Do glaciers cause valleys or earthquakes?
Glaciers can shape valleys through a process called glaciation, where the movement and erosion of ice carve out the landscape. However, glaciers do not cause earthquakes as they are not related to tectonic plate movement. Earthquakes usually occur due to the shifting of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface.
How do volcanoes affect Hawaii?
Hawai'i was formed from volcanoes. The shape of the islands (volcanic mountains) affects the weather. Volcanic activity causes eartquakes, eruptions on the Big Island cause it to continue to grow, cause fires, close roads. Gasses from the volcanoes can cause vog (volcanic smog) and volcanoes have produced fertile soil in Hawai'i.
Is there a pattern of where volcanoes form?
Most volcanoes are found where the tectonic plates of the earth end (a fault). A lot of volcanoes are found in the Pacific Ocean (between North America and Asia) and are sort of in a circle shape. This is mainly known as the "Ring of Fire." -Anonymous Source
What are strong earth quakes caused by?
Strong earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust due to the movement of tectonic plates. When these plates shift or collide, it can create seismic waves that result in the shaking of the ground we feel as an earthquake.
