Who are the professionals who deal earthquakes or volcanoes?
well, two main ones, seismologists and vulcanologists in order.
Can people go up a dormant volcano?
Yes. Dormant volcanoes such as Mount Rainier and Mount Kilimanjaro are popular climbing destinations. Vulcanologists will sometimes climb active volcanoes to study them.
Do seismologists also study volcanoes?
They do occasionally, and they sometimes help vulcanologists. This is because volcanoes generate earthquakes, and analyzing patterns in these earthquakes can help to tell if a volcano is likely to erupt soon.
What environment does a vulcanologist work in?
Vulcanologists or volcanologists study volcanic activity. The environments that people working in this profession may work at include laboratories, volcanoes, geysers, hot springs, undersea trenches, and sulfur mines.
What do you call a person that studies volcanoes?
A person who studies volcanoes is called a volcanologist. They specialize in the study of volcanic activity, including the causes, behavior, and impacts of volcanic eruptions.
Can a volcano that has stopped erupting ever erupt again?
This requires a judgment call by the vulcanologists. Some volcanoes are truly extinct, and will likely never erupt again - Crater Lake in Oregon is a good example. Some volcanoes are dormant, and quiet for the time being. They may never erupt again, or may someday down the road come roaring back to life. I believe Mt. Fuji in Japan is currently dormant, but I might be wrong on that one. Some volcanoes, even if currently quiet, are considered active, and are monitored constantly, such as Mount St. Helens, Vesuvius and Mt. Etna. Telling which is which is the life's work of vulcanologists.
