Do hot spot volcanoes tend to erupt more explosively than other volcanoes?
The source is not as important as the gas content and viscosity. For example, Kilauea in Hawaii doesn't erupt very explosively; it is just a fire fountain. The more explosive volcanoes are those with a blocked magma chamber that builds pressure under a solid surface. Hotspot volcanoes tend to be less explosive because most are on the seafloor.
What seasons do volcanoes occur?
volcanoes can occur in any season

What is responsible for earthquakes and volcanoes?

Volcanoes are driven entirely by geologic forces.
Can volcanoes erupt because of human interference?

Are there any volcanoes in Bhutan?
In 1934 there was a huge earthquake in Kathmandu, Nepal. It was estimated that around 20,000 human lives were taken.
The important of volcanoes?
Volcanoes are large formations that having an opening where gases and lava can escape out of the Earth's magma chamber. Some types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, super volcanoes, and mud volcanoes. The largest volcano based on height is Tamu Massif.
Slightly domed shaped volcanoes of Hawaii are?
It is important to know the definition of new terms. The broad slightly dome-shaped volcanoes in Hawaii are Shield Volcanoes.
What is the human hazard ranking of paricutin?
Paricutin is considered a low human hazard volcano. It last erupted in 1952 and has been inactive since then. While it is important to monitor active volcanoes for any potential activity, currently Paricutin does not pose a significant threat to human safety.
Why do earthquakes and volcanoes be in the news?
Because earthquakes and volcanoes are important, they can cause the death of dozens or even thousands of people.
What makes volcanoes so interesting to scientists?
Volcanoes are definitely somewhat dangerous, looking back at disasters that have happened in the past. Some Volcanoes have been sleeping for millions of years and no one knows when another one will erupt. Scientists (particularly Volcanologists) are interested in volcanoes perhaps because of the dangers of an active volcano being so close to people.
