Plate tectonics
You will need to know the follow:
The location and characteristics of tectonic activity
□ The global distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes
□ The reason why earthquakes and volcanoes are only found in certain areas, and the role of plate
boundaries in explaining this
□ How to draw a cross section of the main plate boundaries – convergent, divergent and
conservative
□ How we measure earthquake activity
□ How we locate the epicentre of earthquakes
Why people live in areas of tectonic activity
□ The economic, social and environmental reasons why people live in areas of tectonic activity
□ Examples that help us understand these reasons
The impacts of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
□ One case study of either an earthquake or a volcanic eruption showing the causes and
consequences of that event on the people and the environment
□ Some examples of how planning helps reduce the impact of both earthquakes and volcanic activity
