  1. A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. Plate size can vary greatly, from a few hundred to thousands of kilometres across; the Pacific and Antarctic Plates are among the largest.
  2. The epicenter, epicenter or epicentrum in seismology is the point on the Earth's surface directly above a hypo center or focus, the point where an earthquake or an underground explosion originates.
  3. Weathering is the breakdown of rocks at the Earth’s surface, by the action of rainwater, extremes of temperature, and biological activity. It does not involve the removal of rock material.  There are three types of weathering, physical, chemical and biological.
  4. Exogenic (or exogenetic) factors are agents supplying energy for actions that are located at or near the earth's surface. Exogenic factors are usually driven by gravity or atmospheric forces. The term is commonly applied to various processes such as weathering, denudation, mass wasting, etc.
  5. A sand dune is a mount, hill or ridge of sand that lies behind the part of the beach affected by  tides. They are formed over many years when windblown sand is trapped by beach grass or other  stationary objects. Dune grasses anchor the dunes with their roots, holding them temporarily in  place, while their leaves trap sand promoting dune expansion. Without vegetation, wind and  waves regularly change the form and location of dunes. Dunes are not permanent structures.
