- The actual location in the earth where movement in crust originates
- Steep, wrinkled slopes. Made of alternating layers of lava and ash. Viscous (thick) magma. Violent, explosive and unpredictable. Also known as a stratovolcano. What type of volcano am I?
- The lithosphere is made up of the crust (oceanic and continental) + upper _____.
- Heat energy from the earth
- This category of waves includes Love and Rayleigh
Down
- Magma melts the tectonic plate above, then builds and rises to surface, creating a volcanic island (two word, no space)
- The type of plate boundary where plates spread apart
- This kind of destruction often provides opportunities for people who live in disaster prone areas.
- The type of plate boundary where plates slide against each other in opposite directions.
- The point on the surface directly above the earthquake's focus
- The path along the Pacific Ocean, that follows plate boundaries, characterized by active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes (three words, no spaces)
- A scale to measure earthquakes that uses a numerical value, based on data collected from the seismograph
- A visual scale to measure earthquakes, based on the destruction that occurs
- How are volcanic eruptions measured? (short form)
- Developed the theory of continental drift
- Used to detect and record seismic waves
- The type of plate boundary where plates crash into each other
- Where plates meet
- The number of reasons Wegener had to support his theory of continental drift
- The crust (oceanic and continental) + upper mantle. What sphere am I?
- Created by a release of energy stored in the plates beneath the surface, resulting in trembling or shaking of Earth’s crust
- The crust is constantly moving because of this
