What caused Mt. St. Helen’s to erupt?

Volcanoes By Mrs. Hicks.

Shield Volcano Built of layers of lava by repeated non- explosive eruptions Lava is runny (low viscosity) Has gentle sloping sides Ex: Mauna Kea-tallest.

Three Types of Volcanoes. Shield Volcanoes Low silica level Low silica level Low viscosity Lava Low viscosity Lava High or low levels of gas High or low.

Two factors determine the type of eruption :  Amount of water vapor & other gases in the magma  The chemical composition of the magma Types of Volcanic.

Volcanoes. Where?  Volcanoes occur most frequently at plate boundaries.  Some volcanoes, like those that form the Hawaiian Islands, occur in the interior.

3 TYPES OF VOLCANOES. SHEILD HOW DO THEY FORM? Thin layers of lava pour out a vent and harden on top of previous layers.

Hot Spots. What are they? Hot spots are fixed places where hot molten magma rises up through the crust to reach the surface, sometimes in the middle of.

A volcano is a mountain or hill through which molten rock, also known as lava and gases, erupt.

Objectives  I will know what earthquakes are and how they are monitored on Earth.  I will know how volcanoes are formed and what types of volcanoes are.

SHIELD VOLCANOES Senior Table. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS Wide volcano shallowly sloping sides Formed by lava flows with low viscosity Many of the largest.

Active Earth Volcanoes and Earthquakes We are learning to understand that there are different types of volcanoes.

Intro Objective: 7 November 2011 Compare and contrast the three types of volcanoes. Why do you think different eruption types make differently shaped volcanoes?
