Active Earth Major Geological Events Caused by Moving Plates Types of Faults Plate Tectonics Other Interesting Facts Some Names Of Earth’s Plates Divergent Faults A picture of a divergent fault • Describe a divergent faults • Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) • Give an example where one exists in the world today Convergent Faults A picture of a convergent fault • Describe a convergent faults • Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) • Give an example where one exists in the world today Transform Faults A picture of a transform fault • Describe a Transform fault • Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) • Give an example where one exists in the world today Earthquake and Volcanoes Characteristics of Earthquakes Earthquakes How they are alike Characteristics of Volcanoes Volcanoes Drag and drop to label for divergent plates Label the Tectonic Plates as divergent or convergent Drag and drop to label for convergent plates Label the longitude and latitude of 20 earthquakes and 20 volcanoes Notable Volcanic Eruptions of the 20th Century Year Latitude Longitude Location 1902 13 N 61 W Soufrière, St. Vincent 1902 15 N 61 W Mount Pelée, Martinique 1902 15 N 91 W Santa Maria, Guatemala 1907 51 N 157 E Ksudach, Kamchatka, Russia 1911 15 N 121 E Taal, Luzon, Philippines 1912 58 N 155 W Katmal/ Novarupta, Alaska 1914 41 N 123 W Lassen Peak, California 1919 8S 112 E Kelut, Java, Indonesia 1930 7S 110 E Merapi, Java, Indonesia 1932 36 S 71 W Quizapú, Chile 1943 19 N 102 W Paracutín, Mexico 1951 9S 148 E Lamington, Papua New Guinea 1956 56 N 161 E Bezymyannaya, Kamchatka, Russia 1963 63 N 20 W Surtsey, Iceland 1963 8S 115 E Agung, Bali, Indonesia 1980 46 N 122 W Mount St. Helens, Washington 1982 18 N 93 W El Chichón, Mexico 1985 5N 75 W Nevado del Ruiz, Colombia 1991 16 N 120 E Pinatubo, Luzon, Philippines 1991 47 S 73 W Cerro Hudson, Chile Notable Earthquakes of the 20th Century Year Latitude Longitude Magnitude Location 1906 38N 123 W 8.3 San Francisco, CA 1908 38 N 15 E 7.5 Messina, Italy 1923 35 N 140 E 8.2 Kwanio, Japan 1939 40 N 40 E 8.0 Erzincan, Turkey 1948 36 N 136 E 7.3 Honshu, Japan 1960 40 S 73 W 8.5 Southern Chile 1964 61 N 148 W 8.5 Southern Alaska 1970 9S 79 W 7.8 Northern Peru 1976 8N 124 E 8.1 Mindano, Philippines 1976 15 N 89 W 7.5 Guatemala 1980 36 N 1E 7.4 El Asnam, Algeria 1985 18 N 103 W 8.1 Michocán, Mexico 1988 41 N 44 E 6.8 Armenia 1989 37 N 122 W 7.1 Loma Prieta, CA 1990 38 N 50 E 7.6 Western Iran 1992 34 N 117 W 7.1 Landers, CA 1994 34 N 119 W 6.7 Northridge, CA 1994 14 S 68 W 8.3 Northern Bolivia 1994 44 N 145 E 8.3 Kuril Islands, Japan 1995 35 N 135 E 6.9 Kobe, Japan Conclusion • What conclusion can your draw as to what causes earthquakes and volcanoes?
