What season volcanoes erupt?

Answer 1

Seasons are to do with weather and climate. A volcano may erupt anytime not in summer or winter, that is irrelevant.

Volcanoes do not erupt in a season, the reason they erupt is due to the build up of magma in the Earth's crust below the place they erupt.

Some volcanoes are:

extinct, nothing happening for a very long time

dormant, they have not erupted for a long time but might become active in 500-1000 years

active, they 'dribble or spew' all the time

new ones which erupt sometimes after other thermal activity becomes apparent sometimes unexpectedly but usually in an area where there are other volcanoes or thermal activity.

An example is the Volcanic Plateau in New Zealand which is part of the Pacific Rim of Fire where many extinct, dormant and active volcanoes are situated.

Answer 2

Volcanoes erupt when a shift in the planet's tectonic plates forces the magma upwards and through the surface of the planet. Just like with earthquakes, there is no particular season when this happens. It could be at any time throughout the year.

Answer 3

There is no link between the time of year and volcanic eruptions. Volcanoes may erupt at any time of year.

Answer 4

There is no specific time of year for a volcano to erupt. When the pressure of the magma get too much, a volcano will erupt.

Answer 5

Volcanic activity isn't dependent on the time of year. They can erupt when geologic conditions force them to - regardless of the day or date.

Answer 6

There is no volcano season. Volcanoes are not related to weather and eruptions occur at the same rate at any time of year.

Answer 7

any season, winter wont affect it cause it`s a hot liqid not fire.

Answer 8

Answer 9
