Earthquakes and volcanoes are (~90%) directly related to plate tectonics. The others are caused by things like hot spots or other related phenomenon. Astronomical, tidal, weather, or other types of changes have no effect (i.e. there is no 'earthquake weather). The reason is the forces that these exert are insignificant when compared to tectonic forces. You have to go to Jupiter (and it's moons) for tidal-forced eruptions.

I hope you don't still think that the sun and other planets rotate around Earth...?
The moon does, but the others don't.
There is a scientist who has done studies and believes that the full moon has effects on the tectonic plates causing earthquakes.

Nope not quite ..n they cannot... coz such astronomical attrations can cause certain effects in the Biosphere (which includes Atmosphere + Hydrospehere). But cannot affect the Lithosphere (i.e. the crust v r standing on and quite a few km downwards ) as to make any changes to it the energy requirement is quite how, which can only b supplied from inside movemnets of earth, covection etc.

I would say the only relationship would have to come from the Sun or Moon. These are the only two solar system components that have an effect on the Earth strong enough to cause changes in the Earth that might affect your list of crustal changes.

Moon and the sea. Yes. Because the sea has an attraction to the moon. I don't any part of Earth is attrached to any planets. Unless, UFO left them here.

Of course there is, although the connection is not well understood. Where do you think all the energy comes from that got the plates shifting in the first place?
