Geology of the Alps The Adriatic or ApulianPlate is a small tectonic plate carrying primarily continental crust that broke away from the African plate along a large transform fault in the Cretaceous period. The name Adriatic Plate is usually used when referring to the northern part of the plate. This part of the plate was Deformation engineering deformed during the Alpine orogeny , when the Adriatic ApulianPlate continental collision collided with the Eurasian plate . The Adriatic ApulianPlate is thought to still move independently of the Eurasian Plate in NNE direction with a small component of counter clockwise rotation ref cite journal last R. Devotia, C. Ferraroa, E. Gueguenb, R. Lanottea, V. Luceria, A. Nardia, R. Pacionea, P. Rutiglianoa, C. Sciarrettaa, F.

The Geologic fault fault zone that separates the two is the Periadriatic Seam that runs through the Alps. Studies indicate that in addition to deforming, the Eurasian continental crust has actually subducted to some extent below the Adriatic ApulianPlate, an unusual circumstance in plate tectonics. Oceanic crust of the African Plate is also subducting under the Adriatic ApulianPlate off the western and southern coasts of the Italian Peninsula, creating a berm of assorted debris which rises from the seafloor and continues onshore. This subduction is also responsible for the volcanics of southern Italy. The eastern Italian Peninsula and the Adriatic Sea are on the Adriatic ApulianPlate. Mesozoic sedimentary rock s deposited on the plate include the limestone s that form the Southern Calcareous Alps .

The Tonga Plate is a small southwest Pacific tectonic plate or microplate. It is centered at approximately 19 S. latitude and 173 E. longitude. The plate is an elongated plate oriented NNE SSW and is a northward continuation of the Kermadec linear zone north of New Zealand. The plate is bounded on the east and north by the Pacific Plate , on the northwest by the Niuafo ou Plate Niuaf ou Microplate , on the west and south by the Indo Australian Plate . The Tonga plate is subducting the Pacific plate along the Tonga Trench . This subduction turns into a transform fault boundary north of Tonga. An active rift or spreading center separates the Tonga from the Australian plate and the Niuafo ou microplate to the west. The Tonga plate is seismically very active and is rotating clockwise. These were the plates that moved when the 2009 Samoa earthquake 2009 tsunami hit Samoa. References Bird, P., An updated digital model of plate boundaries, Geochem. Geophys.
