Natural Hazards
Across
- 4. Instruments used to detect earthquakes.
- 6. A volcanic belt that runs all the way around the edge of the Pacific ocean.
- 8. Type of margin where two plates move sideways past each other and sometimes cause earthquakes.
- 10. More economically developed country.
- 11. Huge slabs under the earth
- 13. A long, high sea wave caused by an earthquake or other disturbance.
Down
- 1. Type of margin where a oceanic crust moves under a continental crust but it sinks as it is heavier.
- 2. Type of margin when two plates move away from each other and magma immediately rises to fill the gap.
- 3. Point on ground above the focus.
- 5. Where plates touch/meet
- 7. The point where the earthquake occurs.
- 8. Type of margin where two continental plates collide and since neither can sink, they rise to form mountains.
- 9. Less economically developed country.
- 12. The outside part of the earth.
- 14. The region of the earth's interior between the crust and the core.
