∙ 15y agoSurtsey is an island off SW Iceland, it was formed by volcanic eruptions beginning in November of 1963 and ending in June 1967. No further eruptions are expected there. The volcano is a composite form, where lava has covered the existing cinder cone and formed erosion-resistant rock. Although half of the original island is again covered by water, the island and its associated undersea ridges should survive for a long time. Several other islands in the archipelago formed in the same way over the last few centuries.

What plate boundary is volcano barren island located on?
it is on the indo-australian and eurasion plate boundary
Is Yellowstone located at a divergent plate boundary?
Yellowstone is situated within a tectonic plate, not at a plate boundary! Volcanic activity is thought to be as a result of a mantle plume, much like the volcanism that created the Hawaiian Island chain.
Was Mount Tambora formed by a convergent plate boundary or a divergent plate boundary?
It was formed from the volcanism created by a subducting oceanic plate at a convergent plate boundary.
What type of plate boundary created mt tambora?
Mount Tambora is associated with a convergent plate boundary.
