What type of volcanism occurs underwater along the mid-oceanic ridge?
Rift volcanism.
Intraplate volcanism may be associated with what formation?
Intraplate volcanism may be associated with hotspots. These are areas where magma rises from deep within the mantle to the surface of the Earth, independent of tectonic plate boundaries. The Hawaiian Islands are a famous example of intraplate volcanism caused by a hotspot.
What is the primary way that volcanoes and can trigger a mass extinction?
Gasses released by a massive volcanic event can cause catastrophic climate changes. Carbon dioxide will raise global temperatures. while sulfur dioxide will lower temperatures.
What is the relationship between hot spots and volcanism?
Hot spots are regions in the Earth's mantle where plumes of hot material rise, leading to volcanic activity at the surface. Unlike most volcanism, which occurs at tectonic plate boundaries, hot spot volcanism can happen in the middle of tectonic plates. As the tectonic plate moves over the stationary hot spot, a series of volcanoes can form, creating a volcanic chain, such as the Hawaiian Islands. Thus, hot spots are crucial for understanding intraplate volcanism and the formation of certain volcanic features.
Which type of rock is associated with volcanoes?
Igneous rocks are found in areas of volcanism
What triggers the rock cycle?
There really is no trigger; it's a process that involves tectonics and its associated plate subductions, uplift, and volcanism, along with weathering, erosion, and lithification of sediments.
How volcanism causes earthquake?
volcanism can not cause earthquakes
What forces propels slope failure and aids mass wasting?
1. Gravity. 2. Volcanism. 3. Tectonics. 4. Hydraulics.
How do you trigger the spit gland?
chewing gums is a way to trigger it
What factor does not commonly trigger mass movements?
Factors that do not commonly trigger mass movements include gentle rainfall, stable slope conditions, and absence of erosion or human activities.
Does the mantle contain volcanism?
No. Volcanism occurs at the surface on the crust. However, the magma that drives volcanism ultimately comes from the mantle.
One trigger of mass movements is the pores in sediment filling with?
debris
How do you adjust the trigger pull of your western field shotgun?
The only way is to replace the whole trigger but it will still have a hair trigger
What type of volcanism occurs underwater along the mid-oceanic ridge?
Rift volcanism.
Which does not usually trigger mass movement?
Individuals walking does not usually trigger mass movement. Mass movements are typically triggered by natural events such as heavy rainfall, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or human activities like deforestation and construction.
The hawaiian isand and Yellowstone national park are associted with which of the three zones of volcanism?
hot spot volcanism
What is the force behind mass movement what other factors can trigger mass movement?
Gravity is the force behind mass movements like landslides and rockfalls. Other factors that can trigger mass movements include heavy rainfall, earthquakes, volcanic activity, human activities like construction or deforestation, and changes in slope stability due to erosion or weathering.
