Strike slip faults are steep structures where the two sides of the fault slip horizontally past eachother, transform boundaries are a particular type of strike slip fault. This can cause many earthquakes. If a road is on a strike slip fault it can move the road so it is no longer attached to the other side.This is a place to share your learnings in Geography 12 with other students. You will be required to make at least one post each week. You will be evaluated on your posts so demonstrate geographic vocabulary, knowledge, and thinking. Take it seriously but have fun with it too!
