Hawaii has 3562 volcanoes, but only 387 of them are under water.
Lava easily spews out of plate faults making volcanoes.
One of the most active areas for volcanoes found under the sea is known as Pacific Rim of Fire. This area has many volcanoes that could have a devastating effect if they erupt on areas including the Philippines.
No one knows exactly how many volcanoes are on the earth. There are approximately 1,500 volcanoes that have been active for the past 10,000 years. From the beginning of the earths time, the number of volcanoes could number in the millions.
Many people believe that Hawaii was formed from volcanoes just above the water, not quite under water volcanoes, but very close. Ash and lava covered the water and started to harden. These eventually became the Hawaiian Islands. The volcanoes in Hawaii are still active and Hawaii is still constantly growing.
that is known as the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire has many volcanoes and is an earthquake danger zone.
no, it has many volcanoes
well , that is a good question ! About 1,300 has happened in the last 10,000 year. Most of these are shield volcanoes. Shield volcanoes are found under water or and form easily. three quarters ( 3/4 ) of volcanoes are shield volcanoes. SO if you subtract all of the shield volcanoes from the amount of volcanoes that have happened in the last 10,000 years it will come up to 6,000 eruptions in the last 10,000 years. This is not including under water or shield volcanoes. WELL, that's all . BYE ! (:
Volcanoes are only destructive to people and property when they erupt. Volcanoes can lie dormant for decades before they erupt. The Hawaiian Islands were all formed from eruptions of volcanoes in the ocean.
Weathering, plate movements and volcanoes destroyed many of the craters
We don't know. We can only catalog the volcanoes we know about. There are probably more dormant volcanoes, especially under the ocean, that we haven't found yet.
