Volcano

There are many land formations and I chose these three. The first one is a canyon, it’s located in Arizona and its name is Grand Canyon. The second one is a volcano it’s found in Washington State, Cascade Range and it is named Mount St. Helens. The last one is a plateau and it can be found in central Asia and it is called Tibetan Plateau. And then I’ll be comparing the different land forms. The Grand Canyon is in Northern Arizona with an elevation of 8,000 feet. The process of the…

present in the lower 48. The people there have a much different life, and adapt their lifestyle to fit living up there. One of the things that every new inhabitant of Anchorage is quickly taught is about is Mount Spurr (1). Mount Spurr is the closest volcano to Anchorage only 130 KM West of Anchorage. The volcanic eruptions have a huge effect on the town of Anchorage. For example in 1992 when Mt Spurr erupted…

Scientists have been predicting it would take many centuries for Yellowstone to become an active volcano again, but now they’re cutting that time down to as little as a few decades. Over the last 2.1 million years, the Yellowstone Caldera has erupted three times, and geologists note that the majority of the park’s features like geysers and hot springs are thanks to the volcanic activity. The timeline for the volcano being active again is up for debate, but a study of Yellowstone Caldera in 2013…

because of the major damages it had caused to the park. A new record had been broken by Mount Rainier, in 1971, for the most snowfall in a year. In 1999 Mount Rainier had celebrated being 100 years old, and had many festive events. Mount Rainier, the volcano, is around a million years old, the national park is only around 30 years old. Before Mount Rainier became a national park it used to have human life live near it; it had six different indian tribes: Yakama, Puyallup, Squaxin Island,…

Catastrophe is a topic of debate for many scientists around the world. The eruption happened around 3500 years ago. The main issue today is how disastrous was the impact of the of the eruption and the resulting tsunami. 1.1 Santorini Island The Thera volcano is located in the west part of the Mediterranean on the island of Santorini in Greece. (Figure1) The disaster had a massive impact on all aspects of the region. The consensus in the scientific community is the eruption caused an extremely…

risen long before the sun to start their chores, some just sat outside, listening to the sounds of the ocean. This was the quietest part of the day, for no one was to speak when the phoenix arose. To the south stood the volcano Hiroma de Boukore, noble and green. Inside this volcano, as all the inhabitants of the island Methana knew, lived a phoenix. A bird that lived in the bubbling lava it had created inside Hiroma, he was worshiped by all those who did not wish to die a most painful death.…

erupted after sitting dormant along time.” Also “ The countdown for an eruption begins when there is evidence of magma moving into the crust.” The contradiction has good evidence as well as the last. That the super volcano in not near eruption. Old Faithful could be connected to the super volcano along with the other geysers. Geysers formation relies on magma. When water from the surface goes down underground and comes into contact with magma it heats the water quickly. It creates steam and…

Nobody has an accurate count of the world’s volcanoes, and around fifty to seventy volcanos erupt every year. How do volcanoes affect people and environments? Volcanos around the world affect the environments by making the soil more rich and crops easier to grow, due to the deposits the volcanoes put out. People are also affected by volcanoes by making the environments more beautiful, which causes more tourists to come see the beauty of the land. Volcanoes around the world affect the…

cool because you’re basically “riding the waves”. So many beach movies I’ve seen include surfing and I’ve always wondered what it would be like if I was on the surfboard. I would also love to explore tourist spots like Mauna Loa, the world’s largest volcano! I researched Mauna…
