A major boundary is defined by the historic presence of earthquakes, as all boundaries appear to have them in some capacity. Each category may be modified by how frequent earthquakes are on that boundary (possibly by adding a number…[Read more]

b. The volcanoes occur in clusters, the most clustered ones are the ones around the Pacific plate, Australian plate, a few at the African plate, and a small few in one spot at one portion of the Eurasian plate. The volcanoes at the Pacific plate go around the top and sides of the plate but none…[Read more]

b) V1- Volcanos are mostly occur near pacific plate, African plate and Australian plate.

V2- No linear pattern and They are scattered pattern, and some are clustered pattern.

V3- In some of the places many volcanos occur in small area and in some area, they are spread out.

V4- The boundary of…[Read more]

a. Volcanoes are not present in all boundaries.

b. The volcanoes occur in somewhat of a linear pattern. However, there are also some clusters of volcanoes. Volcanoes also tend to occur at the edge of the boundary instead of in the middle. They also occur usually only on 1 side of the boundary. They tend to also go towards land rather than a…[Read more]

Volcanoes can occur at plate boundaries (like the trail between the North American and Pacific Plate), however, they can also occur within plates (such as those within the Pacific Plate). They also can occur in a combination of clustered (boundary of North American and…[Read more]

1. a. Volcanoes are not present at all boundaries. b. The majority of volcanoes at contintental plate boundaries trend towards following the edge of the landmass, and most of the volcanoes move further inland rather than outwards to the ocean, as is seen at…[Read more]

Take some time to compare your boundary classifications with those provided by others in your group and begin thinking about how you could condense these into a single classification system in which each boundary is associated with a specific pattern of earthquakes, volcanoes, to…[Read more]

Now that you have made and recorded your observations, write a brief summary to share your boundary classifications with your group. Your post should include 4 sets of classifications, one for each map, i.e., the V, E, T, and S boundaries. If you had lingering questions or ob…[Read more]

I think your question is very interesting because I also was wondering the same thing. I remember last year we barely got any snow and I was wondering what changed this year. I never did any research on polar vortexes, however I believe that your conclusion is very valid and is a good explanation for the increase of snow this year.

I think your question and research topic is very interesting, I have also noticed a lot of new potholes in my neighborhood recently. I think your conclusion is valid because I also realized that there are cracks in the street near me and the water after it rains and snows tends to get in those cracks and when water freezes it expands…[Read more]

My question: Why there is so significant change in population and…[Read more]

My question is: why have so many of these potholes appeared in my neighborhood within the same time frame?

1. There…

I, too, like to ride bikes, I could ride it all day if I could. I think it would be pretty interesting to learn more about sustainable energies and pollution.

My name is Shaham. I am also majoring in Mechanical Engineering. It is always fun to learn about Earth Science to make the earth a better place to live in.

My name is Shaham. I also love learning about renewable energy and solar energy is one of the greatest source of renewable energy.
