What boundary is it when a volcano formed?
Volcanoes can form at convergent boundaries, divergent boundaries, and at hot spots away from any plate boundary.
Do volcanoes occur at hot spots?
No. Hot spots and subduction zones are two separate geogolgic settings in which volcanoes can form. Some hot spots may develop as a result of activity in a subduction zone, and continue activity after subduction has ended or move away.
Do all volcanoes have hot spots?
No. While volcanoes can erupt very hot material, a volcano that is not actively erupting may not be any warmer than an ordinary mountain. Even on an active volcano, temperatures away from the vent may be normal.
Are there any great spots on Mercury?
yes two very hot spots
What tectonic plate movement causes volcanoes to form?
Volcanoes form where plates are moving away from each other and new crust is being formed. That is the traditional answer although research has recently been published that shows there are 'hot spots' places where magma will plume in the middle of a tectonic plate, these hot spots also create volcanoes. An example of this type of hot spot volcano would be the active volcano in the Hawaii Island chain or the volcano under Yellowstone.
What boundary is it when a volcano formed?
Volcanoes can form at convergent boundaries, divergent boundaries, and at hot spots away from any plate boundary.
What is an example of a hot-spot volcano?
The Hawaiian islands, Iceland, and Yellowstone are three examples of hot spots.
Why there is no volcano in North Carolina?
North Carolina has no plate bounderies or hot spots.
Hotspot volcano in a sentence?
Hot spot volcano is one of the most popular tourist spots to be seen by many people.
Do volcanoes occur at hot spots?
No. Hot spots and subduction zones are two separate geogolgic settings in which volcanoes can form. Some hot spots may develop as a result of activity in a subduction zone, and continue activity after subduction has ended or move away.
What is a fault of a volcano?
A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.
What type of fault is a volcano?
A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.
What is the last thing that happens in the life of volcano?
It goes over many hot spots and it no longer erupts
How is a cinder cone volcano different from a hot spot volcano?
A hot spot volcano is a volcano is one that forms as a result of an extra hot area of the mantle just beneath the crust. Such volcanoes are often far from plate boundaries. A cinder cone volcano is a relatively small volcano with steep slopes made of cinders. The two are not mutually exclusive: some cinder cone volcanoes are associated with hot spots.
Do all volcanoes have hot spots?
No. While volcanoes can erupt very hot material, a volcano that is not actively erupting may not be any warmer than an ordinary mountain. Even on an active volcano, temperatures away from the vent may be normal.
Are there any great spots on Mercury?
yes two very hot spots
Is a volcano a convergent boundary?
No. A volcano is not a plate boundary. Most volcanoes on land are associated with convergent boundaries, but many are associated with divergent boundaries and others with hot spots.
