but now it is being turned into a new plate boundary. The depressions are indicative of a strike-slip fault, which is the same kind of fault as the San Andreas Fault in California.(Image credit: Aurélie
On the other hand, ornithopods would leave bipedal trackways but when they evolve to larger forms (iguanodontians) manus prints are found more frequently (e.g. Castanera et al., 2013a, 2013b; García- Cobeña et al., 2023). 4 Palaeoecology Tracks and trackways, mainly their...
When two plates come together, The impact of the two colliding plates buckles the edge of one or both plates up into a rugged mountain range, and sometimes bends the other down into a deep seafloor trench. A chain of volcanoes often forms parallel to the boundary, to the mountain range, ...

Located on the east side of the East Africa Rift Valley, Mount Kilimanjaro is the tallest mountain in Africa and is formed of the remains of a dormant volcano. The precipitation that falls on Mount Kilimanjaro has a significant impact on a large portion of the African continent....
