Activity Sheet 4

Two oceanic plates are converging, with one sliding underneath the other. As the plates collide, the subducting plate will be forced deeper into the mantle through the geologic processes of subduction and mountain building. Compressional forces will cause the overriding plate to fold and uplift, forming a volcanic mountain range at the surface. As the subducting plate abruptly rises, it could displace a large volume of ocean water and form a tsunami.
