Subduction zones are where lighter (less dense) stuff get pushed below heavier stuff.
They are more likely to occur on places/countries that are on Tectonic plate boundaries. This is because a tectonic plate boundary is when earth is raised above the normal level causing the ground to shake. When the earth rises it can form small volcanoes that get bigger and it will erupt a lot after then. :D
The volcanoes that erupt both ways are located on or near boundaries between oceanic and continental crust over subduction zones.
Earthquakes, volcanoes to erupt, mountains, etc...
No. Where volcanoes appear is not affected by climate. There are volcanoes in places such as Iceland, Alaska, and Antarctica.
Active volcanoes and dormant volcanoes both have a likely chance to erupt and have erupted in the past.
Volcanic eruptions occur only in certain places and do not occur randomly. ... Volcanoes occur most frequently at plate boundaries
yes sometimes
Yes, all volcanoes erupt because the magma underneath or in the volcano is under pressure, which forces the magma to the surface, where there is less pressure. However, volcanoes form in different places.
There is a region in the Pacific Ocean called the Ring of Fire, and it is home to many of the world's earthquakes and volcanoes. It has 452 volcanoes and it is home to 75% of the world's dormant and active volcanoes. Besides that, many islands and island nations have volcanoes, such as Hawaii and Japan. Also, 80-90% of all volcanoes occur near tectonic plate boundaries that spread apart.
Volcanoes often erupt at boundaries because this is where tectonic plates interact, causing intense heat and pressure to build up beneath the Earth's surface. This leads to the melting of rock and the formation of magma, which can eventually erupt as lava and volcanic ash through the volcano's vent.
Active volcanoes are likely to erupt at any time where as inactive volcanoes are 'asleep' or haven't erupted much in the past and are unlikely to erupt in the near future.
No. Volcanoes erupt.
