contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
Metamorphism typically occurs within a temperature range of 200-800 degrees Celsius. This range can vary depending on the specific minerals and conditions present during metamorphic processes.
It is called contact metamorphism.
The two types of metamorphism are contact metamorphism and regional metamorphism. Contact metamorphism occurs when rocks are altered by heat and pressure from nearby magma, typically in a localized area. Regional metamorphism occurs over a larger area due to tectonic forces and is associated with higher pressures and temperatures.
Contact metamorphism occurs next to an intrusion of molten magma. This type of metamorphism happens when hot magma comes into contact with existing rock, causing the rock to undergo changes in mineralogy and texture due to the heat and pressure.
contact metamorphism is what happens when something is really hot. regional metamorphism on the other hand involves much larger packages of rocks.

There different from each other because contact metamorphism is a local effect that occurs when molten rock meets solid rock, but on the other hand hydrothermal metamorphism occurs when very hot water reacts with rock, altering its mineralogy and chemistry.
Metasomatism is specifically the chemical change of rock by the introduction of hot fluids, creating a different type of rock.Broadly, metamorphism is the change of rock from one type to another by heat and/or pressure.
The four types of metamorphism are contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism, and hydrothermal metamorphism. Contact metamorphism occurs near igneous intrusions, regional metamorphism happens over large areas due to tectonic forces, dynamic metamorphism occurs along fault zones, and hydrothermal metamorphism involves hot, circulating fluids altering rocks.
Metamorphism typically occurs within a temperature range of 200-800 degrees Celsius. This range can vary depending on the specific minerals and conditions present during metamorphic processes.
Metamorphic rock can undergo a series of changes called degrees of metamorphism, from low-grade to high-grade.

Contact metamorphism occurs when rocks are subjected to high temperatures and pressures due to being in close proximity to an igneous intrusion, leading to localized changes in mineralogy and texture. In contrast, regional metamorphism affects large areas of rocks over a wide region due to tectonic forces such as mountain building or subduction, resulting in widespread changes in mineralogy and texture. Contact metamorphism is therefore more localized and less intense compared to regional metamorphism.
