July 21 2021 M6.7 #earthquake offshore #Panama occurred at the #triplejunction between the #PanamaPlate, #CocosPlate, & #NazcaPlate. Cocos & Nazca are a spreading system; this produces strike-slip between the 2 plates here because of the long N-S #transformfault. 1/4 #tectoplot

(Clive's other clue) With the slab of faults (a.k.a. the #subductionzone) removed (and #Benioff back in the picture), focus falls on the #transformfault - without which "convection" and #platetectonics would be much improved. #volcanoes #geology #oceanfloors #tectonics #blueseas

#TransformFault: The plates "slide" past each other & moves the earth horizontally more than vertically. It's like putting your index fingers together together & the knuckles "catch" and "release". This is what "basically" happens here. #earthquake #tsunami #Caribbean

It happening along the #TransformFault part of the plates is a relative "good" thing. This means there was more lateral movement as opposed to it happening along a thrust fault, which would have pushed water UP more than along a transform fault. Still, better to be prepared.
