Answer:

There are mainly 4 types of volcanoes.

Explanation:

1. Cinder cones: They are a bowl-shaped crater,  build from particle or blobs of congealed lava that is ejected from a single gas vent, as the air is broken into small fragments that are solidified and falls as cinders.

2. Composite volcanoes: stratovolcano or composite cone are those that form a steep-sided, symmetrical cone of large dimensions built around by lavas. Some examples are Mount Shasta in California, Mount Hood in Oregon.

3. Lava domes: There internal structure is defined by bulbous masses of lava, that are too vicious.

4. Shield volcanoes: These are built entirely by fluid lava, and flow p[ours in all directions.

A volcano can change its surrounding weather patterns but not the climate of a place as a climatic zone is composed of stable and static atmosphere like that of poles, tropics, and temperate lands, etc.  

Not all volcanic eruptions can be predicted successfully as they are also triggered by an earthquake and the active or dominant type of volcano can be identified based on its previous eruption patterns.

If three seismic stations have the following P–S intervals: DUG = 57 sec, WUAZ = 73 sec, ISCO = 14 sec, what is the order from c
iragen [17]

Answer:

ISCO-DUG-WUAZ

Explanation:

Seismic waves of an earthquakes is recorded first in the station closest to the earthquake. The P wave is the faster moving wave and then the S wave. The faster the time it takes the P and S waves to register in the seismographer the closer the station to the site of the earthquake. Bearing this in mind, the wave was first registered in ISCO making it closest to the earthquake site, followed by DUG and then WAUZ.

ISCO (14sec)-DUG (57sec)-WUAZ (73sec)
