NOTES FAULTS and FOLDS.

STRESS, FAULTS, AND FOLDS. Deformation is the bending, tilting, and breaking of the Earth’s crust. Plate tectonics is the major cause of crustal deformation.

PLATE TECTONICS. Lithospheric plates Lithosphere is made up of 12 large plates and about 20 smaller ones Plates are solid and float on the asthenosphere.

NORMAL Fault formed by the stress of TENSION where plates were pulled apart. The Hanging Wall fell and the Footwall was raised.

Types of Faults and Plate Tectonics July 8, 2016

Convergent Boundary Occurs when two plates push together Fault that forms here are called reverse or thrust faults Boundary Animation Himalayas contain this type of fault KNOW THIS IMAGE!

Divergent Boundary Occurs when two tectonic plates are pulled apart Fault that occurs here are called normal faults Sierra Nevada Mountains contain this type of fault KNOW THIS IMAGE!

Transform Boundary Occurs when two tectonic plates slide past each other Fault that occurs at this boundary is called a strike-slip fault San Andreas Fault is an example of this type of fault KNOW THIS IMAGE!

Folding Rocks are bent or curved, but do not break
