ash and half of your house is destroyed by lava. Many citizens living near Mount Fuji could have lived in constant fear hoping that Mount Fuji wouldn’t erupt. Its last eruption was December 16‚ 1707- January 1‚ 1708 still an active volcano today. Mount fuji was present about 10‚000 years ago. Mount Fuji is a symbol of Japan and it’s a inspirational modern art. Mount Fuji has made an impact on people and wildlife. This volcano is was formed from repeated lava. Mount Fuji is an active stratovolcano made

Earth and Space Science 3.1 Achievement Standard 91412 Auckland Geological History * Nature of Auckland’s Volcanoes * Eruption History Volcanoes are an important feature of the Auckland city landscape. In most cases they are emphasized by their different forms such as reserves and parks‚ while in the other locations‚ they have been quarried away to meet the city’s demand for construction material. According to research‚ distributed over a 20km radius are approximately about 49 volcanoes

molten rock’s surface tension. What the scientist found was how some volcanoes function on the inside. In past years‚ volcanologists believed that flowing lava sinks back down and settles after an eruption‚ pressing on the magma below and crushing all of the bubbles‚ which makes pressure build up under the compacted lava. This leaves the lava sitting there...Until it explodes. Pow! This hints at why some volcanoes will go through cycles of flowing and explosive eruptions. Volcanoes also make sound

Rock Extrusive rocks are also called volcanic rocks and extrusive rocks are formed on the earth’s surface. Extrusive rocks also form from magma‚ but a form of lava. Magma flows onto the earth’s surface by an eruption by a volcano. When the magma hits the earth’s surface‚ the magma turns into lava. Extrusive rocks are formed by lava‚ and the lava will harden quickly and crystallize quickly‚ either by hot spots or on the earth’s surface. Igneous rocks are considered felsic‚ intermediate‚ mafic‚ and ultramafic

Vesuvius and Mount Tambora are stratovolcanoes. A stratovolcano is a tall‚ conical volcano that often reaches the height of 2500 meters. They are made up of one layer of hardened lava‚ tephra (often called block rocks or bombs)‚ and volcanic ash and are characterized by a step profile and periodic and explosive eruptions. The lava is highly viscous or thick‚ it cools and hardens quickly before spreading far. The magma is composed of rock that is acidic‚ and high in silica. Mount Vesuvius reaches the

Geology a science that examines the earth‚ its form and composition‚ and the changes it has undergone and is undergoing involves the knowledge of what happened before and the events occurring within the atmosphere requires not only a study of the materials found on earth but an understanding of the various geologic processes aims to develop an understanding of the earth’s materials and how these materials were changed and modified through the action of natural forces over a period of time Geology
