[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Oceanic-Continental Convergence  When an oceanic plate pushes into and subducts under a continental plate, the overriding continental plate is lifted up and a mountain range is created. Even though the oceanic plate sinks continuously into the subduction trench, the deepest part of the subducting plate breaks into smaller pieces. These smaller pieces become locked in place for long periods of time before moving suddenly and generating large earthquakes.  Oceanic-Oceanic Convergence   When two oceanic plates converge one is usually subducted under the other and in the process a deep oceanic trench is formed.  Oceanic-oceanic plate convergence also results in the formation of undersea volcanoes. Over millions of years, however, the erupted lava and volcanic debris pile up on the ocean floor until a submarine volcano rises above sea level to form an island volcano. Such volcanoes are typically strung out in chains called island arcs.

Government seismology agency GNS Science reported that more than 280 aftershocks of magnitude 3.0 or greater have struck the region in five days. No one was killed and only two people were seriously injured _ which authorities attributed to good building codes and the quake's early morning timing. TRANSFORM BACK
