What do scientist watch looking for bulges?
they watch the volcanoes slopes
What slopes does a shield volcano have?
Shield volcanoes typically have gentle slopes with angles ranging from 2-10 degrees. These low-angle slopes are a result of the highly fluid lava flows produced by shield volcanoes, which travel long distances before solidifying. This gradual build-up of lava layers over time creates the characteristic broad, dome-like shape of shield volcanoes.
Is a shield volcano pointed?
No. Shield volcanoes have broad, shallow slopes.
What type of volcanoes are Broad gradual slopes?
Broad, gradual slopes are characteristic of shield volcanoes. These volcanoes are formed primarily by the eruption of low-viscosity basaltic lava that can flow over great distances, creating a wide, gently sloping profile. Examples of shield volcanoes include Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea in Hawaii. Their gentle slopes result from the relatively fluid nature of the lava, allowing it to spread out over large areas.
Do volcanoes get names like tornadoes?
Since most volcanoes are mountains, they usually do have names. Tornadoes do not have names.
What are volcanoes with gentle slopes that cover large areas and occur in Hawaii called?
Volcanoes with gentle slopes that cover large areas and occur in Hawaii are called shield volcanoes. These volcanoes are characterized by their low-angle slope due to the fluid lava flows, which can extend over great distances. Examples include Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea in Hawaii.
What are the three different volcanoes?
The three different types of volcanoes include the following; shield volcanoes, composite volcanoes, and the cinder cone volcanoes. These all have their names because of the size and shape of the out rocks of the actual volcano itself.
What are the names of some of the volcanoes in Iceland?
EyjafjallajökullBárdarbunga grimsvótnheklakatlalakisurtseythese are some names of volcanoes in Iceland.
Why do volcanoes have glaciers on their slopes?
Well... not all volcanoes have glaciers on their slopes! Some volcanoes have glaciers on their slopes because the volcano just isn't hot! The volcano might be inactive, 'asleep' or even 'dead'... so there is no activity in it, which means no hot lava is moving about in it, so it doesn't heat up it's slopes (so they stay cold enough for the glacier not to melt or anything)!
What are the names of the mountains whose western slopes are in Tajikistan and whose eastern slopes are in China?
The Pamirs.
Why do Japan's volcanoes have steep slopes?
because japans volcanoes explode. So therefore, the magma does not flow down the volcano making it flat and smooth.
