1. Earthquakes Around the World By: Spencer Miller

2. The distribution of earthquakes coincides with the boundaries between tectonic plates. What did I notice about the Distribution?

3. The earthquakes tended to happen where the tectonic plates collide not slide apart for example the Pacific Ocean plate. What did notice about the earthquake pattern?

4. The Earthquakes happen where the plates converge together. Where do the earthquake happen?

5. 47% of big earthquakes occur within 100 miles of a convergent plate boundary. What percentage of big earthquakes occur within 100 miles of a convergent plate boundary?

6. 71% of big earthquakes occur within 200 miles of a convergent plate boundary. What percentage of big earthquakes occur within 200 miles of a convergent plate boundary?

7. Japan San Francisco Chile Mexico Italy East China South Alaska Caribbean Islands Haiti Mongolia Top ten list where earthquakes will occur sometime in the future.

8. Question: What have you learned about earthquakes and earthquake prediction? Answer: That most of the earthquakes occur on plates and convergent plates. Question: What factors influence earthquake prediction? Answer: A factor is where the two lines meet between the significant and big earthquakes and past year earthquakes. Question: Where on Earth do most of the really big earthquakes strike? Answer: Really big earthquakes occur on convergent plates on earth. My Report
