The Lithosphere of Earth  Igneous Processes and Volcanic Activity 1. Why study? Thermal state Thermal history Composition of interior Geothermal / Hazards Comparative planetology 2. Volcanism and plate boundaries Divergent - Continental breakup (Flood basalts) - Mid-ocean ridge Convergent - Domes, flows, explosive, composite volcanoes Intraplate Volcanism - Strombolian style - Hawaiian style
