Earthquakes and Volcanoes

Magma Magma is LESS DENSE than the rock around it and slowly forced up as lava. (Magma Chamber – space deep in the Earth that contains the molten rock.) What causes volcanoes?

Anatomy of a Volcano Magma reaches the surface and flows out through an opening called a vent. Lava flows out quickly and becomes solid, forming layers of igneous rock around the vent. A crater (opening at the top of a volcano) forms. (Caldera – larger crater up to 50 km in diameter)

Where do volcanoes occur? At Divergent plate Boundaries (15%) Separated plates form long deep cracks called rifts. Lava flows out and is instantly cooled by seawater. Ex. Iceland Laki

the Northern Lights have been rippling across the Icelandic sky over Eyjafjallajokull

At Convergent plate Boundaries (80%) – Magma is created in the subduction zone and is forced upward when 2 plates converge.

At hot spots (far away from plate boundaries) – some areas in the mantle are hotter than others and melt rock, which is forced up as magma. Ex. Hawaiian Islands

Yellowstone
