I Couldn’t believe what I was seeing ... minutes ticked by‚ when the letters

plates act like a hard ridged shell (fig 2 plate tectonics) Some of the plate tectonics move very slowly each year for example in Iceland there is a visible line where the plates are moving if the plates merge together they can cause mountains and volcanos. Mountains and volcanoes are formed buy two plates colliding together and one plate gets pushed down into the earth while the other gets pushed up and creates a mountain range or volcanoes.(Figure 2 plate tectonics)

WRITE A TWO PAGE DISCUSSION ON VULCANICITY IN EAST AFRICA. SS/BSS/09/0069 11/24/2010 GEO 211 | Vulcanicity comprises of all the processes through which emissions of magma‚ rock fragments called pyroclaitics and gases are released through openings in the earth’s crust. Most volcanoes appear to be explosive in nature and produce more pyroclastics than lava. The common types of vulcanoes are shield‚ conical and composite volcanoes. Basically‚ vulanicity in Eastern Africa can be categorized into

themes in the video were "Life is Reappearing"‚ "Paradise and Catastrophe" and "Creation and Destruction"; all deal with starting at one point‚ moving around in a circle‚ continuing the cycle over and over indefinitely. Life is destroyed after a volcano. The eruptions cause hot lava to destroy the natural habitat of many animals and some people‚ causing the instability of the system. But after a while‚ when the system becomes stable again‚ life reappears. New organisms thrive in the changed habitat

Landforms are the physical features of the earth. They are described with particular attention to the contours of the land slope‚ elevation and morphology as well as the context in which the landform resides. For instance‚ landforms may be categorized based on how they are formed (such as by erosion) or what surrounds them (such as surrounded by water or mountains). Landforms are distinct from the biota (plant and animal life) that inhabit the ecosystems contained within the landform. Scale -

decided that geoengineering was necessary‚ it’s possible to do the same with olivine. Also‚ he believes small things could make a big difference. Besides the olivine‚ there is another example of utilizing the geoengineering‚ which is mimicking the volcano. The volcanic eruption will release quantities of sulfur dioxide and the gas quickly formed tiny droplets of sulfuric acid‚ which acted like minuscule mirrors and reflected some of the sun’s rays back into space. Based on this situation‚ there is
