<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.

Which of these statements best explains how oceans influence climate by storing heat? oceans cool off very quickly at night and

The last statement is correct. Water stores heat better than land mass, so when the heat that is stored in land cools, the heat particles in the air over the ocean is packed very closely and want to be further away from each other. That causes the wind to blow towards land, where it is more room for particles. I hope that made sense.
