Plate tectonics involves the movement of rigid tectonic plates that make up the lithosphere. There are three types of plate boundaries: convergent boundaries where plates collide, divergent boundaries where plates move apart, and transform boundaries where plates slide past each other. Convergent boundaries can be subduction zones where one plate is forced under another, causing volcanoes and earthquakes. Divergent boundaries form new crust through seafloor spreading at ocean ridges or rift valleys on land. Transform boundaries experience stress buildup and release as earthquakes when plates cannot smoothly pass each other.

The document summarizes the three main types of plate boundaries: convergent boundaries, where two plates collide; divergent boundaries, where two plates move apart; and transform boundaries, where two plates slide past each other. Convergent boundaries can involve subduction and result in mountain building. Divergent boundaries create new crust and can form undersea ridges or inland rifts. Transform boundaries cause earthquakes as stress builds up from friction between sliding plates.

Wegener's continental drift hypothesis proposed that the continents were once joined together in a supercontinent called Pangaea before breaking apart around 200 million years ago. Evidence for continental drift includes matching fossils found on separate continents, matching rock types and mountain structures that end at one coastline and reappear across an ocean, and indications of ancient shared climates. Plate tectonics theory holds that the lithosphere, the rigid outer layer of Earth, is broken into plates that move over the asthenosphere in the upper mantle. There are three types of plate boundaries: divergent where plates move apart, convergent where they move together, and transform where they grind past each other.
Theory of Plate Tectonics
The document discusses plate tectonics and the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into plates that glide over the mantle. It describes three main types of plate boundaries: convergent boundaries where plates collide, divergent boundaries where plates move apart, and transform boundaries where plates slide past each other. Convergent boundaries can involve subduction zones and result in mountain building. Divergent boundaries create new crust and can form undersea ridges or split continents. Transform boundaries cause earthquakes as stress builds up between sliding plates.

There are three types of convergent plate boundaries: continental-oceanic, oceanic-oceanic, and continental-continental. At a continental-oceanic boundary, an oceanic plate subducts under a continental plate, forming a trench where earthquakes often occur. As the oceanic plate subducts into the mantle, it melts and rises as magma, forming volcanic arcs at the surface. At an oceanic-oceanic boundary, the older, denser oceanic plate subducts under the younger plate, creating volcanic island arcs. A continental-continental boundary results in crustal crumpling and mountain formation as the plates cannot subduct through each other.
Plate margins
There are two types of crust - continental and oceanic - and three directions of plate movement - converging, diverging, and passive. This results in six plate boundary types: destructive (oceanic-continental convergence), destructive (oceanic-oceanic convergence), destructive (continental-continental collision), constructive (diverging at ocean ridges), constructive (continental rifting), and conservative (passive movement). Each boundary type creates different landforms and hazards due to the associated geological processes.

The document discusses the internal structure and composition of the Earth. It describes how temperature, pressure, and density increase towards the core. The Earth has a solid inner core made of iron and nickel, a liquid outer core also made of iron and nickel, a thick mantle made of silicate rocks, and a thin crust on top. Seismic data is used to determine this internal structure.

Plate tectonics theory proposes that the Earth's outer layer is made up of plates that constantly move atop a hotter, more mobile layer. There are three main types of plate boundaries - convergent where plates meet and one subducts under the other, divergent where new crust is formed as plates move apart, and transform where plates slide past each other. Plate tectonics causes landforms like mountains to form and is responsible for geological events like volcanoes and earthquakes.
Earth Science. Geosphere, Plate Tectonic Notes
The document discusses plate tectonics and the structure of the Earth. It explains that Earth's outer layer is divided into plates that move over Earth's mantle in a constant state of motion. This motion of plates causes continental drift and is responsible for geological features and events like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain building. The theory of plate tectonics developed in the 1960s to explain phenomena like sea floor spreading and the movement of continents over geologic time.

