Week 2

When it comes to tectonic plate boundaries, Norway is located on the Eurasian Plate. It has a convergent plate boundary with the Indian plate. The plate is about 3 billion years old. Norway itself is closest to the North American Plate, which is a continental plate. Norway's location is pretty stable which means that the chance of earthquakes is low. The last major earthquake to cause damage happened in 1904.

  1. Thank you for the tectonic context. It'll be interesting to see next week how much seismicity (earthquakes) or not you have.
