Volcanoes shape the Earth's surface by depositing layers of lava, ash, and other volcanic materials, creating new landforms like mountains, islands, and volcanic craters. Volcanic activity also releases gases and minerals that can alter soil fertility and affect local ecosystems. Over time, repeated volcanic eruptions can further modify the landscape and contribute to the Earth's geological diversity.
What else can I help you with?
Do volcanoes prevent global warming?
Dust and ash from volcanic eruptions can darken the sky for weeks at a time. This prevents sunlight warming the earth. However, this is usually only temporary and will not prevent global warming.
What is an opening in the earth's crust through which volcanic materials pass to the earth's surface?
An opening in the Earth's crust through which volcanic materials pass to the surface is called a volcano. Volcanoes can manifest in different forms, such as shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes, and cinder cone volcanoes, depending on the type of eruption and the materials involved. Volcanic activity can range from gentle lava flows to explosive eruptions, influenced by factors like magma composition and gas content.
Where do Volcaneos happen?
Volcanoes are found at the boundary areas of specific tectonic plates. These areas are in Hawaii, New Zealand, Australia, and Indonesia.
The theory that Earth's continents move over time is called a?
The theory that Earth's continents move over time is called plate tectonics. This theory explains the movement of Earth's lithosphere and the formation of features like mountains, earthquakes, and volcanoes.
Does the greenhouse effect occur on the moon or the earth?
The greenhouse effect comes about when greenhouse gases in the atmosphere capture heat rising from the surface of the planet. As the moon has no atmosphere, it could not have a greenhouse effect. So the answer is: The earth.
How could volcanoes effect global warming?
The gas from the volcanoes are like carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, which are greenhouse gases. They thicken the atmosphere and trap sunlight which heats up the earth
How do they name volcanoes?
i think they name them by what their explosions look like or how the volcano looks like
What does composite volcanoes look like?
a cinder cone volcanoe looks like a ant hill
Is a globe what earth looks like from space?
yes, form space the earth looks like a globe.
How have volcanoes affected the earth's atmosphere?
The ash from volcanoes has a big effect on both the air and land. Not only do volcanoes spew out ashes, volcanoes let out gases which can be very harmful. The gases that are let out, are the same as some of the ones we produce,like carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and sulfur oxide. Thanks (14 yrs old)
How the earth looks like?
roundddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd !
How many eruptions have been recorded in Hawaii?

How does earth looks like from moon?
It looks like a blue and green sphere, but you can see all of the clouds floating above the Earth.
Do earthquakes explode like volcanoes?
No, earthquakes and volcanoes are different geological events. Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface, while volcanoes erupt due to magma or gas buildup beneath the Earth's crust. While both can cause destruction, earthquakes do not explode like volcanoes.
How do tower hill volcano look like?
It looks like a group of scoria volcanoes that are in a circle and a maar crater in the center
How does the earth looks like when it's winter?
it looks the same no deference
What Earth like feature was discovered on the surface on Venus?
Volcanoes. Your Welcome. Kiara
