Volcanoes are erupting because this is how much pressure they have. “ Volcanoes can remove heat from the interior,” according to Oregonstate.edu. Volcanoes do wonderful things for Earth. There are many dangerous volcanoes. One of the most dangerous volcano is the Campi in Flegrei, Italy. Campi had more recent history of a very large eruptions. Campi is right in the smack of the middle of an area, with over 6 million people living there. Campi is part under the Bay of Naples. One of the most…
created by other volcanic eruptions such as the Cinder Cone volcano. I am going to inform you about the Cinder Cone volcano, Shield volcano and the Composite volcano. Cinder Cone volcanoes are the smallest volcano in the world and are 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.…
at least one volcano erupts and damages many things around them, but how do volcanoes effect the people and their environment? There are many different types of volcanoes such as the cinder cone volcano, shield volcano and many more but what they all have in common is that they effect the environment and the people living in it. How do volcanoes affect people and environments? There are different ways volcanoes can affect the people and the environment. It could be an active volcano, volcanic…
stones, and contribute to global cooling. Stromboli, Piton de la Fournaise, and Krakatoa, three famous volcanoes, are located around the world and actually hold a great significance. Each volcano has its own characteristics and provides its geographical location with many advances. Because volcanoes bare…
ever heard the joke, the joke about the volcano that blew off its top? Has it ever crossed your mind that it might actually happen, that it might actually blow off its top, possibly fill with water and create a lake, become national park?! Well if you haven’t, this unique volcano is called Mount Mazama, and it has transformed into the beloved Crater Lake. Mount Mazama is located in Oregon state, and had been overlapping from a composite volcano to a shield volcano, as well as spreading it’s ash…
Thesis: Many geologists find the main categories of volcanoes including cinder cones, composite, shield, and lava domes are essential aspects of understanding the structure of volcanoes. Topic #1: The Explanation of Volcanoes 1. “A volcano is a rupture in the Earth’s crust which allows magma/ash/gases to escape from beneath the surface. When magma reaches the surface of the Earth, it is called lava” (). 2. Volcanoes happen around the frame of tectonic plates, causing the plates to move away…
the funnel of a volcano, and if so how and will you survive? And do all volcanoes function the same way? As a child, we never understood that the beautiful hot magma that flows from the volcano is dangerous and burns everything in its path. Two volcanoes that have always caught my eye is Hawaii’s Kilauea and Japan’s Mount Fujiyama. Both volcanoes are located on an island that was formed due to tectonic plates shifting, furthermore both volcanoes represent different types of volcano forms,…
be able to do is brace ourselves and hope for the best. What if one day we woke up and had to prepare for a volcanic eruption? Not just an eruption, but a super volcanic eruption. There is a super volcano here in the U.S. and is alive and well that lies beneath Yellowstone National Park. This super volcano has the capacity of sending our nation back to the stone age and there is not much we can do about it, except hope and pray that we never experience the aftermath of a…
The volcano is part of the Pico de The volcano Parícutin is located in the volcanic fields in Míchoacan-Guanajuato.This volcano is also the greatest in both area. This volcano has not erupted since 1952. Also the elevation of the volcano is 9,186’. The volcano Parícutin was named by a nearby village of Parícutin. The volcano is the youngest of the approximately 1,400 volcanic vents of the Míchoacan-Guanajuato volcanic field. The volcanic field is 40,000 square kilometers (15,000 square miles).…
in slow motion, creating a long process that eventually resulting in the formation of volcanoes. The Cascade Range of the Pacific Northwest is known for its deep evergreen forests and numerous tall jagged cones and this area is home to the Strato-Volcano Peak known today as Mount St. Helens. Originally named “Louwala-Clough,” or “Smoking Mountain,” by the Native American Indians in the region. Many legends were handed down explaining accounts about eruptions the Indians witnessed about Mount St.…
