Across
- 2. A series of ocean waves with extremely long wavelengths, usually triggered by undersea earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
- 3. The coastal flooding caused due to winds in storm systems like hurricanes.
- 6. The slow, continuous movement of soil or rock downhill over time due to the force of gravity.
- 8. Sudden shaking or trembling of the ground caused by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface.
- 10. A depression or hole in the ground caused by the collapse of a surface layer into an underlying cavity.
Down
- 1. The process where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another in a convergent boundary, often causing powerful earthquakes or volcanoes.
- 4. Energy waves generated by the sudden release of stress within the Earth, causing vibrations.
- 5. The point on the Earth's surface directly above the earthquake's point of origin or focus.
- 7. A type of landslide involving a rapid movement of a mixture of soil, rock, and water down a slope.
- 9. An overflow of water onto normally dry land, often caused by heavy rainfall, storm surges, or the melting of snow and ice.
