Lava

the students to visit is the Lava River Cave. This is based on the diversity of the bats in the area, the accessibility of the cave and area, and the effect that white nose syndrome, or white nose syndrome, has had on the species of bats that live in the area. This cave in Coconino National Forest is close to the Northern Arizona University, and is by far the best choice for a class studying bats and white nose syndrome of the options given, which are the chosen cave (Lava River Cave), Antelope…

you ever walked through a lava tube? When we were on the Big Island, we got to walk through lava tubes. These tubes are chambers in which lava once flowed. It’s hollow because the lava cooled from the outside in which made it that way. We can’t travel through these on Oahu because we don’t have any lava tubes. All of our volcanoes are inactive. The Big island is better because of the many fun things to do. It is better than Oahu for 3 reasons, they have volcanoes, lava tubes, and historical…

leaves Moana because she nearly broke his hook, but Maui comes back to fight the lava monster and gives up his hook to save her. This shows that Maui wants to become a hero to Moana and everyone else because without his hook he has no powers, but after Moana gets to the Spiral and puts back the Stone of Creation: Maui would be a hero again. In the end of “Moana” When Moana almost got hit with a fire ball by the lava monster Maui uses his hook to block the fire ball. After Maui blocks the…

We usually think of volcanoes as just big mountains with lava spewing out of the top damaging everything in their path, but they can have a positive impact as well. How do volcanoes affect people and the environment? Volcanic lava and ash adds nutrients to plants and soil. They also provide great scenery, attracting tourists from all over the world. Volcanoes benefit the environment because after they erupt, the lava dries into rock which eventually breaks down and forms a rich soil. Plants…

on Earth. Volcanoes on Venus seem to have simple and fewer eruptive styles than the ones on Earth, but all involve the flow of lava. There has been no evidence yet of explosive ash-forming eruptions and little evidence of sludgy, viscous lavas. This maybe because of a few factors such as the high air pressure and Venusian lavas need much higher gas contents than Earth lavas to erupt explosively.…

please allow us to go on a field trip to Lava Beds National Monument. This trip would be amazingly exciting. Lava Beds National Monument is located in the state of California. California calls the monument their "best-kept secret." This is because not everyone knows about this beautiful sighting park. The park was formed when it was uncovered by lava and many active volcanoes were erupting. Do not worry, they are not active anymore. Also, underground lava tubes were formed as well. Lave tubes…

Earth it remains dormant and possess very little threat or hazard to mankind. The true danger comes from Mauna Loa and Kilauea. Over the decades Mauna Kea has spawned countless lava flow on the big island of Hawaii (see illustration below). Mauna Loa alone has erupted 32 times since 1843 until 1984 and has generated enough lava flows to cover 806 square kilometers at a volume of 4.124 km3 that is nearly 16 percent of the volcano's surface (USGS, 2004). Kilauea is may not the largest of the three…

habitat on other planets. Mars is a good planet to start looking at. Scientists have found a channel on Mars that indicates the planet could have been habitable at one point. What geological process formed the channel on Mars? Could flowing water or lava have formed the channel? I believe that flowing water created the channel found on Mars. What could have formed a channel on Mars? I found that in the evidence card A it showed examples of different channels formed by flowing water in different…

Mud flats are a vital type of marine habitat that provide several different functions for various marine invertebrates. They provide both permanent and temporary homes to small invertebrates including several species of worms, crabs, snails, and other benthic fauna. These organisms are responsible for the breakdown of organic materials often deposited here, as well as filling the role of prey for many predators that hunt in the shallow waters (Dyer et al., 2000). Mud flats are most often…

mantle. This causes hot lava to rise and cool lava to sink. The flooding magma causes the plates to move along with them. The convection currents are caused by the intence heat of the core and the cool air in the lithosphere. During this change in temperature,…
