Cross Section
of A Volcano
|
| |
|
| |
Introduction:
Today, there are many active volcanoes worldwide. Is
there anything we can do to predict how and when they
will erupt?
As the world's population grows, more and more people
are living in potentially dangerous volcanic areas.
Volcanic eruptions continue--as they have throughout
history--posing ever-greater threats to life and
property.
This project is another effort toward learning about
volcano structure and eruption. |

Material
and instructions
Draw or make a model
to show the cross section of a volcano with all details
including vents for magma as it rises to the earth's surface
where it erupts as gas, ash, and lava, a magma chamber,
alternating layers of ash and lava, parasitic cone of ash and
lava, crust, either oceanic or continental.
