What will happen if Mt Rainier erupts?
Even a relatively small eruption at Mount Rainier could melt the snow and ice at the volcano's summit. This could mix with volcanic ash as well as sediment around the volcano, forming mudflows called lahars. These could potentially devastate nearby towns and even the city of Tacoma. The mud could then clog river channels, causing the rivers to back up and flood portions of Seattle.
What kind of eruptions would you expect from cascade volcanoes?
If the eruption was anything like the eruption of Mount Meager in 2350 BP, you would expect it to send an ash column high into the Stratosphere. This activity could produce a diverse sequence of volcanic deposit. A thick amount of welded vitrophyric breccia may appear on the explosive collapse of a possible appearance of a lava dome, admiting ash several meters in thickness near the vent area. But that is only if the eruption is anything like the Mount Meager eruption mentioned before.
Why might a major volcanic eruption lead to cooler temperatures over a large area around volcano?
Because when the volcano erupts it lets all the hot volcanic acid and lava out of the ground making the earth's surface cooler.
How do scientist know about the eruption on Thera?
Radiometric dating is quite appropriate to the dating of volcanic output. The half life of the K-Ar reaction is about 1.3 billion years. Other chronologies could include Uranium:Lead, Rubidium:Strontium, and so on. It is just a matter of choosing a chronology suited to the expected age of the sample.
What does it mean when one turns over in bed and their heart starts beating rapidly?
You should see a doctor, there are several things that could cause this to happen.
Could a volcanic eruption in japan cause a tsunami?
yes
How bad is a volcanic eruption?
Sometimes a volcanic eruption is not that bad but sometimes it can be very bad. For example, people could die because of it and houses can be destroyed.
Which could be part of the pyroclastic materials of a volcanic eruption?
Fine ash and dust
What is the main hazard from a quiet volcanic eruption?
it could be gas or just few rocks.
What are two things that might happen to warn us that a volcano eruption could occur?
it coluld be the animals, when they escape and leave the area.
Volcanic ash from an eruption is hazardoes because?
could mix with snow and water to cause mudslides
What does the VEI stand for?
The VEI stands for Volcanic Explosivity Index, which is a scale used to measure the explosiveness of volcanic eruptions based on factors like volume of erupted material, height of eruption column, and duration of the eruption.
What was the loudest volcanic eruption ever?
The loudest volcanic eruption in recorded history was the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa in Indonesia. The explosion was so powerful that it was heard up to 3,000 miles away and led to the destruction of the island.
What would happen if a tornado funneled into an erupting volcano?
If a tornado funneled into an erupting volcano, it could potentially intensify the eruption by supplying additional oxygen and heat to the volcanic plume. This could result in stronger and more widespread volcanic activity, posing a greater risk to surrounding areas.
Could houses fall down during a volcanic eruption?
Yes because the magma brings down the house
Could a volcanic eruption end the world?
A volcanic eruption could end the world! If it creates a thick ash cloud covering the atmosphere of earth it would block sunlight it would kill crops which would mean no FOOD! But I'm sure we would survive because science has advanced a lot :D
Is there a danger of tsunamis in Canary islands?
Yes. The Canary Islands are volcanic in origin and I suppose an eruption could generate a tsunami. But tsunamis travel hundreds of miles so one could come from an earthquake or volcanice eruption in the Caribbean.
