ...
