<u>Lahars</u> volcanic hazard is most likely to cause destruction in towns located 30-60 kilometers away from a Cascade Range volcano.

Lahar comes from Indonesian word which describe a mudflow or debris flow that originates on the slopes of a volcano. Small debris flows known to be very common within the Cascades, where they form in the times of heavy rainfall, rapid snow melt, and by shallow land sliding. These relatively small debris flows infrequently give way some miles down valleys. Inside the Cascades, the word lahar is normally reserved for larger events that occur in addition with volcanic eruptions, and travel many miles down valleys and affects the local communities. Lahars may occur by rapid melting of snow and ice during eruptions, by liquefaction of giant landslides (also called debris avalanches), by breakout floods from crater lakes, and by erosion from fresh volcanic ash deposits during heavy rains. Amid and immediately following volcanic eruptions, lahars can demeanor the foremost severe hazard to more populated valleys downstream from Cascades volcanoes.

So, the lahars volcanic hazard can cause destruction in towns located 30-60 kilometers away from a Cascade Range volcano.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

"All of them except last one."

Explanation:

All of the given options represent NASA future projects:

  • Use a probe to collect data- Parker Solar Probe will be the first-ever mission to study the Sun from such a small distance. The spacecraft will travel directly into the Sun's atmosphere about 4 million miles from the surface.
  • Improve aviation technology- NASA is currently working on the development of the new experimental aircraft X-plane which will prove the dramatic benefits of advanced technologies in piloted flight.
  • Conduct research from a space station- Humans are already living and working on board of the International Space Station which is one-of-a-kind research laboratory in micro gravity. A portion of the astronauts time aboard the space station has been designated for national laboratory investigations.
  • Collect samples on an asteroid- First asteroid sample return mission, OSIRIS-R Ex, arrives at the near-Earth asteroid Bennu in December 2018 and should return a sample for study in 2023.
  • Conduct an unmanned space mission- In Sight Mars lander is set to study the planet’s interior. The Mars 2020 rover will search for signs of past microbial life, gather samples for future return to Earth and investigate resources. The James Webb Space Telescope will be the premier observatory of the next decade, studying every phase in the history of our Universe in infrared

When does a slump occur
nika2105 [10]
Hey there,

Basically a slump happens along a cliff when the clay underneath it is saturated or easily erodible.So when heavy rainfall or other forces occur the top off the cliff falls and creates a sort of slumping shape.
It’s also known as a land slip.
So this would mainly happen to cliffs near the sea after rough waves or a cliff getting hit with rainwater.

Hope this helps and Happy New Year

Should United States try to keep out all illegal aliens from Mexico? Why or why not
never [62]
Immigrants often “take” jobs from the people already living in the USA and some imma grants aren’t seeking refuge but are using their residency to smuggle illegal things like drugs and people thru the border

Immigrants are often seeking refuge from gangs, drug cartels, and bad government/oppression and war. Sometimes people come to America for work and/or education or to start a new life.


This is really a matter of opinion. I’m from Texas and am very familiar with illegal immigration and am for immigration but I believe that illegal immigration needs to be controlled more.
