Lava Girl is a tall woman who dresses in all black, and has long, black, straight hair. She came from Hawaii, and now lives on a volcano in Seattle, Washington also. She gets angry…

A shield volcano slopes gently. Cinder cone volcanoes are the most common type and have cone-shaped peaks. Stratovolcanoes are known as composite volcanoes because of the layering within the volcano. Inside there are layers that alternate between lava, ash, and un-melted rock. These volcanoes are considered the most violent type because of the eruptions. Pressure is able to build within the different layers and when the magma is finally able to reach the top, the volcano will explode. Often, due…

Mount St. Helens is a volcanic stratovolcano still actively located in the Cascade Range in Western North America in the state of Washington. It was formed by a subduction plate boundary also located on the Juan de Fuca plate. The Cascade range is one of the most famous mountain ranges, and has one of the most active volcanos located in Western North America. Other areas or famous landmarks surrounding Mount St. Helens are the South Fork Toutle River, North Fork Toutle River, Castel lake,…

The moai statues lie on an island in Chile, commonly known as Easter island or Rapu Nui to its earlier people. The island is 64 square miles, and located 2,500 miles from Tahiti and 2.300 miles from Chile. Each statue ranges from 12 to 14 feet tall, and weighs approximately a ton. Although no written history lies on the land, historians believe the statues represented important people such as ancestors, chiefs or worshipped deity’s. The people of the island were sea farers who most likely…

The volcanic eruption is one of the most common natural disasters around the world along history. The volcanic eruption is highly dangerous while costing many loss of lives and financial costs. Many volcanic eruptions seem so similar yet different; there are different levels of damages. There are two similar volcanic eruptions in history, which were both similar but different: the Mt. Pelee eruption in 1902 and Mt. St. Helens eruption in 1980. And through comparing the two eruptions, the…

named after their shape. Cinder cone Volcanoes, also known as the Scoria Cone, is the most simplest volcano. They are less than 300 meters high, making them the shortest volcano. The Cinder Cone volcano is made from blobs and particles of congealed lava. Eruptions from Cinder Cone volcanoes are very small compared to other volcanoes such as Shield Volcanoes, Composite Volcanoes, etc. The last Cinder Cone volcano…

Teesdale is revered as one of the most beautiful and spectacular areas in England. Its peaceful, unspoilt landscape is richly endowed with natural beauty and provides an incredible feeling of solitude and tranquillity. In 1988 the whole of Upper Teesdale was included in the designation for the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). It stretches across 772 square miles (2000km²) and takes in parts of County Durham, Cumbria and Northumbria. The area is well-known for its…

The plate tectonic theory was developed in the 1960’s and it is extremely important to have a fond understanding of as it is an explanation of the amazing scientific feats that have happened and are still happening in our world today. For example, it explains why the land we stand on is in its place, how volcanoes, tsunamis and mountains are formed and many more scientific phenomenon. This theory is that the outer shell of Earth is separated into multiple plates, which are floating on the mantle…

At about 9.30 on August 21, 1986, rumbling sounds lasting 15-20 seconds brought people out of their Cameroon homes in the small village of Nios. Not minutes after, a lethal gas cloud pooled out of nearby Lake Nyos and spread over the town. People reported smelling an odor like rotten eggs or gunpowder, felt a warm feeling, and quickly lost consciousness. Survivors, who woke 6-36 hours, felt disoriented and weak, and found that their friends and family were all dead. About a day later began the…

One location where the earth will be different from now is the Andean Volcanic Belt. This group of volcanoes are located near the western coast of South America, near the Andes mountains. From the Volcano Map, it can be seen that there is a large array of volcanos in certain spots of western South America. I believe that this particular formation will continue to form more and more volcanos as time goes by. This would most likely happen because of the subduction boundary going on (South American…
