MONTSERRAT VOLCANO REPORT Montserrat is a small island is in the Caribbean. It is only 12 miles long and 7 miles wide. It is known as the ’Emerald Island’ Because of its mountainous and wooded terrain. It has attracted many rich people to the island and was famous for rock stars recording there. However‚ much of the population are poor and rely on farming to survive. Before the eruptions from 1995 onwards – There was over 12000 people living there‚ but now there is only about 5000. CAUSES

geologist Daniel Dzurisin. Yellowstone is easily one of the biggest volcanoes in the world‚ and one of the few super volcanoes on continental crust. The extreme ways of this volcano‚ is what makes it unique. Because of its tectonic setting‚ there are many hazards involved‚ as well as potential for damage. The history of this volcano explains that‚ and other super volcanoes help explain what could potentially happen when Yellowstone finally does erupt. Tectonic Setting: To begin‚ the tectonic

around the hole accumulate to create a volcano. These happen most often at "hot spots"‚ which are places along the edges of earth plates that are weak enough to allow the earth to vent hot lava. The study of movement at these plates that creates super geologic activity is called plate tectonics. Statement of the problem The study aimed to find out what ingredient/s together with baking soda and red food coloring will be able to make an unrealistic volcano model “erupt”. Specifically‚ the study

Science FAIR This volcano experiment is unlike the other volcanoes‚ instead it is more unique. In this science project‚ we will be making our own man-made volcano erupt! (except more sophisticated) Our team members are Andrew‚ Jimmy‚ Rosa‚ and Me. (Colin) Well‚ not necessarily make it burst into flames with 2‚085 degrees Fahrenheit lava dripping down; we are making “lava” come out made with soap‚ baking soda‚ vinegar‚ and a little food color to make the “lava” look pleasant. We have many questions

Volcano Essay A volcano is an opening‚ or rupture‚ in a planet’s surface or crust‚ which allows hot magma‚ volcanic ash and gases to escape from below the surface. It is a raised area of land‚ which usually forms a mountain or hill. Volcanoes are generally found along tectonic plates- diverging or converging. There are four main types of volcanoes‚ dome‚ shield‚ composite cone and cinder cone‚ which are based on their shape. There are three levels of activity‚ active‚ dormant and extinct.

Iceland’s Financial Crisis Iceland financial crisis was became a crucial topic in the global financial market. Several years before the crisis occurred Iceland was in really well condition. They were in favorable economic condition such as strong economic growth encouraged by economic reforms‚ deregulation‚ and low inflation. Financial crisis began in 2008 when the three major banks in Iceland they are Landsbanki‚ Glitnir‚ and Kaupthing collapsed within few days and then followed by the bankruptcy

Michael 5/10/12 The Yellowstone volcano has the potential to destroy all life on Earth. I believe that the volcano will erupt because the Yellowstone volcano is still active. The volcano has not erupted any time recently‚ and could make it even more dangerous the longer it stays dormant. If it does erupt‚ how would it wipe out the population on Earth? Will this event be significant to our generation? What are some of the statistics on the Yellowstone volcano? Is there a way to prevent the eruption

How Iceland was formed Iceland‚ situated on top of a hotspot experiences severe volcanic activity one of the most well known eruptions was in 2010 when Eyjafjallajokull erupted seriously disrupting European air traffic. Iceland is situated is situated in the mid Atlantic ridge a seam in the Earth’s surface under the North Atlantic Ocean where the Eurasian and North American plates slide apart. This island has more than 200 volcanoes which is thought to be what created this island. This picture

Grímsvötn volcano is located near the center of the Vatnajökull ice cap in central Iceland. At a height of 5658 feet‚ it has the highest eruption frequency of all the volcanoes in Iceland. Grímsvötn volcano has a complex of calderas‚ of about six by eight kilometers in area‚ and a subglacial caldera lake sustained by geothermal heat. A caldera‚ a large‚ circular depression at the summit of a volcano‚ is formed when magma is withdrawn or erupted from a shallow underground magma reservoir. The caldera
