Where are the most explosive volcanoes subduction zones or rift zones?
Explosive volcanoes are most common at subduction zones.
Is Shield volcanoes found along subduction zones?
Cone volcanoes which are likely to erupt explosively are found at subduction zones. Spreading zones (constructive plate boundaries) and hot spots produce quieter volcanoes because their lava is thinner. The ones at hot spots are shield volcanoes.
Why do subduction volcanoes erupt continuously?
They don't. Few, if any volcanoes in the world do. The volcanoes, especially at subduction zones, will often go dormant for years and even centuries without erupting.
Is Cleveland volcano a result of subduction?
Yes. All the Aleutian volcanoes are the result of subduction.
What kind of volcanoes form along subduction zones?
Usually composite volcanoes. subduction zone volcanos usually form steep sided composite cones composed primarily of andesite
Where are most shield volcanoes?
along subduction-related arcs
How are Lassen peak and Mount Shasta related to subduction?
these volcanoes are the southernmost volcanoes of the cascade volcanic chain.
Where are the most explosive volcanoes subduction zones or rift zones?
Explosive volcanoes are most common at subduction zones.
Do Hotspot volcanoes occur along subduction zones.?
No, hotspot volcanoes do not occur along subduction zones. They occur when plates pass over mantle hot spots.
Is Shield volcanoes found along subduction zones?
Cone volcanoes which are likely to erupt explosively are found at subduction zones. Spreading zones (constructive plate boundaries) and hot spots produce quieter volcanoes because their lava is thinner. The ones at hot spots are shield volcanoes.
Where can subduction volcanoes be located?
In the continental side of the subduction zones and island arks.
Why do subduction volcanoes erupt continuously?
They don't. Few, if any volcanoes in the world do. The volcanoes, especially at subduction zones, will often go dormant for years and even centuries without erupting.
Is Cleveland volcano a result of subduction?
Yes. All the Aleutian volcanoes are the result of subduction.
Where is subduction volcanoes found?
On a destructive margin
What kind of volcanoes form along subduction zones?
Usually composite volcanoes. subduction zone volcanos usually form steep sided composite cones composed primarily of andesite
Hotspot volcanoes occur along subduction zones?
No
What is a good sentence for subduction zone?
Volcanoes are most commonly associated with the top plate in subduction zones.
