Slide 4
Here is the deepest part of the ocean which two plate collided
which resulted in one sub ducting under the other In this case it
is the pacific (oceanic) and the Eurasian(continental) Marianas/
Trench http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5D3VkGkU5Dw
Slide 5
Two oceanic plates collide and one sub ducts, then debris and
materials will reach the surface then forming volcanic island
strings Called Island Arcs Japan
Slide 6
Islands that are filled with shield volcanoes Formed by hot
spots in the pacific plate The pacific plate would carry the island
away and another would come up in its place Hawaii

Slide 7
volcanoes in an arc in North America Subduction in the Cascadia
Subduction zone Juan de Fuca and the Pacific are responsible for
this Pacific NW Cascade volcanoes

Slide 8
A large continental transform fault line Where two plates slide
past each other Pacific plate and the North American are at work
San Andreas Fault http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxPTLmg0ZCw
Slide 9
This is result of two plates (oceanic and continental)
subducting underneath one another Nazca and South American are the
ones causing this Peru-Chile Trench
Slide 10
This is divergence of different plates Also part of the longest
mountain range in the world but it is underneath water Eurasian
Plate North American Plate, Goes through Iceland causing some
volcanic action Mid Atlantic Ridge, Iceland
Slide 11
This area is where plates diverge Here the Arabian and the
African plate are moving away from each other African Rift Valley

Slide 12
This is an example of convergence in my homeland The Indian
plate and the Eurasian plate both continental hit each other
creating fold mountains because of the compressing of everything
Himalayan Mountains
Slide 13
small volcanic islands, forming part of the Aleutian Arc
Pacific plate is plunging under the North American plate, rather
than grinding against it The material come to the surface and form
a volcanic arc Aleutian Islands
Slide 14
Convergence happens here and the Between the Australian-Indian
plate and the Eurasian Java Trench
