It's volcanic eruptions.  The shifts in the tectonic plates would disturb the volcano causing it to erupt.  Hurricanes are just wind rain which is not a direct result of tectonic activity.

What features suggest wheather erosion or deposition created a landform?
11111nata11111 [884]
Not quite sure what you're asking, but erosion and deposition do create land forms. For example: erosion along the coastline may result in the formations of arches, stacks, stumps, wave cut platforms, caves, etc. Deposition, different amount of it and in certain areas, under the influence of either destructive or constructive waves, will form beaches - ones with a lot of beach, through a lot of deposition, or slopes beaches where destructive waves have crashed upon the beach. Hope this is what you're looking for.

What was unusual about the 1986 volcano-related disaster near Lake Nyos in Cameroon? A. A volcanic eruption involved a lateral b
Grace [21]

The correct answer is - C. Volcanic derived carbon dioxide gas bubbled from the lake and suffocated people and animals nearby.

In the summer of 1986, more specifically on the August 21st, a big tragedy happened in Cameroon. The Lake Nyos, located in the northwestern part of the country experienced a limnic eruption. This eruption triggered the release of very large amounts of carbon dioxide from the lake. The exact amount of carbon dioxide that was released is debatable, and the general consensus is that it was between 100,000 and 300,000 tons of the gas, though there are suggestions that it was up to 1.6 million tons.

The gas spread around very quickly, and being heavier than the air it stuck very low. In a radius of around 25 km from the lake, lot of people and animals were suffocated. The estimates are that 1746 people died and around 3,500 livestock died, not even counting the damage that has been done to the wild animals.
