Crust Plate Plate margin (boundary) Mantle

The outer layer of the earth A section of the earths crust Where two plates meet The dense , mostly solid layer between the outer core and the crust The circular currents of heat in the mantle Crust that is found underneath the ocean Crust that is found underneath land (continents) Where two plates slide past each other Where oceanic crust meets continental crust and is forced back into the mantle Where two plates of the same type meet and form fold mountains Where two plates move away from each other and new land is created The sinking of oceanic crust at the margin Mountains that have been made from the crumpling of rock layers as they have been forced together.

Ocean trench

Deep sections of ocean found at destructive plate margins. A steep sided volcano that is made up of mostly lava and ash A broad flatter volcano that is made mostly of lava A very large volcano e.g. Yellowstone. They erupt at least 1000km 3 of material An occurrence that people have little control over and poses a threat to lives and property The immediate effects of a natural disaster The after effects of a natural disaster A sudden and often violent shift in the crust that is felt at the surface. How people react as the disaster happens and immediately after. Later reactions that occur in the weeks, months and years after the event The secondary effects of a volcanic eruption are mudflows that are a mix of ash and water. A scale that measures the strength of an earthquake using seismographs.

Mercalli Scale

A measure or an earthquakes strength using observations of the damage done. Plumes of magma weaken the crust. These are found away from plate The depression of a supervolcano. It marks the collapse of the magma chamber Extended openings that allow magma to escape. Water that is heated beneath the surface. It reaches the surface in a variety of ways. The point in the earths crust where an earthquake starts The point at the earths surface directly above the focus of an earthquake. Shock waves generated by an earthquake that pass through the earths crust A very large wave created by an earthquake which displaces the water above it.
