Volcano - a fissure or vent through which molten rock material‚ or magma‚ and gases from the interior of the Earth erupt on to its surface‚ and the landform which is produced as a result of this eruption. The word "volcano" comes from Vulcano‚ one of the volcanic Lipari Islands in the Mediterranean Sea‚ and the place where‚ according to Roman mythology‚ Vulcan

The spanish translation for the volcano name‚ El Chichon only means ¨THE BUMP¨. El Chichon‚ one of many volcanoes that have been deadly to this world. The famous caldera has an elevation of 3‚773 feet‚ located on a convergent boundary. The volcano was considered quiet until 1982‚ which is now an explosive volcano. It has been said to erupt every 300 years‚ but there has been times when it has been overdue. Even though this volcano isn’t going to erupt for another 300 years‚ I would not live near

Explanation Writing- Volcanoes Cinder cone Cinder cone is a cone shaped volcano A cinder cone or scoria cone is a steep conical hill of loose pyroclastic fragments Cinder cones are the simplest type of volcano They are built from particles and blobs of congealed lava ejected from a single vent. Cinder cones tend to be small‚ like hill-sized volcanoes When lava that is in cinder cone is highly charged with gas bubbles erupts from a vent under pressure‚ it tends to shoot straight up into the air

Introduction There are over 20 active volcanos left in the world today. Have you ever wondered or learned about what causes a volcano? Volcanic eruptions can be a huge deal for the environment and the people around it. What causes do volcanos have on the environment and what cause does it have on the people? Well the truth is‚ the causes of active volcanos there are today‚ do have effects on its surroundings. What is a volcano‚ and what causes it to erupt? Volcanoes occur at weak points in the

the volcano sits far below the ocean’s surface‚ even a major eruption may not be detected from above. Nonetheless‚ care must be taken when exploring areas surrounding a submarine volcano. Since 1650‚ when the Kolumbo submarine volcano erupted‚ killing at least 70 people on the nearby Greek island of Santorini‚ submerged volcanoes have been known to be deadly. Submarine volcanoes‚ as the name suggests‚ are volcanoes that sit under water on the ocean floor. The biggest underwater volcano is

some volcanoes more hazardous than others? There are several reasons that influence volcanic hazards‚ these include the viscosity of the magma‚ proximity to population centres‚ materials that are ejected from the volcano‚ the magnitude of the eruption and the plate margin that the volcano rests upon. The viscosity of the magma depends on 3 things‚ the temperature‚ dissolved gasses and the chemistry involved in the magma. These factors produce 2 main types of magma called acid and basic. The acid

There are factors which can influence the severity of the hazard and cause differences in them and can be classified into different categories‚ such as physical‚ economic‚ political and social. One physical factor which causes differences in a volcanic hazard is the steepness of the volcano. If the volcanoes
