Earthquakes
Have a look at the world map of recorded earthquakes during last 115 years.
We will see later how earthquakes are related to our topic, but there are few important conclusions this map can teach us.
1. Earthquakes are strongly related to plate tectonics. (occur on plate boundaries)
2. Tectonic plates emerge with mild earthquakes.
3. Stronger earthquakes occurs where tectonic plates collide.
4. Plate's subduction zones get most and strongest earthquakes.
5. Mountaineous areas get more earthquakes than plane areas.
