The movement of these plates can cause earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain building, and ocean trench formation. Here is an overview of each major plate shown in the map: 1. Pacific Plate Location: The largest tectonic plate, located beneath the Pacific Ocean. Characteristics: Contains both ...

FARALLON PLATE:The Farallon Plate was an ancient oceanic plate that sunk down subducting below California. In Oregon and Washington, there’s still a small piece of it that exists which is now called the Juan de Fuca plate. During thetime of Pangaea, the Farallon plate was largely responsible...
ones as "microplates," although that term has loose definitions. The Juan de Fuca plate, for example, is very small (ranked 22nd in size) and could be considered a microplate. Its role in the discovery of seafloor spreading, however, leads to its inclusion on almost every tectonic map. ...
