- Crust tends to buckle & be pushed upward or sideways.

- This type of plate boundary can be found on land and commonly in mountain ranges.
=== - An excellent example would be the Himalayan Mountain Range, which is located along the northern sides of Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Burma. [ If you were to look at satellite images of the Himalayas you would be able to see the Indian and Eurasian plates currently in collision. ] ===

 - An ancient example would be the Appalachians, they can be found along the eastern states of the US.

===** - ** Some Geologic features associated with this boundary include mountains and mountain ranges of great height. [ The mountain ranges are made when the two continental plates converge, buckle, and compress. An example of when this happen is when the Indian-Australian plates collided with the Eurasian plate. ] === === - Another Geological feature that can occur is a new sea. This happens when continental rifting continually happens between two continents. (a new sea occurs at DIVERGENT boundaries and not at convergent!)===

- Volcanoes occur when the plates pull apart. (this is a divergent feature! mrseng)
=== - When a sea is being formed the forces of divergence tear a continent apart. When the two or more blocks of continental crust begin moving apart and magma pushes into the rift that was formed between them. If continental rift continuously occurs between the two continents a new sea could be formed.===

- The red sea was formed when the Arabian and African plates had rifting occur between them.

- Destruction of oceanic lithosphere.
