about 100 threw 1200 people can be killed from volcanic eruptions
A number of reasons. There are far fewer major volcanic eruptions than there are earthquakes. Earthquakes have no warning. Most volcanos give warning signs before a major eruption. Earthquakes affect far larger areas, and those areas are more likely to have people living in them. Unless you are near a volcano, *and* in the path of a pyroclastic flow, a blast, or are two stupid to get out of the way of a lava flow, they are unlikely to kill you.
Texas has the highest number of tornadoes of any state.
The lowest number on the Ritcher scale is a 1.0. A 1.0 is generally not felt at all. The highest number is a 10 on the Ritcher scale.
The fat sample with the highest iodine number would be the one with the highest degree of unsaturation, meaning it contains more double bonds. Unsaturated fats are more reactive with iodine, resulting in a higher iodine number.
The highest number of tornadoes recorded in one year in the United States is 1,817, which occurred in 2004. This was due to multiple weather events throughout the year that produced numerous tornadoes across various states.
Volcanoes have killed more people by far. A number of volcanic eruptions, such as the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa, have had had tolls in the tens of thousands, while only 1 tornado is known to have killed over 1000 people.
For the 21st century, that would be Mount Merapi in Indonesia in 2010 so far.
A number of volcanologists were killed in the 1991 eruption. The most famous were Harry Glicken and Katia and Maurice Krafft.
Okmok volcano in Alaska violently erupted in 1817. Thousands of people were said to have been killed, but there is no record of the exact number.
Well, honey, the eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia back in 1815 takes the cake for the largest number of casualties. It caused a whopping estimated death toll of around 71,000 people. So, if you're looking for a volcanic eruption that really made a splash in the casualty department, that's the one to remember.
In the 1815 eruption it killed 92,000 people and 229,000 animals.
Haven't got a CLUE! :D
They bring about minerals, can form new land, and in the long term can fertilize soil.
There have been a number of cases. Pyroclastic flows killed people in Herculaneum in the 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius, in Ketimbang and on the Island of Sebesi in the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa, in St Pierre in the 1902 eruption of Mount Pelee, in the state of Washington in the 1980 eruption of Mount St Helens, and in Japan during the 1991 eruption of Mount Unzen.
Before a volcanic eruption, there is often an increase in the number and intensity of small earthquakes, a phenomenon known as volcanic seismicity. This occurs as magma rises towards the surface, causing pressure to build up and fractures to form in the surrounding rock. The increased seismic activity can serve as a warning sign of an impending eruption, indicating that the volcano is becoming more active. Monitoring these earthquakes helps volcanologists assess the likelihood and timing of an eruption.
Your question is incomplete, therefore the answer has to be guessed. If you are asking how many people escaped the eruption, not many did because the eruption was sudden and caught people by surprise. The number of deaths is also uncertain. It has been estimated that the population of Pompeii was about 8,000 to 12,000.
The exact number of people who died due to the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD in Italy is not known, but it is believed to be in the range of 1,500 to 2,000. These people were killed by the volcanic ash, gases, and pyroclastic flows.
