Oceanic-Continental Convergence
-When an Oceanic plate collids into a continental plate the Oceanic plate sinks underneath the continental plate.
-When an Oceanic plate sinks underneath a Continental plate it is called subduction zone.
-Subduction zones along an Oceanic Continental boundary create large or small trenches on the sea bed.
-High tempuratures cause rocks to melt around the Pacific Ocean because of subduction. The magma is pushed upward through the upper plate forming volcanoes.
