Week 2 Plate Tectonics


Morocco is located in the northwestern corner of Africa. Its geographical composition includes the Atlas Mountains, the Western Sahara and miles of coastline on the Atlantic and Mediterranean oceans. Morocco is located on the African plate and its closest plate boundary is a convergent boundary that runs through the straits of Gibraltar.  (Pg. 24) One of the major hazards that could occur are earthquakes. (Pg. 27)
