Shield volcano

get to see an active volcano up close. However, having a few active volcanoes in Hawaii can be a threat to the island and to the people. It is important to discuss why do people enjoy living in Hawaii, knowing that there is a high probability of danger if one of the volcanoes’ erupts dramatically. How is Volcanic lava events after eruptions have an impact on the ecosystem and human settlement near an active volcano. The…

A Hurricane is a tropical cyclone or tropical storm that forms over in the Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, Southern Atlantic Ocean and the eastern Pacific Ocean. Close to the earth 's surface a cyclone is accompanied by thunderstorms and a circulation of counterclockwise winds. Hurricanes can hit the gulf Mexico and all of the Atlantic Ocean. Every year the Atlantic hurricane season starts on May 15 and will always end on November 30. Hundreds of miles inland and coastlines, hurricanes can cause…

When a volcano erupts it is hard to comprehend the destruction and devastation that may occur with the event. In ancient times when there was no science to explain why a mountain would spew fire, rocks, and ash cultures look for an alternative justification. Many cultures came to the conclusion that the best way to explain such an event was through legends, myths, and stories. The gods and goddesses described in these tales would do things that would create an eruption, such as Pele the Hawaiian…

This paper examples the formation of the Deccan traps, the Deccan continental flood basalt, and present day Indian. Its first provides a brief background on what the Deccan Traps are and the history of their geologic integrity. The proof is explained through scientists seismic tomographic models and the evolution of the Indian plate, the Reunion island hotspot, and the evolution of lithospheric mantle structure. Keywords: deccan, mantle, plate, hotspot, reunion, reconstructions.…

It was always hot outside. There was no seasons, no difference in weather besides the temperature which varied, but it was always at least 80℉.There weren’t many people around because they couldn’t stay healthy enough. The people would either die because of dehydration or lack of food. That land was called No-Man 's World, but there was another human sustaining land above No-Man 's World. The people knew nothing about this land. That mysterious land was called Earth. The people in No-Man 's…

What are the characteristics of a tsunami? A tsunami is a large series of long wavelengths and period (time between crests) which can vary from a few minutes to over an hour. A Tsunami is a natural disaster and can be generated by any large, impulsive displacement of the sea level. An example of this is earthquakes with a magnitude of 6.5 or greater, landslides into or under the water surface, volcanic activity and meteorite impacts. Two tsunamis occur per year throughout the world which inflict…

Eggs are the most fragile thing you can find, one drop and they will break. What can we do to protect the egg from breaking when it falls? First, there are many factors that affect the egg when it falls. The factors are momentum, air resistance, pressure, gravity, and angular momentum. The first factor is Momentum; it is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. “P” is the 3D vector stating the object’s momentum in 3 directions of 3D space. Where “V” is the 3D velocity vector giving the…

4.2.5. The Fantale geothermal prospect area The Fantale geothermal prospect is characterized by recent summit felsic lava, caldera collapse, extrusions in the caldera bottom and widespread fumarolic activity, signifying thereby the existence of a shallow magma chamber (Tekelemariam and Beyene, 2005). Active tensional tectonics form fissures up to 2m near the volcanic complex. From the area ground water discharge to the system is guaranteed by the proximity of the area to the western escarpment.…

2.2.3 Definition of Chelating Ligand EDTA From the above discussion, it can be concluded that chelating ligand EDTA is a process of reversible bond formation of a ligand that serves as chelating ( chelting agent or Chelator) that exist within the compound of EDTA. Basically, EDTA combines with some specific ion, so it causes the functions of EDTA as chelator. When the functions of EDTA as chelator, EDTA is a liquid ( solution) 2.3 Volcanic Ash Volcanic ash or sand is volcanic material debris…

The Lava Beds National Monument, I believe would be a great place for students to learn about nature. Located on the border of California and Oregon, the lonely road leads to something amazing. To something some may consider as California's "best kept secret." The Lava Beds National Monument, is one of the most visited national monuments in America. It attracts only one hundred thirty thousand visitors each year but the "secret" underground caves and volcanic rock of the park is full of…
