The 21 pages that link to Nazca Plate, each with the reason it gives.

• AndesRelated: Its subduction drives much of Andean uplift and volcanism.

• Galápagos IslandsRelated: Its motion carries older islands away from the hotspot and shapes the island chain’s age pattern.

• 1960 Valdivia earthquakeRelated: Its motion beneath South America drove the earthquake’s rupture.

• East Pacific RiseRelated: It diverges from the Pacific Plate along the southern part of the rise.

• South American PlateCompared with: Unlike the mostly continental South American Plate, it descends beneath it at a convergent boundary.

• Farallon PlateBroader topic: It is another major remnant commonly traced to the Farallon Plate.

• Cocos PlateCompared with: It borders the Cocos Plate near the Galápagos Triple Junction but subducts beneath a different continent.
