How many dead and active volcanoes are there in the Philippines?
There are 22 active volcanoes in the Philippines.
What is a name for a semi arid area prone to wind erosion?
A "wind-eroded landscape" or "wind-eroded region" is a suitable term for a semi-arid area that is prone to wind erosion.
Which type of land suffers most from wind erosion?
Dry and sandy soils are most prone to wind erosion as there is less vegetation to hold the soil in place. Additionally, lands that have been overgrazed or deforested are also vulnerable to wind erosion.
Are a dormant volcanoes still dangerous?
Yes. Even without an eruption a dormant volcano may be prone to earthquakes, landslides, and gas emissions.
What type of volcano wears away the easiest?
Cinder cone volcanoes typically wear away the easiest due to their small size and composition of loose volcanic fragments and ash. Their steep slopes are prone to erosion from wind, water, and gravity, causing them to deteriorate relatively quickly compared to other volcano types.
How many dead and active volcanoes are there in the Philippines?
There are 22 active volcanoes in the Philippines.
Why do California have volcanoes?

Which country has 400 islands and is prone to volcanoes and earthquakes?

Which soil horizons are most prone to erosion?

Why are volcanoes and earthquakes found together?
The majority of earth's volcanoes and earthquakes occur near the boundaries of tectonic plates. Therefore, an area that has volcanoes is likely to be prone to earthquake as well.
How can human's prevent erosion?
Humans cannot prevent erosion, because erosion is a natural process that occurs everywhere, from the untouched wilderness to the cities. Humans can reduce the instance of certain areas prone to erosion, like land clearing for houses and production of farmland, but they can never prevent erosion.
What are the problems of soft rock?
They are prone to virtually any form of erosion, weathering and mass movement/wasting.
What is the difference of earth volcanoes to other planets volcanoes?
Most volcanoes on Earth are associated with boundaries of tectonic plates while those that we have seen on other planets are probably from hot spots. Earth's volcanoes also seem more prone to explosive eruptions, primarily due to the abundance of water on Earth.
Along what european sea are countries especially prone to?
baltic sea
What are the earthquake prone areas of the world?
The earthquake prone areas are those on or near fault lines or subduction zones, and those near active volcanoes. Most of the rim of the Pacific Ocean is one such area.
How does a cape form?
A cape is a pointed piece of land that sticks out into a sea, ocean, lake, or river. A cape usually represents a marked change in trend of the coastline. Their proximity to the coastline makes them prone to natural forms of erosion, mainly tidal actions. Capes can be formed by glaciers, volcanoes, and changes in sea level.
