  1. Volcanoes Vocabulary that you are accountable for is underlined! Eruption in Indonesia 1/8/2014

  2. Hot Spots- area of high temp. lava- made Hawaii

  3. View From Space - Klyuchevskaya, Russia

  4. Magma – molten rock beneath the surfaceLava – molten rock on the surface

  5. Types of Volcanoes Composite Cone or

  6. A Cinder Cone:Wizard Island at Crater Lake, Oregon

  7. Icelandic Volcanoes

  8. Eyjafjallajokull

  9. Tuff Ring: Diamond Head, Hawaii

  10. Shield Volcano: Mauna Loa, Hawaii

  11. Stratovolcano or Composite Cone: Mount Shasta, California

  12. Shastina and Landslide Deposit

  13. Lava Flows Pyroclastic Debris Bombs Lapilli Ash Mudflows Landslides Gases Steam Carbon Dioxide H2S SO2 HCl HF Products of Eruptions

  14. Pollution SO2, HCl in Water Lava Flows Falling Ejecta Ash Falls Building Collapse Crop Destruction Mudflows Direct Damage (Colombia, 1985) Floods (Several Types) Blast (Mt. St. Helens, 1980) Pyroclastic Flow (St. Pierre, 1902) Gas (Lake Nyos, Cameroon, 1986) Environmental Hazards of Volcanoes

  15. Pyroclastic Flow or Nuee- Ardente (French: Fiery Cloud)

  16. How Calderas Form:

  17. Crater Lake, Oregon

  18. Colorado Volcanoes ?– La Garita

  19. Evolution of Volcanoes An active volcanic landscape

  20. Evolution of Volcanoes A volcanic landscape after a million years or so

  21. Mount Hoodis a stratovolcano in the Cascades of northern Oregon

  22. The caldera at Crater Lake National Park cuts through the flanks of the former Mount Mazama (composite cone)

  23. Layers of tephra on Usu (stratovolcano) in Japan. The crater by the volcanologists was formed in 1977-1978.

  24. Eruption of Galunggung (stratovolcano) in Indonesia.

  25. 1980 eruption of Mt. Saint Helens produced 0.1 cubic miles (0.5 cubic km) of ash. Stratovolcanoes are associated with subduction zones, areas where dense oceanic plates are pushed beneath more buoyant continental plates.

  26. The cinder cone in the above photo is Puu Lilinue on Mauna Kea in Hawaii.

  27. Cinder cones are produced by "fire fountains," low-energy eruptions that propel fragments of lava 100s of feet into the air.

  28. A volcanic dome is a steep-sided, rounded extrusion of highly viscous lava squeezed out from a volcano to form a dome-shaped, or bulbous, mass of lava above and around the volcanic vent

  29. During the 1989-1990 eruption of Redpubt volcano (Alaska) several lava domes grew and collapsed near the summit of the volcano.

  30. Flood Basalts • The Columbia River basalts cover parts of the states of Oregon, Washington, and Idaho and are a famous example of flood basalts that produced a lava plain.

  31. Lava • Eruptions under water or ice produce pillow lava (become pillow basalt)

  32. Coastal Flows

  33. "Pahoehoe" and "aa" are Hawaiian words used to describe the type of lava volcanoes have

  34. Aa Flow

  35. Pahoehoe

  36. Lava Tubes
