The movement of the plates creates three types of tectonic boundaries: convergent ... slowly giving rise to the Himalaya, the highest mountain system on Earth. As the mash-up continues, the ...

Abstract: In Northeast India, three major plates interact along two convergent boundaries: the Himalayas and the Indo–Burma Ranges, which meet at the Assam Syntaxis. To clarify this tectonic ...

The boundary where the two plates meet is called a convergent boundary. Deep trenches appear at these boundaries, caused by the oceanic plate bending downward into the Earth. Deep below the Earth ...

Also known as subduction boundary, a convergent boundary occurs where one plate slides under another as the two are pushed together. If there is land at the edge of one of these plates ...
