How are collapse earthquakes formed?
Collapse earthquakes are formed when material within a geological structure collapses into underground spaces such as caves, mines, or tunnels. This sudden collapse can create seismic waves that are often localized but can be strong enough to register on seismic sensors. The collapse can be triggered by various factors, including human activities such as mining or natural processes such as erosion.
Are CAVES constructive destructive?
Caves are generally considered constructional landforms, as they are formed through erosional processes such as chemical weathering, solution erosion, and mechanical weathering of rock. These processes gradually create cavities within the rock, leading to the formation of caves.
Why are some caves dry and dusty?
Caves can be dry and dusty if there is minimal water entering from the surface to create moisture. Dust in caves can accumulate over time from external sources like windblown sediment or deterioration of local rock formations within the cave. Lack of adequate ventilation can also contribute to dust build-up in caves.
Where is the precipitate calcite commonly found to create interesting formation in the ground?

How do volcanology siesmologa retated to each other?
Erupting volcanoes often create earthquakes before, during and after activity. Strong earthquakes are capable of 're-starting' volcanic eruptions.
How is cave used?
caves are created by earthquakes +++ Rather tenuous that link! Most caves are in limestone, and the necessary joints and faults in the rockfor ground-water to penetrateto initiate cave development, result from tectonic processes that would have also given rise to earthquakes, but the normal answer would be karst processes acting on a limestone upland offering suitable conditions for them to act. Earthquakes themselves don't create caves other than perhaps by causing fractured rock masses to fall from a steep slope and maybe causetalus caves or mass-movement fissures behind the slumped rock.
Are caves safe during earthquakes, or are there specific risks associated with seeking shelter in caves during seismic activity?
Caves can be risky during earthquakes due to the potential for rockfalls, collapses, and other hazards. It is important to consider the stability of the cave and surrounding area before seeking shelter there during seismic activity.

Which plate boundaries and movements most commonly create earthquakes?
Transform plate boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally, commonly create earthquakes. These earthquakes are caused by the release of stress built up from the plates' movement. Subduction zones, where one plate is forced beneath another, also produce frequent and powerful earthquakes due to the intense pressure and friction between the plates.
