What else can I help you with?
What is occurrences?
Occurrences are happenings or events that happen. An occurrence can be defined as an incident or an event that happens in a person's life or along a time line in a history.
How volcanoes form in the central valley of a divergent boundary?
Earthquakes occur along the faults, and volcanoes form where the magma reaches the surface. And from there it forms valleys.
Is kilauea located on a plate boundary?
No. Kilauea, along with the rest of the Hawaiian volcanoes, is located on a hot spot.
Where in the us are most volcanoes located?
Most of the volcanoes in the United States are locate on the west cost. They run along the boundary of the pacific and north American plates.
Volcanoes that form along a mid-ocean ridge occur a diverging plate boundary?
Volcanoes that form along a mid-ocean ridge are called volcanic islands. These volcanoes occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill.
Explain how volcanoes form in the central rift valley of a divergent boundary?
Earthquakes occur along the faults, and volcanoes form when magma reaches the surface, and then the valleys form from erosion.
What geologic formations would probably be found along the boundary where two tectonic plates meet?
Faultlines, Volcanoes, or Sinkholes
Why aren't there volcanoes in haiti?
Haiti is located along a transform plate boundary. Such boundaries do not have any mechanism for producing magma.
What is the difference between hotspot volcanoes and volcanoes formed at plate boundaries?
Hotspot volcanoes form over a fixed hotspot in the mantle, resulting in a chain of volcanoes as the tectonic plate moves over it, like the Hawaiian Islands. Volcanoes at plate boundaries are formed by the interaction of tectonic plates, where one plate is forced under another (subduction) or plates move apart (divergence), creating volcanic activity along the boundary, like the Ring of Fire.
Are volcanoes more common along a convergent or divergent boundary?
Volcanoes are more common along convergent boundaries where two tectonic plates collide, causing subduction and the melting of rock. Divergent boundaries also have volcanoes, but they are typically less explosive and occur as a result of magma rising to fill the gap created by the moving plates.
What can a line of volcanoes along a plate boundary tell you?
A line of volcanoes along a plate boundary indicates that the area is geologically active, typically due to tectonic processes such as subduction, rifting, or transform movement. This formation suggests that magma is generated from melting crust or mantle materials, which is often associated with specific types of plate interactions. The presence of volcanoes can provide insights into the nature of the boundary, whether it is convergent, divergent, or transform, and can help predict future volcanic activity in the region.
Does Singapore have volcanoes?
No. Singapore is located inside the plate and not near, and since volcanoes are usually found on the sides of the plate, there isn't. EDIT by Aeii (for better vocab and such) Singapore isn't near a plate boundary, where all the magma and crap come out of, so yeah, there's no volcanoes, cos' you need the "crap" to make volcanoes.^_^
