What is the Long Valley calderas activity level?
Long Valley Caldera's current volcanic activity level is normal with aviation color code of green. (Updated 2-9-12 CalVO) This simply means that there is no out of the ordinary activity currently present in the Long Valley Volcanic Complex. For further information on the Long Valley Volcanic System as well as its monthly activity updates see the CalVO (California Volcano Observatory) website in the related links section.
Area where volcanic activity is taking place but not at a plate boundary?
Most movement occurs along narrow zones between plates where the ... Plate boundary zones -- broad belts in which boundaries are not well ... Africa, is but one segment of the global mid-ocean ridge system that encircles the Earth. ... Some of these rifting events were accompanied by volcanic activity.
Schematic models vs static system models?
Schematic system is a two dimensional chart depicting the elements and their linkages. eg Major elements of a personnel information system together with the materials and information flow. Static system model exhibit one pair of relationships such as cost quantity and activity time
Is it possible for Jupiter's moon IO to have habitability?
No. Io is subject to intense volcanic activity and is bombarded by radiation funneled by Jupiter's magnetic field, making it one of the least hospitable worlds in the solar system.
Why are there active volcanoes on Jupiter's moons?
It is because Io is so close to Jupiter. This means "tidal forces" are caused on Io by Jupiter's gravitational field. These forces cause distortions inside Io, leading to volcanic activity. The moon Io is the most "volcanic" place in the solar system.
Where in the Solar System does volcanic activity take place?
Mercury
What caused the surface of other planets and moon in your solar system to have a crater?
Craters can be the result of volcanic activity or from external impact events (bodies from space striking the planet or moon).
What has the author Cynthia A Gardner written?
Cynthia A Gardner has written: 'U.S. Geological Survey's alert notification system for volcanic activity' -- subject(s): Volcanic activity prediction
What planets show evidence of heavy volcanic activity?
Mercury had volcanic activity but it appears to be dormant nowVenus had volcanic activity but it appears to be dormant nowEarth still has active volcanoesMars had volcanic activity but it appears to be dormant nowIo - a moon of Jupiter is the most volcanically active object in our Solar System with over 400 active volcanoes.
What are the three places in the solar system does volcanic activity take place?
io, venus and earth
Does Mars have volcanic craters?
AnswerThere is extensive evidence of past volcanic activity on Mars in the form of extinct volcanoes, the most famous of which is Olympus Mons, the highest known mountain in the Solar System. However, there is no current volcanic activity on Mars and it is apparent that Mars has undergone a cooling process, leading to all volcanic activity ceasing.There is extensive evidence of past volcanic activity on Mars in the form of extinct volcanoes, the most famous of which is Olympus Mons, the highest known mountain in the Solar System. However, there is no current volcanic activity on Mars and it is apparent that Mars has undergone a cooling process, leading to all volcanic activity ceasing. Yes there are volcanos on mars
Why are some rocks younger then the formation of the solar system?
Some rocks are younger then the formation of the solar system because of changes caused by volcanic activity
What type of activity has been seen on Io?
Io is the most geologically active object in the Solar System, it has over 400 active volcanoes. So, the answer would be volcanic activity.
What if the moon blows up are we going todie?
There is no physically possible way the moon could blow up. In fact, the moon is one of the most geologically "dead" bodies in our solar system. It's volcanic activity is long since over. It occasionally has "moonquakes", but they are mild.
What three bodies in the solar system exhibits volcanic activity?
Earth and Jupiter's moon Io are known to be volcanically active.Venus, maybe volcanically active, but no positive observations have been made.Cryovolcanism [See related link] can also be found on Triton, Titan, Europa, Enceladus and Dione.

What government institution handles the volcanic activities in the country also give the meaning of its acronym?
Countries around the world have different institutions for overseeing and classifying volcanic activity; in the United States, it is the USGS, or United States Geological Survey. They created the warning system for volcanic activity used today. In the Philippines, for example, it is PHILVOLCS, or Philippine Institute for Volcanology and Seismology.
