Special Information About Volcanos What is a volcano and how can it be disastrous to the environment? Volcanoes are mountains filled with either lava or magma. When it erupts, it causes the lava or magma to pour out of the side of the volcano which is very dangerous to touch because the temperature is so hot, it can burn through people's skin and bones. After the lava cools down enough, it hardens and becomes a special magma rock. How can you tell when a volcano can erupt? Well, the question is simple if you feel any tremors from underneath the surface, or a trail of smoke coming from the sky, these are signs that can tell you that a volcanic eruption can occur. Basically, from the 11 Facts about Volcanos website, there is information about how volcanos can erupt, because not all of them have the same production system. For example, some eruptions are made when pressure from within the volcanos is built up. The main radius of how much lava pours out of a volcano is about 20 miles, ...

Geological Findings of Earthquakes September 6, 2022 For this week of Addison's Blog, we will be discussing the shocking discoveries as well as the history of earthquakes. Earthquakes are geological signs of ground shifting which are caused by other natural disasters, such as erupting volcanos from offshore islands, tsunamis, or from within the earth's crusts. There are four types of earthquakes which are volcanic, tectonic, explosion, and collapse.  Each of these earthquakes is different because of the impact they make on the earth's surface above ground and its inhabitants. For volcanic, these come from any volcanos that erupt which in turn causes tectonic movements. Tectonics is about the physical and chemical changes of the earth's edges when they break away from the mainland and form new forms after a series of decades. An example can be found in the previous issue of this blog. The third set of earthquakes is an explosion which is a major earthquake because it is ...
