Period 2: Evidence of Plate Tectonics by Mr. Kosak https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y Please use google earth or another satellite website to capture evidence of plate tectonics. You must include a description of what type of boundary this is based on what we see in the image.

The Caribbean plate is getting pulled under the North America plate. I see a deep ocean trench there. ]]> 2018-03-22 15:09:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245045235 Aurora Negron https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245047010 The Nazca plate has both convergent and divergent plates, it has three seamount chains within it . It has produced the largest earthquake ever recorded in 1976. We see a deep indent right along the coast of South America

The Aleutian trench is in the ocean it runs along the southern Alaska coastline and the Aleutian Islands. The trench is 3,400 km long or 2112.662 miles long. This is the boundary between two tectonic plates. The plates are divergent so are pulling apart and the water from the ocean is filling the space. On google earth you can see a significant line that represents the trench.

I know this is a divergent because part of the ground is rising and the other part is sinking into the earth.

This is a convergent boundary plate because I can see that there is earth deformity in the ground. It looks like a vain in the earth. It looks like something got pushed down and another thing got pushed up and that is what a convergent boundary is. Also it is defined as a convergent boundary.]]> 2018-03-22 15:47:13 UTC https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245071814 Brianna Stark https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245483823 This is a divergent boundary plate. You can tell it's a divergent boundary because the plates aren't moving against each other or shifting over each other. You don't see any evidence of it being convergent or transform so you can know that it is a divergent boundary as it moves apart.]]> 2018-03-23 14:28:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245483823 Logan Holsing https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245484712 This is a convergent boundary near Japan.

This ridge is evidence of Plate tectonics because it is showing the borders of different plates, example: Juan de Fuca Ridge as seen in the picture. Ridges are plates separating that are produced by lava going in between the plates.  This causes the plates to pull apart and separate from each other.

I found a diverant bundary between the Pacific plate and the Nazca plate. It is a diverant boundary because the two plates are moving apart from each other. Because of this I see a deep creaves froming.

This is a divergent boundary I can see that because in the middle of the ocean I can see how South America and Africa separated. They got pushed apart and you can see where they were before and that’s how I know that this is a divergent boundary.

The denser oceanic crust gets pushed under the more buoyant continental crust. It's obvious that this is a plate boundary because of the large trench that is continuing to grow.

This is a transform boundary. It is a transform boundary because the plates rub against each other and is responsible for California's many earthquakes.  ]]> 2018-03-23 14:40:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245491405 Sam W https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245491702  
The Mariana Trench is a convergent boundary. It’s a convergent boundary because one plate is being pulled down under the other one. It is the deepest part of the world’s oceans. It is located in the western Pacific Ocean.

This type of convergent boundary is an oceanic to continental meaning the ocean part is what is siding underneath the continent or the plate. It makes it easier to see that ocean is going under the plate.  ]]> 2018-03-23 14:40:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245491727 alexa https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245493287 this is a convergent boundary that sub ducts underneath another plate. the islands are situated in a subduction zone. the crusts get under the continental crust]]> 2018-03-23 14:42:49 UTC https://padlet.com/kkosak1/b52xtammoj4y/wish/245493287
