Week 2 - Tectonic Plates
Croatia Croatia is near where the Eurasian and African plates meet. According to our textbook, this is a Convergent boundary. A Convergent boundary is where plates move toward each other. After looking into whether or not each plate was Oceanic or Continental, I found that both plates have both elements. Where the plates meet it seems like an Oceanic-Oceanic boundary. This is when a convergent boundary forms between plates of Oceanic lithosphere. There are also some volcanic islands off the coast of Croatia, which could be a result of these colliding plates. Brusnik and Jabuka are both uninhabited volcanic islands off the coast of Croatia.
