very long time. The last eruption was in 8051 BC. Mount Garibaldi began erupting about 250‚000 years ago and has grown steadily since then. Like most of the Cascade volcanoes‚ it has its own origins in the Cascadia subduction zone; a long convergent plate boundary that stretches from mid- Vancouver Island to Northern California. The first European to see the mountain in 1792‚ Captain George Vancouver‚ traded with the local natives in the area. When skiing became popular in the 1940s‚ Vancouver skiers

The Andes were formed due to the compression‚ the act of tending to come together from different direction of plate boundary‚ just off the western coast of the continent of South America. The oceanic crust is being forced against the continental crust which forms the continent of South America. The collision causes it to build up which causes deformation (changing

US. Earthquakes California lies on a conservative plate boundary where the Pacific plate and the North American plate are the components. There are separated by a transform fault‚ known as the San Andreas Fault. The Pacific plate is moving north comparative to the North American plate however the fault is not smooth and so friction between the plates occur causing plates to lock. The continued pressure created by the movement of the plates around these locked portions of the fault causes the crust

off the North East Coast of Japans main island Honshu. Why? Japan is located on the eastern edge of the Eurasian Plate. The Pacific Plate‚ which is an oceanic plate‚ subducts the Eurasian plate‚ which is a continental plate‚ to the east of Japan. This type of plate margin is known as a destructive plate margin. The process of subduction is not smooth. Friction causes the Pacific Plate to stick. Pressure builds and is released as an earthquake. So what? The earthquake occurred at a relatively shallow

this catastrophe was because Japan is located on the east edge of the Eurasian Plate‚ therefore the Oceanic Pacific Plate was subducted under the Eurasian Plate. This plate margin is known as a Destructive plate boundary. The reason behind the huge 9 magintude earthqauke is because when the Oceanic Plate was being subducted under the Eurasian Plate‚ tension was built up‚ the tension then became too much for the plates to hold‚
