Convergent plate boundaries - subduction, collision and Island arcs - what are their features?

In this episode, I talk about the geological and topographic features of three types of convergent plate boundaries - subduction, collision, and island arcs.  We cover earthquakes, volcanoes, deep ocean trenches, mountain building, and more.  This is a great summary for students learning about Plate Tectonics.If you want a summary of the theory - you can find a podcast episode that covers the theory here.If you want a booklet covering the theory and evidence, check out this one - its great idea as a class set.And finally, if you are looking for activities for students on Plate tectonics, then see what we have in our Member Resources page.Interested in joining us on a trip?   Check out our field adventures here.Support the show