Notes on living with tectonic hazards n levels
1. Tectonic hazards such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are caused by movements of the Earth's crust along tectonic plates. The plates move due to convection currents in the upper mantle and subduction of denser oceanic plates under lighter continental plates.
2. Where plates diverge, mid-ocean ridges and rift valleys are formed. As plates converge, fold mountains like the Himalayas or Andes are formed. Transform boundaries like the San Andreas Fault cause earthquakes as the plates slide past each other.
3. Volcanoes form at plate boundaries due to upwelling of magma. Shield volcanoes have low, broad slopes while stratovolcanoes

Notes on living with tectonic hazards 0 levels
Tectonic hazards such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are caused by movements of the Earth's crustal plates. The internal structure of the Earth consists of a crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. The crust is broken into plates that move due to convection currents in the mantle and the sinking of denser plates. Plate boundaries include divergent boundaries where plates move apart, convergent boundaries where they move together, and transform boundaries where they slide past each other. Landforms associated with plate tectonics include mid-ocean ridges, rift valleys, fold mountains, trenches, and volcanoes. Earthquakes occur along plate boundaries when built-up stress is suddenly released during plate movement.
Types of plate boundaries
There are three main types of plate boundaries:
1) Convergent boundaries, where plates collide and can result in mountain building or subduction and volcanism.
2) Divergent boundaries, where plates move apart and rift valleys and ocean ridges are formed.
3) Transform boundaries, where plates slide past one another horizontally, causing earthquakes along faults but neither creating nor destroying crust.
Chapter 1 plate tectonics power point
The document summarizes key aspects of plate tectonics theory, including:
1) Earth is made up of layers with different densities and properties, including the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core.
2) The lithosphere is made of tectonic plates that move over time, splitting and colliding in various ways. This explains continental drift and the movement of continents.
3) Tectonic plates interact at three main types of boundaries - divergent where plates move apart, convergent where they push together, and transform where they slide past each other. These boundary interactions shape Earth's surface over geological time.

Earthquake wreaks havoc in the Philippines more than 1,000 people are killed when a 7.7-magnitude earthquake strikes Luzon Island in the Philippines on this day in 1990. The massive tremor wreaked havoc across a sizeable portion of Luzon, the country’s largest island, with Baguio City suffering the most devastating effects.
The epicenter of the quake, which struck at 4:26 p.m., was north of Manila in the Nueva Ecija province. Reports indicate that the shaking went on for nearly a full minute. Collapsing buildings were the main cause of damage and death. Getting out of a multi-story building was a good safety precaution that afternoon, although many people were injured and a few even died in stampedes of others doing the same thing.
At Christian College, a six-story building completely collapsed, trapping approximately 250 students and teachers inside. Heroic rescue efforts saved many, but some victims who did not die in the collapse were found dead later from dehydration because they were not pulled out in time.
All types of buildings, including several resort hotels in Baguio, known as the
Philippines’ Summer Capital, suffered tremendous damage. Most of the city’s 100,000
residents slept outdoors that evening and during the following week, afraid to return to
their homes amid the frequent aftershocks. For days, workers pulled bodies from the
demolished buildings in Baguio. The best estimate is that 1,000 bodies were eventually
recovered. At least another 1,000 people suffered serious injuries. Rescue efforts were
hampered severely because the three main roads into the city were blocked by landslides. Hundreds of motorists were stranded on the roads as well.
A fault is a fracture or zone of fractures between two blocks of
rock. Faults allow the blocks to move relative to each other.
This movement may occur rapidly, in the form of an earthquake - or may occur slowly, in the form of creep. Faults may range in length from a few millimeters to thousands of kilometers. Most faults produce repeated displacements over geologic time.
The ground in the area of fault tends to remain not moving
because of frictional force between the two opposing plates (boxes). As stronger forces (rubber band) shakes up the fault, the friction (tape) can no longer hold up the plates (box) thus resulting to a slip in the plates t
The Theory of Tectonic Plates 7.3.ppt
The document summarizes plate tectonics and tectonic plate boundaries. There are three main types of plate boundaries - convergent where plates move towards each other, divergent where they move apart, and transform where they slide past each other. At convergent boundaries, mountain ranges form at continental-continental collisions while subduction zones and volcanoes form at oceanic-continental and oceanic-oceanic collisions. New seafloor is created at divergent boundaries through sea floor spreading as magma rises between separating plates. Transform boundaries create earthquakes as plates grind past each other.

Convergent boundaries occur where tectonic plates collide. There are three main types - oceanic-oceanic, oceanic-continental, and continental-continental - which are distinguished by the plates involved and the resulting geological features. Common features of convergent boundaries include mountain ranges, trenches, and volcanic arcs. They are also associated with natural hazards like earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis. Subduction zones, where one plate sinks under another, drive the formation of convergent boundaries and contribute to mountain building.

