By: Jackson Smith. Type of Volcano. The Yellowstone caldera is a SUPERVOLCANO!. The Yellowstone Supervolcano is still very active, but is not shooting out lava. .

Old Faithful Geyser. Wildlife at Yellowstone. Yellowstone National Park History . Located in Wyoming, Yellowstone was established in 1872 and was the first national park in the world!. Questions.. What is . volcanism (volcanic activity)?. Where does volcanic activity occur?. Some interesting or important volcanoes.. Volcanic activity could be described as any place where material from within the Earth reaches the surface.. E. Cullen; C. Johnston; M. . MacKenzie. ; A. Millar-. Durrant. ; K. Pal; F. Rea and G. Thomas. . Reference: . https://community.dur.ac.uk/g.r.foulger/Offprints/Yellowstone.pdf. Time History Volcanism . Why does Western Washington have so many earthquakes and volcanoes?. Western Washington has many earthquakes and volcanoes because we are close to a plate boundary. A small oceanic plate (Juan de Fuca) is sinking under the North American plate. This creates a trench and a Subduction Zone. As the Juan de Fuca plate slides under the North American plate it sometimes catches and great pressure builds up. When the plates snap the pressure is released in the form of an earthquake. The leading edge of the Juan de Fuca plate melts and magma pushes its way to the surface creating volcanoes like Mount Rainier and Mt. St. Helens..
