Santa Maria Volcano Santa Maria’s first recorded eruption was in 1902‚ it was dormant for at least 500-1000 years before that. When it awoke‚ it caused seismic swarm activation in many volcanos in the region. There was also a major earthquake along with the many eruptions. The eruption tore most of the south western part of the volcano off and around 5‚000 people were killed as a result of it. The volcanic ash fell as far as San Francisco‚ which is 2‚996.8 miles from Santa Maria. The volcano didn’t

Barret James APHG Chapter 13 Guided Reading Assignment 1. What key contribution to our planet’s history did Alfred Wegener make? A. He proposed a hypothesis that would account for the close “fit” of the shapes of the facing continents. His continental drift hypothesis required a preexisting super continent‚ Pangaea‚ which split into the continents of the world. 2. In what two ways have humans effected the earth’s environment during our presence on this planet? A. 1. Long before we became technologically

seen: the birth of a Hawaiian island. Like tiny Lilliputians scurrying around Gulliver‚ researchers in submersibles have been probing and measuring Loihi since 1987. The growing seamount is offering scientists new insights into the evolution of volcanoes‚ the evolution of life and perhaps even the evolution of the Earth itself. Research on the nature of Loihi has already revised ideas about the workings of the planet’s largest known hot spot. Recent

Volcanic eruptions can cause damage within hundreds of miles away. The volcano ash’s causes airplane engines to fail‚ destroys crops‚ contaminates water‚ and damages electronics and machinery. When the ash touch’s the ground‚ burying everything‚ sometimes even make’s buildings to collapse. Mount St. Helen’s produced more than 490 tons of ash that fell over some many miles. All volcanos are dangerous. They are all scattered all over the world and we don’t know when they are going to blow. The three

Guatemala is located in Central America and is bordered by Belize‚ El Salvador‚ Honduras‚ and Mexico. “ There‚ smoldering volcanoes meet swirling mists‚ and fertile coastal plains enfold lush green cloud forests” (Sheehan‚ 5). Now I will begin discussing the geography‚ climate‚ government‚ economy‚ and interesting facts on Guatemala. The geography in Guatemala varies greatly from volcanoes to lakes. The highlands take up about half of the country‚ while the Peten lowlands take about one third it. Guatemala
