What else can I help you with?
Does Saturn have volcanoes or rings?
saturn has rings they dont have volcanoes
Does Montana have volcanoes?
There are no active volcanoes in Montana. You have to go further west to the Cascade Range to find volcanoes. The volcanoes in the Cascades are caused by the subduction of the oceanic crust under the continental crust.
How many standard time zones are there?
40 time zones in the world.
What land form stopped the Persian empire from spreading north?
The Aegean Sea (supplemented by the resistance of the southern city-states of mainland Greece to Persian takeover).
What are natural and built in features of Japan?
Japan has interesting natural features, including volcanoes, hot springs, mountains, rivers, and thousands of miles of shoreline. There are a range of climate zones from subtropical to temperate. Built-in features of Japan include cities, temples, a massive rail system and many ports.
Is Shield volcanoes found along subduction zones?
Cone volcanoes which are likely to erupt explosively are found at subduction zones. Spreading zones (constructive plate boundaries) and hot spots produce quieter volcanoes because their lava is thinner. The ones at hot spots are shield volcanoes.
Are shield volcanoes hot spots?
Shield volcanoes are not hot spots but they are associated with them. However, such volcanoes can also form at rift zones.
How do volcano's form over spreading plates and subduction zones?
they dont affect it
What do volcanic belts form along on?
Both subduction zones and spreading centers.
Where are the most explosive volcanoes subduction zones or rift zones?
Explosive volcanoes are most common at subduction zones.
How are volcanoes distributed in the map are they scattered evenly or concentrated in zones?
Volcanoes are in concentrated zones.
Do composite volcanoes form at subduction?
Usually, yes. Occasionally, though they can form in rift zones or at continental hotspots.
How are volcanoes on spreading ridges and rift zones different from those above descending edges of ocean plates?
Volcanoes on spreading ridges and rift zones are typically shield volcanoes with relatively low viscosity magma that erupts non-explosively. In contrast, volcanoes above descending edges of ocean plates are typically stratovolcanoes with higher viscosity magma that erupts explosively due to trapped gases. The latter are also associated with subduction zones where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another.
What can form above subduction zones?
I think it would be shield volcanoes because it was it!
Are volcanoes and earthquakes located in the middle of continents?
Volcanoes and earthquakes are typically located along the edges of tectonic plates, where the Earth's crust is more active. These areas include plate boundaries such as subduction zones, transform faults, and spreading centers. While it is less common, volcanic activity can also occur within continents, often associated with hotspots or rift zones.
How volcanoes distributed?
Volcanoes are distributed in concentrated zones.
Are volcanoes scattered randomly or concentrated in zones?
Volcanoes are formed by tetonic plates pushing together. Therefore they often form in lines. Such as the Himalyers and the alpes.
