One of the long-term impacts on human environments caused by cinder cone volcanoes are volcanic gases. During major explosive eruptions‚ “huge amounts of volcanic gas” and ash are injected into the stratosphere. Most are removed within “several days to weeks” but volcanic

His best known eruption occurred first in 416 AD However‚ this eruption destroyed the volcano of Krakatoa‚ which collapsed and formed a caldera 4 miles wide. Verlaten islands and Lang are remnants of this volcano‚ more then three volcanoes were combined to form the island of Krakatoa. Picture: simulation

The same is true of volcanoes and locations known for earthquakes‚ such as the Philippines‚ have many volcanoes.The Hawaiian Islands are located near the centre of the Pacific Plate. These islands of Hawaii experience plate movement‚ helping to form the volcanoes that created those islands. At the south of the island group‚ many volcanoes are still active‚ while those to the north are mainly dormant. The reason for this is that

Reading Material: Realms of the Earth Astro-physicists and scientists believe that there could be quite a few planets in the Universe similar to our planet Earth. There is also a probable chance that some form of life prevails and sustains in one of such planet. However‚ so far as we presently know‚ the Earth is the only planet which supports life which makes it a very unique planet. It is therefore imperative (very important and necessary) for us to understand the spheres of the Earth as the spheres

Volcanic and seismic events are major pieces of evidence towards proving that the plate tectonics theory is valid. The theory of tectonic plates was first posed by Alfred Wenger in 1912. Is the theory of how the earth lithosphere is made up of many separate pieces of the earth’s crust known as tectonic plates. He put forward the idea that all the earth’s continents were once conjoined in one supercontinent called Pangaea‚ and that these continents were moved by convection currents over a period
