No. Volcanic eruptions can build mountains and form new land. Many occur in remote areas where there is not much to destroy.
The Himalayas are primarily formed through the collision of the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates, which generates significant tectonic stress and leads to frequent earthquakes. However, volcanic activity is limited in this region because there are no significant subduction zones where one tectonic plate is forced under another, a common cause of volcanic eruptions. Instead, the Himalayas are characterized by uplift and mountain-building processes rather than magma generation from subducted material. Thus, while tectonic activity is high, the conditions for volcanic eruptions are not present.
No. Tsunamis can also occur as a result of landslides, volcanic eruptions, meteor impacts, and underwater explosions.
Earthquakes are one (but not the only) cause of tsunamis.
Volcanoes and earthquakes happen when there are tectonic plates below them. The tectonic plates gradually move and might slip after a while. That is when you get an earthquake. A volcano happens when the tectonic plates rub and they get pushed up or down. Malten rock then finds its way through gaps and creates a volcano.
no it isn't safe to drive.gas is highly flameable,and a gas leak will only lead to self destruction.
The most violent volcanic eruptions are found in destructive/convergent plate boundaries. 80% of the world's active volcanoes are found occur along destructive boundaries. Acid-lava and composite volcanoes also cause the most violent eruptions as the lava is viscous and the opening of the volcano is sometimes blocked by hardened lava, causing a huge massive explosion during the eruption.
No. Eruptions are caused by magma moving up from the mantle. Earthquakes can be a sign of magma pushing the earth out of its way (causing the earthquake) which lead to the eruptions and potentially tsunamis.
Only the most violent volcanic eruptions feature a pyroclastic flow.
False. Volcanic eruptions can cause damage beyond the crater's rim. Lava flows, pyroclastic flows, ashfall, volcanic gases, and lahars (volcanic mudflows) can all pose hazards and cause damage far beyond the immediate vicinity of the volcano. The extent of damage depends on the size and intensity of the eruption, as well as topography and prevailing wind patterns.

Earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions are common natural disasters that occur along a subduction zone. The tectonic activity at subduction zones, where one tectonic plate is forced under another, can lead to these types of events, which pose significant risks to nearby coastal communities.
Diamonds form at such depths and pressures that they only reach the surface through explosive kimberlite volcanic eruptions which could spread them over a fairly wide region. Kimberlite volcanic eruptions are not known for their mountain building capabilities.
This statement is incorrect. Plinian and Pelean eruptions are types of explosive volcanic eruptions that do not typically produce lava flows. Instead, they involve the violent ejection of ash, rock fragments, and gases into the atmosphere. Lava flows are more commonly associated with effusive eruptions, such as those of Hawaiian volcanoes.
No. Only some are. Blizzard, hurricanes and tornadoes are storms, but earthquakes, floods, and volcanic eruptions are not.
`hello this is thabo chipunza and my awnser is i'm not telling you!just kidding!take a joke but the awnser is i don't knowthank you for your time
Pelean volcanic eruptions feature pyroclastic flows, which are fast-moving currents of hot gas, ash, and volcanic rock fragments. Plinian eruptions also produce pyroclastic flows, but they are characterized by massive vertical columns of ash and gas rising high into the atmosphere.
