Plate Boundaries Key Questions
• 1. What are the features at a convergent boundary?
• 2. What are the features at a divergent boundary?
• 3. What are the features at a transform boundary?
Convergent Plate Boundary
1. Oceanic-Oceanic2. Continental-
Continental3. Continental-
Oceanic
Features:• Mountains• Trenches• Volcanoes
Continental-Oceanic Convergent Boundary
More dense Oceanic plate subducts (slides) below the Continental plate.
Features:o Trencheso Volcanoeso Mountains
Oceanic-Oceanic Convergent Boundary
• Subduction
of the older more dense
Oceanic Plate
• Forms a trench or
volcanic islands
Continental-Continental The plates buckle up and forms mountain ranges .
Features of Divergent Boundary:
Mid-Ocean Ridge
Rift Valleys
Volcanoes
Transform Boundaries
• Earthquakes occur at transform boundaries.
World’s Largest Earthquake9.5 Magnitude, Chile 1960
World’s Largest Earthquake
• 9.5 Magnitude• Southern Chile 1960• Estimated 5,700 killed• 3,000 injured• 717 initially missing
from Chile• 2,000,000 people left
homeless• 58,622 houses
completely destroyed
Transform Plate Boundary
Features:• Earthquakes• Faults
California San Andres Fault
• Fault line: San Andres Fault
• Transform Boundary
• Fence line moved 8.5 feet
• 1906 • San Francisco
Earthquake
California on 2 Tectonic Plates
• Los Angeles on the Pacific Plate
• Rest of USA on the North American Plate
• Fault line: San Andres Fault
