In theory, the Samoa hotspot is a result of the Pacific Tectonic Plate moving over a ' fixed ' deep and narrow mantle plume spewing up through the Earth's crust.

The Laramie Project is a play by Moisés Kaufman and members of the Tectonic Theater Project ( specifically, Leigh Fondakowski, Stephen Belber, Greg Pierotti, Barbara Pitts, Stephen Wangh, Amanda Gronich, Sara Lambert, John McAdams, Maude Mitchell, Andy Paris, and Kelli Simpkins ) about the reaction to the 1998 murder of University of Wyoming gay student Matthew Shepard in Laramie, Wyoming.

The area south of the “ Central Tectonic Line ” is called Nankii ( 南紀 ), and includes the most poleward living coral reefs in the world due to the presence of the warm Kuroshio Current, though these are threatened by global warming and human interference.

The Sudbury Basin is located near a number of other geological structures, including the Temagami Magnetic Anomaly, the Lake Wanapitei impact crater, the western end of the Ottawa-Bonnechere Graben, and the eastern end of the Great Lakes Tectonic Zone although none of the structures are directly related to each other in the sense of resulting from the same geophysical processes.

In theory, the Samoa hotspot is a result of the Pacific Tectonic Plate moving over a ' fixed ' deep and narrow mantle plume spewing up through the Earth's crust.

The Pacaya volcano is a part of the Central American Volcanic Arc, a chain of volcanoes stretching from the northwest to the southeast along the Pacific coast of Central America, formed by the tectonic subduction of the Cocos Tectonic Plate beneath the Caribbean Plate.

Tectonic uplift of the peninsula is estimated to be in the order of 100 metres during the Quaternary and 2 metres during the last 1000 years.

# Tectonic rifting has uplifted et-Tell ( the site is located on the Great African-Syrian Rift fault )

* Tectonic Setting: Biliran Volcano is part of the curvilinear belt of Quaternary volcanoes in eastern Philippines, parallel to Phil.

Tectonic uplift is a geological process most often caused by plate tectonics which increases elevation.

An example for the subduction zone setting is the Japan Median Tectonic Line.

* Tectonic earth movements, where the slope of the land changes, and the stream is tipped out of its former course.

Persinger has also come to public attention due to his 1975 Tectonic Strain Theory ( TST ) of how geophysical variables may correlate with sightings of unidentified flying objects ( UFOs ) or Marian apparitions.

Tectonic uplifts have produced large mountains, including the highest in Mount Kinabalu in Sabah with a height of 4, 095. 2 m and Puncak Jaya on New Guinea at.

Tectonic highlands supplied the Eocene sedimentary basins with sediment from all directions: the Uinta Mountains in the center ; the Wind River Mountains to the north ; the Front Range, Park Range and Sawatch Range of the Colorado Rockies to the east ; the Uncompahgre Plateau and the San Juan Mountains to the south and finally, the Wasatch Mountains of Utah and the ranges of eastern Idaho to the west.

The play was developed with Moisés Kaufman and his Tectonic Theater Project, and Kaufman also acted as director.

Their report Evaluasi Kegiatan G. Rinjani of 4 May also stated that on 1 May 2010 at 10: 00 four events of Explosive Earthquake were recorded with a maximum amplitude of 6 – 53 mm and 110 seconds long earthquake, earthquake tremor events with a maximum amplitude of 1 mm and 55 second long duration, 15 Local Tectonic earthquake events and two events of tectonic earthquake.

* Tectonic / reconstructive: To preserve corneal anatomy and integrity in patients with stromal thinning and descemetoceles, or to reconstruct the anatomy of the eye, e. g. after corneal perforation.

* Tectonic strain theory, a theory that correlates the appearance of EM radiation from geophysical phenomena with apparent claims of UFO sightings

Tectonic activities are active on eastern Laurasia as the Cimmerian plate continues to collide with Laurasia's southern coast, completely closing the Paleo-Tethys Ocean.

Tectonic forces were not strong enough to continue to separate the two sides of the continental rift ; when the rifting stopped, the lava cooled and the heavy crust sank and was filled with sediment.

Tectonic windows and domes as the Hohe Tauern window were formed in this way.

He then released the aforementioned single " Closer " on Tectonic, which featured a remix by label boss Pinch.

Tectonic breccias form where two tectonic plates create a crumbling of the interface, by their relative movements.
