Learning goals
  • You know which natural hazards Europe is faced with.
  • You can explain how and where an earthquake occurs.
  • You know in which European countries the chance on an earthquake is the biggest.
  • You can explain the connection between plate tectonics and the presence of natural resources in Europe.

Slide 7 - Slide

Endogenous forces
Plate tectonics: how do plate tectonics start?

  • Convection currents
  • Rock melts due to the temperature of the core and molten rock starts to flow
  • These convection currents cause earth plates to move

Slide 8 - Slide

Slide 9 - Slide

Three types of plate tectonics
  1. Convergent 
  2. Divergent
  3. Transform

Slide 10 - Slide

Consequences of plate tectonics
  • Volcanoes
  • Earthquakes
  • Mountain formation

Earthquakes in the Mediterranean
How does an earthquake occur?
  • Friction between two plates
  • When the pressure becomes too big an earthquakes happens
At what plate boundary does an earthquake occur?

Earthquakes
  • Epicenter 
  • Hypocenter

Slide 18 - Slide

Consequences
  • Damage caused by earthquake differs from place to place
  • Poor countries suffer the worst consequences
