Will volcanic activity be changed due to a asteroid?

A significant impact to the planet from a large enough asteroid could cause volcanic eruptions.


What will you do during volcanic eruptions?

run away if you are fast enough except if you want to get chocked to death by ashes of course


How volcanic eruption is predicted?

People use shovels and dig under the ground until they get deep enough to feel the heat. If it is at a certain temperature then they know that soon enough that volcano will erupt. depends on the temperature.


Can volcanic eruptions create a delta?

Yes, volcanic eruptions can create a delta, although it's less common than river or sedimentary deltas. When a volcano erupts, it can deposit ash and lava flows into a body of water, which can accumulate over time. If these materials build up enough and create land that extends into the water, a delta can form. Additionally, volcanic islands can develop deltas at their shores through the accumulation of sediment and volcanic debris.


How did volcanic eruptions and comets change early earth?

Volcanic eruptions and comets both contributed to bringing water and other gases to Earth's surface creating the atmosphere. Volcanic products created nutrient rich soils for plants to grow and if the comets were large enough, they could create large enough indentations for lakes and oceans to form.


When a volcano erupts can it block the sun?

Yes. Large explosive volcanic eruptions can produce enormouys ash clouds that can turn day as dark as night in areas around the volcano. Ash and gas from such eruptions can filter out enough sunlight to reuduce global temperatures.


Did volcanic eruptions cause craters on the Moon?

Some were probably volcanic but the craters large enough to be seen with smaller telescopes were almost all made by impacts.


What tree is flung out from volcanos?

The tree commonly associated with being flung out from volcanoes is the pumice tree. Pumice is a type of volcanic rock that is light enough to float on water and can be ejected during volcanic eruptions. This can create the appearance of trees being flung out from the volcano.


How do volcanoes change the land destructively?

A volvano can blow hundreds of thousand of tons of volcanic ash into the air- enough to bury a city. Add in spewing out hot, melted rock (that is lava, that is about to set fire to the house in the picture)


When do volcanic eruptions occur?

volcanic eruptions occur when the tectonic plates are convergent which is when one plate goes under another plate and the magma gets hot orwhen the plates are divergent that's when the plate pulls apart and magma fills the hole.


How do you predict a volcanic eruption using GPS?

You don't. Prediction of volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and other geological phenomena cannot be made. Guesses might be made from measurement of land movement with GPS, small tremors with seismographs, and heat flow with IR scanners, but they aren't accurate enough to call them predictions.


Is there any volcanic eruptions observed on Saturn?

When we look at Saturn from Earth we see mostly clouds of ammonia. We cannot see deep enough into them to see any liquid or solid parts so no, we have not seen any eruptions on Saturn. However we have seen some on Saturn's moons because they don't have such huge dense clouds themselves.
