condensed ice have passed a boundary called the frost line. Planets behind the frost line have conditions cold enough for ice to condensate and form a planet. How hot is lava? Bright red lava can get as hot as 1165 degrees Fahrenheit while glowing orange lava can get hotter than 1600 degrees Fahrenheit. Lastly the highest temperature that lava has been recorded reaching was

near a volcano is obviously very high‚ but these risks are calculated. People don’t live on the side of a volcano because of the thrill‚ there is much more to why people do it. The dangers of living so close to an active volcano can be catastrophic‚ lava flows‚ lahars‚ and pyroclastic flows can all be devastating‚ so why then do people do it‚ people like those who live on the sides of Merapi‚ Indonesia‚ and those of Pinatubo in the Philippines‚ there is no denying that it happens but why‚ why do people

Earthquake‚ shaking of the Earth’s surface caused by rapid movement of the Earth’s rocky outer layer. Earthquakes occur when energy stored within the Earth‚ usually in the form of strain in rocks‚ suddenly releases. This energy is transmitted to the surface of the Earth by earthquake waves. The destruction an earthquake causes depends on its magnitude and duration‚ or the amount of shaking that occurs. A structure’s design and the materials used in its construction also affect the amount of damage

volcanic cone (Gran Cono) that was built within a summit caldera (Mount Somma). The Somma-Vesuvius complex has formed over the last 25‚000 years by means of a sequence of eruptions of variable explosiveness‚ ranging from the quiet lava outpourings that characterized much of the latest activity (for example from 1881 to 1899 and from 1926 to 1930) to the explosive Plinian eruptions‚ including the one that destroyed Pompeii and killed thousands of people in 79 A.D. At least seven Plinian

three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat‚ usually circular base to a point called the apex or vertex. Volcanoes form cones‚ the steepness and height of which depends on the runniness (viscosity) of the lava. Fast‚ runny lava forms flatter cones; thick‚ viscous lava forms steep-sided cones.

acronym CROPT.[15] An example of the development of a soil would begin with the weathering of lava flow bedrock‚ which would produce the purely mineral-based parent material from which the soil forms. Soil development would proceed most rapidly from bare rock of recent flows in a warm climate‚ under heavy and frequent rainfall. Under such conditions‚ plants become established very quickly on basaltic lava‚ even though there is very little organic material. The plants are supported by the porous rock

perfect paradise is described as a lava lake not a paradise with crystal clear waters and sunny skies. They were attracted to fire since Maurice was 8 and Katia was 14. They transformed their passion to a way of life. Also in 1988‚ they had a trip to Africa and visited the volcano Longui. It was very steep and had flowing lava that was not red but black. It is rich in minerals and that’s what gives it the black color. What was strange was that the black lava became white within 24 hours and at

Eruption of Mt. Vesuvius‚ A.D. 79 The Eruption of Mt. Vesuvius is one of the greatest volcanic eruptions in the past. Since I live in the Midwest‚ we don’t experience volcanic activity‚ which is why they interest me. The A.D. 79 upsurge of Mt. Vesuvius included many details common to Pompeii and caused harm & destruction to property and lives that affected the region‚ but has improved in the aftermath. On August 24th‚ A.D. 79 the residents of Pompeii were hit with something that actually was expected

explosive eruptions since 1479‚ and dozens more smaller eruptions.Producing pyroclastic flows‚lava flows‚ and lahars. During the past 4‚000 years‚ Mount St. Helens has erupted more frequently than any other volcano in the Cascade Range. Volcanic mudflows filled rivers with rocks‚ sand‚ and mud‚ damaging 27 bridges. Over the course of 17 episodes‚ lava eruptions began filling the crater‚ building a lava dome that reached 876 feet above the crater floor. 5. This project taught me a lot about
