The Impact Of Plate Tectonics on the Caribbean * The Caribbean Plate is a mostly oceanic tectonic plate underlying Central America and the Caribbean Sea off the north coast of South America. * Volcanic activity in the Caribbean itself‚ as distinct from Central America‚ is largely limited to the eastern Caribbean. Here‚ the Caribbean plate‚ moving approximately west to east‚ meets the North American plate‚ which is moving approximately east to west. This creates what is known as a seductions

The Juan De Fuca tectonic plate is found on the west coast of North America. It is next to the North American plate‚ and according to America’s Tectonics‚ the Juan de Fuca plate is getting subducted under it. This plate is made of oceanic crust‚ but it is also basaltic in some areas. It was named after the pilot and sailor‚ Juan de Fuca‚ an explorer from Europe in the 1600s. The Juan de Fuca plate has a divergent boundary in the Juan de Fuca ridge. New material is made by the Juan de Fuca ridge

Plate tectonics provide the perfect clues to where and what seismic hazard will occur? Discuss. It is at the boundaries of the planet’s tectonic plates that most of the world’s major landforms occur and where earthquakes‚ volcanic and mountain building zones are located. The surface of the planet is made up of seven large and several smaller rigid tectonic plates which float on the semi-molton asthenosphere; the movement of these plates is influenced by the convection cells under the lithosphere

In mathematics‚ a real number is a value that represents a quantity along a continuous line. The real numbers include all the rational numbers‚ such as the integer −5 and the fraction 4/3‚ and all the irrational numbers such as √2 (1.41421356... the square root of two‚ an irrational algebraic number) and π (3.14159265...‚ a transcendental number). Real numbers can be thought of as points on an infinitely long line called the number line or real line‚ where the points corresponding to integers are
