Eurasian Plate

The Eurasian Plate is a large tectonic plate that covers much of Europe and Asia, extending from the Atlantic Ocean in the west to the boundaries of the Pacific Ocean in the east. It consists of both continental and oceanic crust and is one of the world's major plates. The movement of the Eurasian Plate affects geological activity in the region, including earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, particularly at its boundaries where it interacts with other plates. Understanding this plate helps scientists study Earth's geology and the processes that shape our planet.
