the Natural Landscape starts off as two Plates American Plate and a Pacific PLate. The Amazon Basin processes is when these two plates start to more or push by the Convection currents of the magma in the earth. In a more easyer format The two plates move towards easy other and collide one plate will move on the plate which forms a mountain. The mountain Andes was formed as the diving gondwana contintents which is western region spilt tha was caused by the south Amercian plate which collide with the Pacific Plate that made a Volcanic eruption and mountains are formed/build.
My chosen NZ natural landscape is Mt Egmont which has been formed by erosion due to tectonic processes beneath the earth’s crust. It was formed by the two plates which lay beneath New Zealand the Indo Australasian Plate and the Pacific Plate. In which the pacific plate was too weak and sub-ducted beneath the Indo Australasian plate and was then exposed to hot magma. In effect the plate then started to melt and break up and chunks of the plate started burst through weaknesses in the beneath the earth’s crust causing volcanic eruptions which formed up volcanoes and the natural landscape.

New Zealand The process that has responsibility for the evolution and the changes within the New Zealand landscape is the movement of the tectonic plates. This is where two plates meet at the subduction zone. This also means that one tectonic plate will be force to be subducted beneath the other tectonic plate. In the New Zealand landscape the two tectonic plates involved is the Indo- Australasian plate and the Pacific plate. Both plates collided forcing the Pacific plate to subduct which lead to it becoming exposed to hot magma beneath the earth surface. However, the Pacific plate was melted and broken up allowing broken chunk to pop up to the earth surface finding weak spots in the crust of the mountain which then causes a huge volcanic eruption. The process lead to the land form of the Volcanic Plateau and Mt Egmont in the centre of the North Island.
