To what extent can preparedness and planning mitigate the effects of volcanic hazards? Volcanic activity happens across the surface of the globe and naturally hazards occur too. It can be said that it’s easier to predict an event than prevent it‚ however prediction does have a positive impact on the effects of a volcanic hazard. Firstly‚ the extent to which preparation and planning can decrease effects can only be done by prediction. There are numerous ways in which volcanoes can be monitored

theory. This helps to prove that the boundries themselves are actually present and is a very simple way of validating the theory itself. Furthermore the fact that only certain types of activity occur at different types of boundries such as sheild volcanos at converging plates helps to show that the movement of plates is different around the world and this can help to show which type of boundries are present and can be used to show interactions between plates. This once again despite being relevent

ENDOGENETIC PROCESS: The Endogenetic processes are the processes that shape the land by forces coming from within the earth (Endogenetic forces). There are 3 main Endogenetic processes: folding‚ faulting and volcanism. They take place mainly along the plate boundaries‚ which are the zones that lay on the edges of plates. These zones are weak. Endogenetic processes cause many major landform features. MOVEMENTS: The forces coming from within the earth cause two types of movements in the earth.
