Lava

plan to catch up on all the shows I never have time to watch, if only these inconsiderate effing people would be quiet. These tremors are nothing new, it happens any time this volcano decides to spew a little lava. Give it a couple of days some steam will spew from the top, a little lava will roll down the side, and life will finally go back to…

The basaltic and andesitic volcanic lavas and pyroclastic rocks are deposited in the sedimentary basin in which magmas are enriched in iron and to some extent manganese. Due to mafic magmatism and subsequent heat exchange, high-temperature hydrothermal fluids pass through the volcano-sedimentary…

Erta- Ale, is today the longest continually erupting volcano on the planet. It is pretty much a lake of lava that has been molten for over 100 years. These same volcanic forces are what created Ethiopia’s highlands. Seventy million years ago, Ethiopia’s land was just flat and deep terrestrial land. It wasn’t until molten lava rose from the Earth’s core and crated a huge dome of rock 500 miles wide: the roof of Africa. The summit is about three miles high and are home to some very…

“Vancouver! Vancouver! This is it!” Those were the last words anyone heard from David Johnson. He had been closely monitoring a steaming, trembling snow-capped mountain near Vancouver, Washington. Mount St. Helens had not erupted in over 100 years. But two months earlier, an earthquake had jolted it to life. Homes were evacuated and roads were closed as hundreds of explosive blasts of steam burst from the volcano and earthquakes shook the area. Scientists knew that pressure was building up…

So my volcano caused the deaths of 2,000 lives of men and women. The name of my volcano is Mount Vesuvius and back in august 79 AD it caused the city of Pompeii to be destroyed. Volcanos can go off at anytime and anywhere. Earlier before the volcano erupted it was a hot sunny day and the sun was beating down on all the citizens of Pompeii and made them all move to the middle where the water fountain was. As most people went to the middle the volcano started to erupt and put a cloud of ash that…

New York exists on bedrock that tells a tale of millions of years ago, going as far back as the late Mesoproterozoic (1.6 to 1 billion years ago). The layers that make up this bedrock show the conditions of the earth’s surface through many different orogenies, which are times of high grade metamorphism and where plate tectonics makes its biggest changes. The Fordham gneiss was formed a billion years ago (oldest) during the Grenville orogeny (Precambrian) which featured sediment deposits and…

Loowit to the Klickitat. Mount St. Helens is an active stratovolcano or composite volcano, a steepsided and often symmetrical cone constructe. Thess type of volcanoes tend to erupt explosively and pose considerable danger to nearby life and property of lava flows, ash, and other volcanic debris. Mount St. Helens takes its English name from the British diplomat Lord St. Helens in the late 18th century. The last eruption was on March 20, 1980. A 5.1- magnitude earthquake hit Mount St. Helen…

all you need to know about the volcano. Mount St. Helens is a stratovolcano. Stratovolcanoes are also considered to be a composite volcano. Composite volcanoes are the type of cone-shaped volcanoes. Mount St. Helens is made up of layers of hardened lava and rock fragments, because it is a composite volcano. Mount St. Helens has had many eruptions in the past so it means that it is an active volcano,an explosive volcano, and it is dormant. It’s magma is high in silica, so Mount St. Helens…

is describing as a third rock in the reading passage. The reading passage informs us about the characteristics of the three rocks. The most common rock is Igneous rock which means fire. The example of it is granite. By cooling and solidification of lava, igneous rock will be formed, and this makes up approximately 64.7% of the earth’s crust. The second common one is Sedimentary rocks, which means sit, and the representative example is Sandstone. Sedimentary rock is composed of a little particle…

Volcanoes exist all around the world. A volcano is a break in the Earth’s crust that produces lava, gases, ash. Some volcanoes are active and some volcanoes extinct and dormant. Magma usually forms 30 to 120 miles beneath Earth’s surface. Most volcanoes are tourist attractions and most people like to climb them and to live near them to produce some heat to there house when the people don't have any heat. Villarrica is located in the country of chile. Villarrica has a 4 star warning and…
