Convection currents inside the Earth happens. The part where the convection currents go up, it brings up materials from the mantle like rocks. This forms new crust. When the convection currents go down, it brings down some older, colder oceanic crust to the mantle, destroying it. In conclusion, the crust is formed and destroyed when convection currents inside the Earth happen.
A lot, but the basic answer is movement of the earths crust. It directly causes the Continental drift, seafloor spreading, earthquakes and volcanoes. It indirectly causes a host of other geographical features.
Convection Currents affect earth by slowly moving the tectonic plates
Convection currents inside of the earth can effect the crust by causing the following mountains to form, earthquakes, and sometimes volcanoes.
Some of the substances that give rise to eutrophication in a system naturally settle to the bottom. However, convection currents can bring them closer to the surface again.
Plate interactions and Earthquakes. Also Convection Currents!! How earthquakes occur is when volcanoes erupt a earthquake happens some where in the world. when a Convection Currents happen inside the in the mantle!! Plate interactions create a folded mountain!!
The only one I can think of off the top of my head, is a kettle boiling water :) Hope this helps! : ) : )
Strong winds result from convection currents in the air, which result from sunlight, which for various reasons will heat some air more than other air.
Convection currents are vertical movements of fluids driven by heat. Hot fluids rise because they are less dense than cold fluids which sink. The best example would be soup boiling - stuff in the soup comes to the surface over the flame and sinks back towards the edges of the pot. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current caused by the expansion of a liquid, solid, or gas as its temperature rises. The expanded material, being less dense, rises, while colder, denser material sinks. Material of neutral buoyancy moves laterally. Convection currents arise in the atmosphere above warm land masses or seas, giving rise to sea breezes and land breezes, respectively. In some heating systems, convection currents are used to carry hot water upwards in pipes. Convection currents in the hot, solid rock of the Earth's mantle help to drive the movement of the rigid plates making up the Earth's surface.

Some is fossil heat, some from radioactivity.

If the mantle of the earth interior were to cool down the convection currents and plate tectonics would stop. That would mean that there would be no more earthquakes or volcanoes.
Convection currents occur in the asthenosphere.
It can is some cases. Some of the substances that give rise to eutrophication in a system naturally settle to the bottom. However, convection currents can bring them closer to the surface again.

Sunlight warms the waters on the ocean surface. Some heat energy is transferred to cooler waters through convection.
Convection currents in the mantle are what causes tectonic plates to move. Uneven heating of the mantle results from radioactive decay of some long-lived isotopes in the mantle, which are not evenly distributed.

Convection currents can occur in either a gas or liquid medium but not in a solid medium (so you can have them in air, and you can have them in magma, but you can't have them in solid rock) and they only occur when there is a temperature difference, so that hotter, less dense material will rise, and colder, denser material will sink.