FOSSILS.pptx
This document discusses fossils and their formation. It introduces five presenters and lists their contact details. The objectives are to explain how fossils prove life has changed over time, appreciate the work of geologists and archaeologists, and understand fossil formation. Fossils are remains or evidence of ancient species preserved in sedimentary rock. There are five fossil types: mold, cast, petrified, carbon film, and trace fossils. The formation process involves remains being buried and slowly replaced with minerals over millions of years.
HOTSPOT.pptx
The Hawaiian Islands were formed by hot spot volcanic activities under the Pacific Plate. Mantle plumes rise from the Earth's mantle, forming hot spots on the surface. As the plate moves over the hot spot, a chain of volcanoes is created. The newest volcanoes are above the hot spot and are the most active. Kilauea and Mauna Loa are the most active volcanoes in Hawaii today, having last erupted in 1984 and 2018 respectively. The Hawaiian Islands demonstrate how hot spots can form new land in the middle of tectonic plates.

This document discusses different types of seaweed (macroalgae) including red, green, and brown algae. It provides details on their classification, structure, where they are found, and their economic importance. It notes that seaweeds are not plants but are divided into three major groups based on pigmentation. While seaweeds provide numerous benefits like food and oxygen production, increased eutrophication and salinity changes in the Baltic Sea are allowing a less beneficial type of seaweed to spread, threatening the ecosystem.
2018_12_5_coralspost (1).pptx
Coastal ecosystems like coral reefs have high productivity and biodiversity due to dynamic spatial gradients in factors like salinity, temperature, light, and nutrients. Coral reefs specifically proliferate in warm, shallow, saline waters. Corals are colonial animals whose polyps secrete calcium carbonate to form hard structures over time. Corals have a symbiotic relationship with algae called zooxanthellae, which provide nutrients through photosynthesis. Corals reproduce both asexually through fragmentation and sexually through broadcast spawning or brooding.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

- 1. PLATE TECTONICS: Type of Plate Boundaries • Plates rigid sections of the lithosphere that move as a unit. • The movement of the plate is called Tectonic. • Plate Boundaries are the lines at the edges of the different pieces of the lithosphere.
- 2. • Plate tectonic theory explains the surface of the earth is broken into large and small lithospheric plates which are moving slowly. - causing intense geologic activity, such as earthquakes, volcano, and mountain building.
- 3. • Mantle Convection - formed by rising hot magma near the core towards the surface, while cooler magma near the crust sinks, setting up a current that causes the plates to move.
- 4. Type of Plate Boundaries 1. Convergent (destructive) Boundaries - two plates are colliding. Subduction zones occur when one or both tectonic plates are composed of oceanic crust. The denser plate is subducted underneath the less dense plate. The plate being forced under is eventually melted and destroyed.
- 5. Type of Convergent Boundaries i. Where oceanic crust meets ocean crust (oceanic – oceanic) -Island arcs and oceanic trenches occur when both plates are made of oceanic crust. Zones of active seafloor spreading can also occur behind the island arc, known as back-arc basins. These are often associated with submarine volcanoes.
- 6. Type of Convergent Boundaries ii. Where oceanic crust meets continental crust (oceanic – continental) - The denser oceanic plate is subducted, often forming a mountain range on the continent. The Andes is an example of this type of collision.
- 7. Type of Convergent Boundaries iii. Where continental crust meets continental crust (continental– continental) -Both continental crusts are too light to subduct, so a continent-continent collision occurs, creating especially large mountain ranges. The most spectacular example of this is the Himalayas.
- 8. Type of Plate Boundaries 2. Divergent (Constructive) Boundaries- –two plates are moving apart. The space created can also fill with new crustal material sourced from molten magma that forms below. Divergent boundaries can form within continents but will eventually open and become ocean basins.
- 9. Type of Divergent Boundaries i. On land Divergent boundaries within continents initially produce rifts, which produce rift valleys. ii. Under the sea The most active divergent plate boundaries are between oceanic plates and are often called mid- oceanic ridges.
- 10. Type of Plate Boundaries 3. Transform boundaries – plates slide passed each other. The relative motion of the plates is horizontal. They can occur underwater or on land, and crust is neither destroyed nor created. Because of friction, the plates cannot simply glide past each other. Rather, stress builds up in both plates and when it exceeds the threshold of the rocks, the energy is released – causing earthquakes.
