Question: what is a active margin

An active continental margin is the submerged edge of a continent colliding with an oceanic lithosphere at a convergent plate boundary. A passive continental margin is the scar left at the edge of a continent after continental break-up.

An active margin is a tectonic plate boundary, while a passive margin is a compositional transition within a tectonic plate, both being features of the Earth's crust movement driven by mantle convection according to the plate tectonics theory.

A narrow or nonexistent continental shelf and a steep continental slope leading to a deep trench characterize an active continental margin, which is also marked by seismic and volcanic activity.

Passive continental margins are non-convergent areas with minimal volcanic and earthquake activity, while active margins are convergent zones where one plate goes under another, leading to volcanic and seismic activities.

The passage describes an active continental margin, which is located at the edge of a continent colliding with an oceanic plate. Notable examples include the west coast of South America. Active margins are characterized by tectonic activity such as earthquakes, volcanoes, mountain formation, and the creation of new igneous rocks.

Continental margins along India and Antarctica are classified as passive margins, featuring narrow or nonexistent continental shelves and steep continental slopes. In contrast to active margins, these margins do not have a continental rise but instead plunge into deep-ocean trenches, which may be filled with sediment.

A passive continental margin is characterized by a wide continental shelf, a gradual continental slope, and a distinct continental rise. It is marked by minimal volcanic and seismic activity, with sediment deposition being the main geological process.

Active margins are areas where oceanic lithosphere is being subducted under a continent, resulting in a narrow margin composed of highly deformed sediment scraped from the descending slab and attached to the overriding continent.

Two types of continental margins are identified: active and passive. Active margins develop at the boundaries of converging plates, while passive margins are located in the interior of plates.

A passive margin is the area where oceanic and continental lithosphere meet, not as an active plate boundary. It forms through sedimentation over old rift zones. Continental rifting leads to the creation of new ocean basins.

Approximately two-thirds of current convergent margins are active continental margins, where an oceanic plate goes under a continent. The total length of these margins is estimated to be around 45,000 km.

An active continental margin, which moves at a slow rate, causes long-term reshaping of the planet's surface. Found at the leading edge of continents colliding with oceanic plates, examples include the west coast of South America. Active margins are characterized by tectonic activity such as earthquakes, volcanoes, mountain building, and the formation of new igneous rock.

The passage describes a passive continental margin, which features a wide continental shelf, a gradual continental slope, and a distinct continental rise, with minimal seismic and volcanic activity. The text also mentions that continental margins are formed by large sections of Earth's lithosphere, separated by deep fault zones, referred to as plates.

Margin is the difference between a product's selling price and its cost of production, or the ratio of a company's revenues to expenses. It is also the equity contributed by an investor in a margin account as a percentage of securities' market value. Additionally, it represents the portion of an adjustable-rate mortgage's interest rate added to the adjustment-index rate.

Active continental margins form along converging plate boundaries where one plate is sinking beneath another, specifically in areas where oceanic plates are subducting beneath continental plates.

Question: what can contour plowing reduce

Contour plowing is a method that helps conserve soil by creating ridges that follow the natural contours of the land, acting as a water break to prevent erosion. In contrast, plowing in furrows that do not align with the land's contours can lead to rapid runoff and increased soil erosion during rainfall.

Contour plowing is a farming technique used in hilly and contoured areas where the plow follows the land's horizontal contours to reduce water runoff and prevent soil erosion. This practice involves creating water breaks to contain runoff and is called contour farming, which is a sustainable form of agriculture.
