  • Volcanic Eruptions Directly Related
    322 words
    2. There are three main factors that determine the nature of volcanic eruptions. Each factor has defined characteristics that can determine the effects of the volcano. The factors are the magmas composition, temperature and the amount of dissolved gases. Each of these affects the magmas viscosity, which is directly related to the nature of the eruption. The amount of silica content is directly related to the viscosity, as well. The composition of Mafic magma is about 50 % silica, which makes it ...

    It was once thought that volcanic eruptions were the result of water moving into highly heated area of the earth. That not true any more. More recently, with the better understanding of the movement of the earth's crust plates, known as plate tectonics, has been accepted as generating the energy that causes a volcanic eruption. (Microsoft, Encarta) Volcanoes form at the site of 2 kind of plate boundaries. The convergent plate plunges under another divergent plate. The lower plate is drawn down t...

  • Circular Motion Earthquake Earthquakes
    316 words
    Before talking about Earthquake, we have to get a better understanding about the Earth, and what happen to it that causes the movement called Earthquake. Lets start saying that the Earth is divided into three parts: the crust, the mantle, and the core. The mantle of the earth is where many earthquakes begin, in that place, the temperatures are very hot. The heat causes some rock to soften; this softened rock is called magma that moves through the mantle in a circular motion. This process is call...

    ter> Describe the frequency, origin and distribution of earthquakes at mid-ocean ridges, ocean basins, subduction zones and continental shields. Earthquakes are happening almost everyday all over the world. Most of the time earthquakes are not strong enough to be felt by people, but the shaking caused by an earthquake is recorded by a seismogram. These are located all over the world at different points. Only occasionally will a larger magnitude earthquake strike and cause damage to the...

  • Earth Crust Molten Rock
    372 words
    How Are Mountains Formed? Mountains are formed over long periods of time by forces of the earth. Mountains just don't appear in any place. Most are formed when plates, or huge pieces of the Earth's crust, pull and push against each other. Great mountain ranges are formed by the movement of tectonic plates. Convection currents deep in the mantle of the earth, begins to well up towards the surface. As the pressure increases, it sets the crustal plates in motion. There are different kinds of mounta...

    The core is divided into two parts, the solid inner core and the liquid outer core. The inner core is thought to be solid and primarily made up of iron and some nickel. The outer core is all around the inner core and is believed to be made up of liquid iron mixed with liquid nickel. The outer core is about 2890 to 5100 km. The inner core is 5100 to 6378 km. Earths mantle is mainly composed of substances high in iron and magnesium. The melting point of every substance depends on the pressure and ...

    941 words
    The plates which are about 20 miles thick, make up the earth's crust and are a chief cause of volcanic activity. These plates are always in motion. They move very slowly, however some at times bump in to each other. These movements put a lot of pressure on the surface rock. Volcanoes obtain their energies from such movement and pressure. Volcanoes form at the boundaries of these plate where two types of movement occurs, two plates will collide with each other or the plates will move apart from e...

  • Tectonic Plates Molten Rock
    689 words
    In 1912, Alfred Wegener, a German scientist, was the first to notice this and develop the theory of plate tectonics. He noticed that the earth's continents fit together almost like a jigsaw puzzle. This, combined with the fact that similar fossils and rock types are found on different continents separated by large bodies of water, helped him formulate his conjecture. He contended that the plates at one point formed one large continent called Pangea, which allowed like fossils and rock types to b...

    1,406 words
    When there is a sudden breaking of rocks within the earth or an explosion, wave like energy travels through the earth and is recorded on seismographs. These are called seismic waves and they are of two types: body waves and surface waves categorized into different kinds. What we will be discussing are body waves; there are two types of body waves: primary waves (P waves) and secondary waves (S waves). Both kinds travel through the Earths interior in all directions and arrive before the surface w...

    Plate tectonics are a relatively new theory that has revolutionized the way geologists think about the Earth. According to the theory, the surface of the Earth is broken into large plates. The size and position of these plates change over time. The hypothesis of continental drift was largely developed by the German Alfred Wegener The edges of these plates, where they move against each other, are sites of intense geologic activity, such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain building. Plate tect...

  • Square Miles Miles North
    1,106 words
    Lateral Blast The sudden removal of the volcano's north flank released pressure on the hydrothermal and magmatic system within the volcano, triggering a devastating lateral blast to the north. The abrupt pressure release, or " uncorking, " of the volcano by the avalanche can be compared in some ways to the removal of the cap from a vigorously shaken bottle of soda pop, or to punching a hole in a boiler tank under high pressure. The northward-directed lateral blast of rock, ash, and hot...

    Kamilla Denman Emerson, in his famous lecture on " The American Scholar, " declared: " The human mind is one central fire, which flaming now out of the lips of Etna, lightens the capes of Sicily; and, now out of the throat of Vesuvius, illuminates the towers and vineyards of Naples. It is one light which beams out of a thousand stars. It is one soul which animates all men. " The volcano that animates Dickinson's writing, however, is a far more violent force, an image of devas...
