Mostly in the oceanic plate,or location which can cause the oceanic plate to crack,as the formation of a tsunami is caused by the displacement of a rock undersea,leading to violent waves that hit the shore as tsunami.
hope it helps!
Answer:
How do people survive in Antarctica in the winter? Mainly by staying on the station. By not leaving at all during the permanent night, by not travelling for too far and by staying put in a tent or hut if caught out in a blizzard rather than trying to go back to the station.
Explanation:
It's because there are bigger faults in Caliifornia.Which is San andres which is 800 miles which cuts through California.We all know earth is contesntly changing, and earthquakes are apart of earth chaging.So every times the tictonic plates moves it causes California, and other states close by to aswell, but not as bad.
Answer:
Explanation:
1. glacial tills and cirques Till is derived from the erosion and entrainment of material by the moving ice of a glacier. It is deposited some distance down-ice to form terminal, lateral, medial, and ground moraine. Cirques form by the accumulation of snow and ice avalanching from upslope areas. The size of cirque glaciers ranges from glaciers that are completely limited within hosting bedrock hollows, to glaciers that form the heads of large valley glaciers.
2. ENERGY FROM THE SUN heats up the air at the equator most because of the curvature of the earth. This tends to rise up then head toward the poles where it cools and moves closer to the surface and then more or less back toward the equator.
THE ROTATION OF THE EARTH makes the movement of air relative to the surface of the earth seem to deflect. This Coriolis effect doesn't affect your toilet flushing, but does influence large scale wind patterns and hurricanes.
THE LATITUDE OF VANCOUVER roughly half way between the equator and the north pole positions us so the large scale wind patterns tend to bring us winds from the west.
THE PACIFIC OCEAN sits to the west. Winds pick up moisture from it toward shore. Large bodies of water also tend to hang on to energy that keeps our temperatures more moderate.
THE COAST MOUNTAINS push the moist air upward so it cools off and can't hold on to as much moisture, so it rains.
THE TILT OF THE EARTH'S AXIS relative to the plane of our orbit around the sun means we are tilted away from the sun during winter, so it's cooler. This results in a greater temperature gradient between the equator and the north pole, and the winds get stronger. The cooler temperatures combined with more moisture-ladened wind brings more rain during winter.
