Notas del editor

  1. Volcanic Gases:-present day: 50%-80% water vapor&lt; amounts of CO2, Nitrogen, Sulfur gases.Lava Flows:-Panahoe-taffy-like flow-AA- rough, angular block and fragments-Pillow Lava-bubble-like mass, formed when lava chills rapidly.Pyroclastic Materials:-volcanic ash-very toxic
  2. Cinder Cones-rarelyexcede 400 m high-made from the toxic pyroclastic materialShield Volcanoes-built from the overlapping mineral lava flows
  3. Composite-composed of lava flows and pyroclastic layers-typically mudflows
  4. Gas:-very toxic, CO2Volcanic Tremors:-ground motion that last for days to months, causing magma to move beneath the surfaceForecast?-Some larger, more dangerous volcanoes are monitered-United States Geological Survey(USGS) have found several ways to help with the planning of volcanoes.
  5. Circum-p
