How much of Hawaii is covered by volcanoes?
All of it. The islands were created by volcanoes.
The three highest active volcanoes are in Hawaii?
Yes, Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Haleakalā are three of the highest active volcanoes in Hawaii, with Mauna Kea being the tallest at over 13,000 feet. These volcanoes are part of the larger Hawaiian-Emperor seamount chain.
Are all volcanoes in Hawaii active?
Any volcano that has erupted within the Holocene epoch (i.e. within the past 12,000 years) is considered to be active.Some examples of active volcanoes are Mount Etna in Sicily, Kilauea in Hawaii, Mount St. Helens in the US, Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines, Krakatoa in Indonesia and Mount Vesuvius in Italy.
Is there a volcano located in the middle of North America?
Yes. The are several groups of volcanoes. There is a chain of volcanoes in southern Alaska an continuing into the Aleutian Islands. Another chain of volcanoes is in the Cascade range, stretching from northern California into British Columbia in Canada. There are several active volcanoes in Hawaii. Finally there is a supervolcano in Yellowstone National Park.there are volcanoes in the us because they all erupt if you check the internet they say like in 2001 the was like 24 volcanoes that erupted. and there are alot of volcanoes like in hawaii they have someTo write the answer in English, the correct answer is yes there are volcanoes in the USA. Start at the western end of the Aleutian Island Chain in Alaska there are several volcanoes which erupt regularly, almost all are dormant. Next there are several in the 48 states - all as far as I am aware associated with the western states. Then there are the volcanoes of the 50th state - Hawaii. All the islands are volcanoes, and Mauna Kea is considered to be dormant possibly extinct, Mauna Loa is dormant - it last erupted in 1984, Kilauea is active and has been erupting since 23rd January 1983, off the coast of Hawaii is an active submarine volcano - Loihi. Have a look at the USGS website which will give you a lot more information.
What is the most common VEI for volcanoes in Hawaii?
0 to 1, 0 being more common than 1. The reason is that Hawaiian volcanoes aren't very explosive. They produce a lot of lava, but with a continuous flow. VEI index measures explosiveness, with indicators for eruption column height and volume of pyroclastic material produced. Both factors are low for Hawaiian volcanoes.

What percentage of Hawaii's volcanoes?
Approximately 90% of Hawaii's volcanoes are classified as shield volcanoes, which are characterized by their broad, gentle slopes formed by the eruption of low-viscosity basalt lava. The most famous of these is Mauna Loa, one of the world's largest volcanoes. In total, Hawaii has around 5 active volcanoes, with the rest being extinct or dormant.
When and how was the Hawaii islands made?
Hawaii island was made because of under water volcanoes the lava turns to solid rock. Hawaii is still maximizing and a new island is being formed. Hawaii was created

When was Hawaii built?
Hawaii wasn't built, its a natural structure. Actually Hawaii is still being built by active volcanoes. There is a new island underwater that is slowly being formed by volcanic activity. Lava, which is molten rock, is spewed out by volcanic activity and creates new land. This is now happening on the "Big Island" also known as Hawaii.

Where are volcanoes being studied?
Volcanoes are being studied in various locations around the world, including countries with active volcanic activity such as Japan, Italy, Iceland, Indonesia, and the United States. Many research institutions and universities have ongoing studies on volcanoes to better understand their behavior, potential hazards, and early warning signs of eruptions.

When does volcanoes occur more often?
Volcanoes occur at divergent and convergent plate boundaries due to the fact that crust is either being destroyed or created. Volcanoes also occur at hotspots, for example in Hawaii. Hotspots occur where the crust is particularly thin or weak, and plumes of magma rising from the asthenosphere (between upper mantle and the crust) end up giving rise to volcanoes or volcanic islands.
Does Guam have volcanoes?
Yes, extinct volcanoes, the largest being Mount LamLam. But no active volcanoes.
