When the Earth's surface cools, it can lead to a variety of geological and climatic changes. For instance, it may result in the formation of ice sheets and glaciers, impacting sea levels and global weather patterns. Additionally, cooler temperatures can affect ecosystems, altering habitats and species distribution. Prolonged cooling periods can also contribute to events like ice ages, significantly shaping the planet's landscape and biodiversity.
Igneous rock, such as basalt or rhyolite, is formed when magma cools at the Earth's surface.
Lava cools down and accumulates into rock as it reaches Earth's surface
It cools and solidifies into a sedimentary rock.
Igneous
The rock that cools below the Earth's surface is called "intrusive igneous rock." This type of rock forms when magma cools and solidifies slowly beneath the Earth's crust, allowing for the development of larger crystals. Common examples of intrusive igneous rocks include granite and diorite. In contrast, extrusive igneous rocks form from lava that cools quickly on the Earth's surface.
It forms new islands
It cools and forms new land.
It releases magma and starts melting/burning the earth until it cools down.

no sometimes it cools under earth's surface. that is called intrusive igneous rocks. when it reaches earth's surface and cools its called extrusive igneous rocks.
When Earth cools, most of the energy is transferred from Earth's surface to space through radiation. This process involves the emission of infrared radiation from the Earth's surface that travels through the atmosphere and into space.
It cools and solidifies into a sedimentary rock.
it forms igneous rocks
When magma cools at the surface of the Earth, it cools very quickly and hardens on the Earths crust. However, it continues flowing underneath, forming interesting textures.
