Lava Video. Volcanoes, magma, and lava. Volcanoes are weak spots in the crusts where molten material, or magma, comes to the surface.. When magma reaches the surface it is called lava.. The lava released during volcanic activity builds up Earth’s surface, it is a constructive force.. Chapter 5. Rigid Earth to Plate Tectonics. Learning Objectives. Know the different types of volcanoes and their associated features. Understand the relationship of the volcanoes to plate tectonics. Know what geographic regions are at risk from volcanoes. Frequency and Quantity. There are ~ 550 historically active volcanoes. About 60 erupt annually. The majority are 1) at the edge of continents and 2) underwater. Dormant volcanic cone in Japan. What causes volcanoes?. Gwen . Nytes. Composition. The magma in this type of volcano is made of basaltic-andesitic materials. The magma has an intermediate viscosity, so . it’s mildly explosive. It also consists of a lot of gases, so when the lava cools and hardens in the air, gas bubbles get trapped inside. The particles fall back down as cinders, and pile around the vent.. Basaltic Lava – low silica content, low viscosity, low gas content. Hot spots – magma moves up from lower mantle and plates move over it . Ex. Hawaii. (note: see video on favorites). Shield Volcanoes. GO. What do you know already about volcanoes?. Let’s learn more. Click on the links below.. What is a volcano?. What is magma and what is lava?. What types of volcano are there?.

Major eruptions bring large amounts (Tg) of particles in the stratosphere.. Target #16- I can summarize the conditions needed for magma to form. Despite the high temperature in the mantle, most of the layer remains solid due to extreme pressure. Magma: . liquid rock produced under Earth’s surface. VOLCANOES.. What is a volcano?. A volcano is a mountain that opens . below . to a pool of molten rock . called a magma chamber below . the surface of the earth. When . the pressure . builds up, eruptions take place. . 9.1 – How & Where do Volcanoes Form?. One of the most dramatic activities associated with plate tectonics is the eruption of a volcano.. Volcano refers to both:. The . opening. in Earth’s crust through which molten rock, gases, and ash erupt.. Where are the major zones of volcanism?. What are the parts of a volcano?. How do volcanic landforms differ?. Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education. Volcanoes. Review. convergent. New. volcanism. hot spot. Volcanoes.

About 1500. Bellringer. Begin volcano video and questions. Objective. Pick one way to trigger a tsunami (1). Include one real life example (1). Describe how a tsunami wave is different from a wind wave (2). Structure of the Earth. What are the different layers of the Earth?. Structure of the Earth. Inner core. 6000. °C. Solid metal.
