    Maui Volcano In Wailea-Makena, Hawaii

    As www.marinebio.net states, Wailea-Makena, Hawaii, East Maui County was caused by a hotspot or an extra hot plume of molten rock. This happens when heat rises as a thermal cloud from inside of the Earth. Heat and pressure at the bottom of the tectonic plate forces magma to form which then rises through cracks and erupts to form volcanoes. As volcanoes move away from a hotspot, they start to erode and become inactive. Maui is the third oldest volcano of the main Hawaiian islands and could still erupt one more time. Haleakalā or the East Maui Volcano is also a shield volcano or a broad, domed volcano with sloping sides. It forms more than 75% of the Hawaiian Island of Maui and has an alert level of “normal.” The last time Maui erupted was in the 17th century, but even so, the soil is still very fertile from it’s past eruptions. Thanks to this fertile soil, crops such as coffee, macadamia, papaya, tropical flowers, sugar and fresh pineapple grow here.…

    Mount Kilauea

    Mount Kilauea is the most famous volcano in Hawaii. It resides in the southeast in Mauna Loa. This volcano has one of the biggest craters of all volcanoes, consisting of 3,646 feet deep. It has an 8 mile circumference and is encompassed entirely by an enormous “wall of volcanic rock 200 to 500 ft high” (Mount Kilauea). “Mount Kilauea is a low and flat shield volcano that rises only 1,247 meters above sea level. Till date, the Kilauea volcano is the most active and the most visited volcano in the world” (Oak, By Manali). Mount Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii. It has a lava level of 740 ft. under the rim. “Kilauea was formed under a hot spot under the crust. So were the other volcanoes on the Big Island such as Kohala, Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai. There have been 34 eruptions since 1952 and 61 eruptions total” (Mount Kilauea). Hawaii has eight volcanoes and for the moment consists of 4,038 square miles. This will not be the case for long though, because thanks to Mount Kilauea, approximately forty-two acres are added each year from the eruptions. Mount Kilauea is only one of the five still-active volcanoes in Hawaii, but it is definitely the most famous. This is due to a variety of reasons but not the least of which is the belief that the Mount Kilauea Volcano is the resting place of the infamous fire goddess Pele.…

    Rocky Mountain, Lander's Peak

    The piece of artwork, done by Albert Bierstadt in 1863, titled Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak, is an oil on canvas and is of true inspirational beauty. He perfectly captures the cool, vivid colors of the real forest. The scene makes you feel extremely calm, peaceful, and serene due to the relaxing nature of the picture itself. The cast shadows make the painting very 3-D and make you feel as though you are standing directly in the field, looking at the scenery yourself. The more you observe the painting, the more you can hear the horses in the field, the water rushing down the fall, and the more you can smell the fresh rocky mountain air. The extreme detail in the horses, people, and forestry show Bierstadt's time and effort spent in perfecting this masterpiece.…

    Mt Etna

    Mt Etna

    An eruption begins when pressure on a magma chamber forces magma up through the conduit and out the volcano's vents. When the magma chamber has been completely filled, the pressure in the pipe will build up very high resulting in an explosion. When magma reaches earth's surface it is called lava. It may pour out in gentle streams called lava flows or erupt violently into the air. Rocks ripped loose from the inside of the volcano or torn apart by the gas may be shot into the air with the lava. These rocks are blown out of a volcano and are called volcanic bombs. Along with these bombs dust, ash, lava and cinder are released into the air. Volcanic activity is classified by how often a volcano erupts. A volcano may be active, dormant, or extinct. Active volcanoes erupt constantly. Dormant volcanoes are inactive, but not long enough to determine whether they will erupt again or not. Extinct volcanoes have been inactive since the beginning of recorded history.…

    L is for lost. As you might know, this spring break I went to lake Konoplis with my Mom, Dad, and sister. It was very exiting, because this was going to be the first time we had ever stayed in a cabin. Lake Konoplis is right past the small town of Marquette. When we go to the cabin the first thing we did was unpack. Shortly we went down to a little fishing place we saw when we came in. We weren't having any luck there so we decided to go to a different section of the lake.…

    Mount Etna

    Sicily 's greatest natural attraction is also its highest mountain. To the ancient Greeks, Mount Etna was the realm of Vulcan, god of fire, and the home of the one-eyed monster known as the Cyclops. At approximately 3350 meters, it is Europe 's highest active volcano. The height of its summit changes with each eruption, and over the centuries a few lava flows have reached the coast. Over 1200 square meters of Etna 's surface is covered with solidified lava. Etna offers skiing in the Winter months and breathtaking hikes in the woods during the Summer. There are also a number of smaller peaks on the slopes of Etna, and some interesting caverns. Since Etna is a strato volcano, with relatively cool lava temperatures and numerous openings (vents), nobody ever knows precisely where on its vast surface the next eruption will be. Etna 's long recorded history has proven invaluable to the world 's volcanologists. Mount Etna is said to erupt in a Strombolian style in which the mountain erupts like a fountain from a single vent or crater.…

    Mt. Everest

    Some of the bad things about the project is that it can cause more pollution instead of lowering the chances of it. The building if not stable enough could collapse because the base camp is a moving glacier. Building this would cost more than $700,000 (not including the cost for electricity and supplies). That would make a sum of about $3,000,000 for when it is first built and and about $2,300,000 for all the supplies and electricity. That probably does not even include the cost of shipping. which would add about $50,000 every time a load of stuff is shipped there.…
