The magma starts out in the magma chamber, pressure pushes it up into the pipe, then the vent, and then it comes out of the crater.

its stays in the magma chamber then it goes slowly or fastly up the pipe to the side vent to the crater and out the vent

Why does magma flow through upward through the crust?

Liquid magma flows upward through cracks in rock because it is less dense than the surrounding material


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.


Why don't volcanoes melt they got lava in them?

It's a matter of the energy needed. In order to melt the rock that makes it up, you have to heat it up to the melting point, and then provide additional energy to actually melt it. The amount of rock that makes up a volcano is larger than the amount of magma (underground molten rock) inside of it. The magma transfers heat into the surrounding rock and some of it can melt, but to do this, the magma itself must lose heat to do this, and the amount of energy, though large, is limited and the magma would cool and harden before it could melt a large portion of the surrounding rock. Additionally, rock is a poor conductor of heat. Rocks on the surface of the volcano will not be heated by magma hundreds to thousands of feet below. Furthermore, magma is not stored in the volcano itself, but in a magma chamber several thousand feet to several miles below it. When lava is erupted on the surface it loses heat to the air rather quickly, and cools before it can melt the surface rock.


Correct order of decreasing magma viscosity?

The amount of viscosity present in magma depends on the amount of silica it has. A composite volcano produces rhyolitic lava which is very thick. A shield volcano produces a basaltic lava with less silica and significantly less viscosity.


How is the volcano different from a mountain?

Essentially a volcano is a type of mountain. Mountain are formed due to the collision of 2 continental tectonic plates. The compressing or 'converging' plates forms folds in the crust, and if little erosion has occurred to wear down these folds, they eventually continue to rise and may break to form a buildup of 'thrusts', which build on top of each other and form mountain ranges. Volcanoes typically occur due to the collision of a continental plate and an oceanic plate, where the denser oceanic plate undergoes 'subduction' and slips under the less dense continental plate. The extreme heat and pressure exerted on this subducting oceanic plate, causing uplifting of magma from the earth's mantle, which rises and breaches the surface, creating a volcano. There must be some fissure or crack in the crust in order for a volcano to form and the magma to rise through, while mountains are simply the crumpling of two landmasses. But keep in mind, that volcanoes may also later become mountains if they become completely dormant and no more lava (magma that has surfaced) is emitted.

Why do you think earthquakes are likely to occur at the same time when the volcano is about to erupt?

In order for a volcano to erupt, magma must move toward the surface. This causes rock to shift and break underground, generating earthquakes.

What prevents lava from melting a volcano?

There are a few reasons for this. First, the amount of lava on a volcano during an eruption is small compared to the volume of the volcano itself. For a large volcano the effect would be rather like puring a boucket of water on an iceberg. Second, in order to melt, the rock must first be greatly heated up as, compared to the lava, they are freezing cold. All of this heat must be lost by the lava, which cools as a result. In addtion, lava on the surface is also loosing heat to the air. Third, if you look at the temperatures, the lava is actually closer to solidifying than the rock is to melting. The largest mass of molten rock, called magma when it is underground, is usually stored in a magma chamber a few miles beneath the volcano. Some of the surrounding rock may melt and become part of the magma, but this usually does not spread too far as rock is a poor conductor of heat.

What would happen first in order for a new island to be created by volcanic eruption?

Magma must find its way toward the surface of the crust.


Can you predict when a volcano is going to erupt?

It is impossible to precisely predict when a volcano will erupt or how large that eruption will be. However in attempting to make a prediction, scientists (geologists called vulcanologists) will look at the history of past eruptions to determine how the volcano has behaved in the past, this will tell the scientist roughly how often the volcano erupts and the type/size of these eruptions. If the volcano is considered to be 'active' or dangerous, the scientist will map the volcano determining it shape, and height precisely and install GPS sensors, tilt meters and seismographs on the volcano at strategic positions. These will then be monitored (usually from a remote location as the instruments will be capable of sending in their data by radio). When the volcano starts to become active, earthquakes will be detected (starting deep and getting shallower and shallower as magma rises up in the volcano's plumbing). As the magma reaches the upper magma chambers the volcano will inflate (get bigger / higher) and the tilt meters will tilt. When this happens the scientists will issue a warning that the volcano is likely to erupt. =============================================== Before a volcano erupts, magma (molten rock) rises towards the surface, breaking rock en route. As more pushes up, the rocks around it vibrate. This results in earthquakes that can sometimes cause damage to buildings but are nothing like the big tectonic quakes seen on the west coast of the US or recently in Turkey. Any sudden change in quake activity around an active volcano will, hopefully, give scientists enough time to sound warnings. The magma also causes ground deformation. "As magma rises into a volcano, it has to make space for itself and that means that the ground has to swell," says McGuire. Every year, his team travels to Mount Etna to measure the relative positions of several reference points using sophisticated GPS recording receivers. Any changes in position - of the order of tens of centimetres - could mean the onset of an eruption. David Rothery, a researcher in the volcano dynamics group at the Open University, uses another method of detecting potential eruptions. Many volcanos have craters at the summit but it is usually too dangerous to put instruments there. He peers at craters from space using satellites that measure infrared radiation, and looks for any sudden changes in heat activity. He says that, depending on the volcano, scientists will get anything from several months to a few days notice of an eruption. In theory, then, eruptions shouldn't cause casualties. But this always depends on the evacuation plans for danger areas. Before Vesuvius erupts again, for example, 600,000 people will have to be evacuated, possibly at only a couple of weeks' notice. "It's a matter of political will, it doesn't come down to the science in the end," says McGuire
