Where are lava domes located?
Near subduction zones
A composite volcano is most likely to form where?
A composite volcano is most likely to form at subduction zones where an oceanic plate is being subducted beneath a continental plate. The interaction between the two plates causes magma to rise, leading to the formation of a composite volcano due to the explosive eruptions caused by the high silica content in the magma.
Why do you usually find valcanoes near subduction zones?
Volcanoes are often found near subduction zones because the descending tectonic plate plunges deep into the Earth's mantle, causing melting due to high temperature and pressure. This molten rock, or magma, then rises to the surface, resulting in volcanic activity.
Can you Show me a diagram of the earth and the three main climate zone?
I'm unable to display images. However, the three main climate zones on Earth are the tropical zone near the equator, the temperate zones in the middle latitudes, and the polar zones near the north and south poles. These zones are determined by the angle of incoming sunlight and the Earth's spherical shape.
Benioff zones are found near?
It is the area of deep earthquake activity that follows the subducting oceanic plate as it grinds its way toward the mantle. The eartquake zones are called Benioff-Wadati zones, after Hugo Benioff, who discovered them in the 1950s
The frigid zones lie near what region?
The north and south frigid zones (also known as the Arctic and the Antarctic) lie near the poles.
Where are the tropical zones temprete zones and polar zones?
The tropical zones are located near the equator, between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. The temperate zones lie between the tropics and the polar circles, around 30 to 60 degrees latitude in both hemispheres. The polar zones are near the North and South Poles, beyond the Arctic and Antarctic Circles.
Why do earthquakes often happen near subducted zones?
Subduction zones are near plate boundaries. As one plate slides beneath the other (subducts) it encounters significant resistance which can build up as unrelieved shear stress until suddenly released by a slip of the subducting plate - resulting in an earthquake.
Are there any earthquake zones near Mount Pelee?
No

Where do near-shore zones get their nutrients and in what form are these nutrients?

What is the difference between the tropical temperature and polar zones?
Tropical zones have warm temperatures year-round, with little variation, while polar zones have cold temperatures year-round, with extreme variations between summer and winter. Tropical zones are typically found near the equator, while polar zones are located near the North and South poles.
The frigid lies near?
The frigid zone lies near the temperate zones which consist of the tepid latitudes.
3 main climatic zones in the world?
The three main climatic zones in the world are tropical, temperate, and polar. Tropical zones are located near the equator and have warm temperatures year-round. Temperate zones have moderate temperatures and distinct seasons, while polar zones are located near the North and South Poles and are characterized by cold temperatures.
Were do near shore zones get their nutrients and in what form are these nutrients?
They come from england
What are the names of the high pressure zones near 30 degree latitude both above and below the equator?
these are the subtropical high pressure zones
