* pollution * green house gases * littering * wild fires * tsunamis * earth quakes * tornados * waste products * volcanoes * meteorites
How do hawaiian islands form on the tops volcanoes?
The quakes directly associated with the movement of magma are concentrated beneath the island's active volcanoes, Kilauea and Mauna Loa. Very shallow quakes frequently precede or accompany an eruption. Hundreds of such quakes make up swarms that commonly occur over a period of several hours or days before an eruption as magma forces its way into a new area. These quakes are seldom large enough to cause widespread damage, but they may produce extensive ground fracturing close to the potential eruption site. Once an eruption begins, the quakes usually diminish.
How are mars quakes different than earthquakes?
Marsquakes are different from earthquakes because they occur on Mars, not on Earth. They are usually caused by stresses in the Martian crust due to cooling and contraction of the planet. The lack of tectonic plates on Mars also plays a role in the type and frequency of quakes compared to earthquakes on Earth.
If Mars had earthquakes, would they be marsquakes?
yes im doing a project on sun quakes, moon quakes, and mars quakes
How often does a tsuami happen each year?
Tsunamis are actually fairly rare; there have only been two big ones this century so far, and a half-dozen smaller ones. We have had very bad luck so far this century; first Indonesia, and now Japan, both monster quakes and enormous tsunamis. Tsunamis aren't directly caused by earthquakes; they are caused by underwater landslides or upthrusts - which are often caused by earthquakes. So there is almost always an earthquake associated with any tsunami. If there isn't any underwater earth movement, there won't be a tsunami.
Do volcanoes cause earth quakes?
Sometimes they do.
Does Jupiter have any quakes volcanoes?
nope. but one of its moons does.
What is bad about Italy?
you get loads of volcanoes, earth quakes and floods
Are there any quakes or volcanoes on Neptune's surface?
No. Neptune is a gas giant. This means it is made of gas, therefore does not have a solid surface. Without a solid surface, it is impossible for plate activity such as quakes and volcanoes to occur.
If Mars had earthquakes would they be called marsquakes?
yes im doing a project on sun quakes, moon quakes, and mars quakes
Why do earthquakes and volcanoes occur along the ring of fire?
This is where the fault lines of the North American and Pacific plate meet, an areas where there is lots of earthquakes, tsunamis (caused by quakes) and volcanoes. Underneath these cracks in the Earth is magma (lava inside the earth), every once in a while, this magma will come to the surface and form volcanoes. and that is basically itUser:Hectoria29
What device do astronauts use to study extremely weak moon quakes?
they use very strong technolygy no one knows for sure wut it is called
What two natural disasters come from plate tectonic movements?
Earth quakes and tsunami (also volcanoes)
How do earth effect the earth?
There are plate tectonics in earth and when they move, earth quakes happens. Sometimes the plate tectonics can move a continent. This is called the continental drift. Earth quakes can make volcanoes explode, tsunamis happen, and continents break. For example: The continent Pangaea. Because of the plate tectonics that caused earthquakes, tsunamis, and continents braking apart, the Pangaea broke up in to more continents and the continents broke into even more. That is why there are 7 continents in the world now. Earth quakes don't cause all these. Plate tectonics does. Plate tectonics makes earth quakes. Then, other horrible stuff happens.
What are the negative effects of earth quakes?
buildings were damaged , peoples were trapped under the buildings , wealth of the country were lost and so many disadvantages were caused due to earth quakes
Are there earthquakes in Iceland?
Of course! Though in Iceland, they're called Ice quakes, not earth quakes. Kind of like how there are moonquakes on the moon.
What consequences does the tectonic plates have?
The tectonic plates are constantly moving around and if (or even when) they hit each other they cause earth quakes and even volcanoes.
