Can scientists predict volcanic eruptions?
Yes, scientists can predict volcanic eruptions, but only to a certain extent of accuracy. One method is to use earthquakes. Earthquakes usually increase and become more violent before a volcanic eruption
What is the role of PHIVOLCS?
The role of PHIVOLCS is to predict the accurance of volcanic eruptions and earthquakes in the Philippines
True or false scientists can prevent volcanoes eruptions by carefully monitoring volcanoes?
False. Nobody can prevent a volcanic eruption, though scientists have some ability to predict eruptions.
What do we monitor about volcanoes to predict eruptions?
In order to try to predict a volcanic eruption, scientists monitor the distribution of earthquakes near the volcano, the quantity, temperature, and composition of gas emissions, and look for deformation of the volcano itself. All of these can be used to determine if magma is moving underground, how close it is to the surface, and even how obstructed it is.
What three methods do scientist's use to predict volcanic eruptions?
Four clues that scientists use to predict eruptions are... -studying dormant volcanoes -monitoring small earthquakes that occur before the eruption -studying the ratio of gases collected -studying active volcanoes

Do scientists use volcanoes to predict earthquakes?
Yes, scientists use volcanoes to predict earthquake activity, because volcanic and earthquake activity go together. Volcanic eruptions spew out lava whose source is in the magma of the mantle. Earthquakes are caused by heat from the mantle making crustal [or lithospheric or tectonic] plates move.
How do scientists predict a drought?
redicting the size, location, and timing of natural hazards is virtually impossible, but now, earth scientists are able to forecast hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, wildfires, and landslides using fractals.
True or false scientists can prevent volcanoes eruptions by carefully monitoring volcanoes?
False. Nobody can prevent a volcanic eruption, though scientists have some ability to predict eruptions.
What are the warnings for a tsunami?
You can't really predict a tsunami, but If you hear about any underwater earthquakes or volcanic eruptions, that can sometimes mean there will be a tsunami.

How do humans attempt to predict or control volcanic eruptions?
ur booty
When is the next predicted eruption in mt nyiragongo?
Volcanic eruptions are almost as difficult to predict as earthquakes. Any "prediction" would be little better than throwing darts at the calendar.
Why do scientist want to be able to predict earthquakes?
Scientists want to be able to predict earthquakes to save peoples lives.
Are scientist able to predict earthquakes?
no but scientists are working on it
