Property values tend to drop if a volcano erupts nearby. Not very many people want to live near a volcano.
according to my research the canyons will have to have lava deposited by nearby volcanoes.
While earthquakes and volcanoes sometimes go together, a volcano is not formed by an earthquake. It would be more correct to say that the volcano caused the earthquake. One of the signs of an impending volcanic eruption is a series of earthquakes, because the movement of the magma underground often shakes the ground nearby.
Yes. Edinburgh Castle is built on an extinct volcano and the nearby Arthur's Seat is the same.
No, not necessarily. While hot springs can be associated with volcanoes, many simply result from the deep penetration of groundwater. Deep in the earth's crust it is very hot even if there are no volcanoes nearby.
Boiling molten lava (melted rocks) are deposited into the oceans and cool, forming land The lava is cooled in the water which slowly stacks up until it reaches the surface. The newly formed ground is highly fertile and grow plants quickly.
Certainly. Volcanoes are beautiful natural phenomenons, but they are also dangerous. However, I think that as long as you don't live nearby, you should be relatively safe in bed knowing a volcano is not going to explode five miles away.
YES!
Because there aren't any volcanos nearby and if there is baisicly a hole in the ground then how it probably would fill up the cracks before an volcano were to form.
A volcano eruption is one of the most impressive events in the planet and the effects of volcanoes and their eruptions could be felt as far away as a different continent. The type of effects of volcanoes depends on the size of the eruption. Some volcanoes could be erupting and not cause much damage even to people nearby while others are so massive that should they erupt they could trigger a world sized catastrophe. So what type of disturbances would you see if there were a massive eruption today? To answer that question we need to be clear about the type of volcano that we are talking about. Volcano eruptions are measured in what is called VEI or Volcano Eruption Index which goes to a most powerful eruption of a VEI8.
Yes. The magma type is very viscous and taffy-like, so it traps gasses much better. When magma is loaded with pressurized gas bubbles it can explode if it exits the volcano. This is a major hazard to the city of Tacoma nearby. If the rainier erupts, the heat from the blast will melt ice caps on the summit causing deadly mudflows that will devastate the area in perhaps a 30-50 mile radius.
The volcano is actually Karaca . Al Asad is the nearby lake.
