Tectonics Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

A-Level Geography – Tectonics Exam Review 2023 (EQ1) What is the global distribution of earthquakes? - Answer-Most earthquakes = near tectonic plate boundaries - clusters of foreshocks, main quakes + aftershocks. ~70% earthquakes = 'Ring of Fire', Pacific Ocean. Most earthquakes --> destructive + conservative plates. (EQ1) What is the global distribution of volcanoes? - Answer-Most volcanoes = near a tectonic plate boundary. North + South America --> active volcano zones. So...

This got me an A* for A level Edexcel Geography. It's my revision notes for Topic 1 Tectonics which, like the rest of my geography notes, are filled with case studies, facts, diagrams, and explanations. I only used this for my revision for all my mocks and actual exam and got A*s in all. It's also got some extra information that can boost your grade even higher! I've arranged it so that all the information is organised under each specification point, so it's really useful for exam preparation!
