What happens when plates collide? It depends how the plates are moving when they meet: • Whentwo plates collide head-on, they push each other up and form mountains. That's how the Himalayas and other great mountain ranges (including the Rockies, long ago) were created. ...
Deep-sea trenches are areas where the Earth's tectonic plates collide. Observations of such areas would provide important information regarding ancient and modern Earth processes. Scientific ocean drilling has provided scientists with a method to observe what happens when tectonic plates collide. It is...

At a convergent boundary two plates move towards each other. As the plates slowly collide, one or both of them buckle upwards to create ripples in the surface of the Earth’s crust. This is the process by which mountain ranges are formed. Occasionally one plate forces the other down to f...
A new study says we may only have another 1.45 billion years to enjoy the dynamic action of Earth’s geologic engine.
E、First of all, most volcanoes are formed where two plates collide. F、Then one of the plates is forced under the other and sinks. G、When the heat, steam, and pressure from the magma finally reach the of the Earth, volcanic eruption occurs. ...
