1. MTU Volcanoes Page Provides information about volcanic hazard mitigation. http://www.geo.mtu.edu/volcanoes/

Welcome to the Michigan Technological University Volcanoes Page Sponsored by the Keweenaw Volcano Observatory. Michigan Tech Houghton, MI USA Our Purpose A primary focus of volcanology is to provide scientific and educational information that can lead to hazard mitigation. Michigan Tech's Volcanoes Page aims to provide information about volcanoes to the public and to complement other informational sites on the web. We started this site when there were almost no other volcano sitesnow there are lots, and many of them have far more resources. So we now aim to fill in spots that aren't covered elsewhere. Send your suggestions! What is a volcano? We could say a volcano is a liquid rock plumbing system which extends from several 10's of kilometers depth to the earth's surface, and includes the near vent deposits of eruptions. Is this a good definition? Is this a volcano? How about this ? Or this? Earth's Volcanoes What's happening now? Smithsonian/USGS Weekly reports Which are earth's active volcanoes?

Grade 7 Natural Disasters Project Go outside, grab a shovel and start digging a hole. After your hole is one hundred meters deep, take a break and feel the earth. It will probably feel cool, but not cold. When your hole is one thousand meters deep, the earth should start to feel warm. If you can keep digging, you'll find that the earth continues to feel warmer as you dig deeper. Imagine wearing a concrete bodysuit all of the time. After a while, you'd feel extremely hot because of the tremendous pressure you'd feel on your body. If you think about it, the mantle wears a huge, heavy bodysuit that is about seventy kilometers thick. It's not too hard to believe, then, that there is extreme pressure and heat in the mantle. The high temperature and the push and pull forces cause some of the mantle to melt. This molten rock is known as magma. If you were wearing that concrete bodysuit, you'd probably fight to break free from it. You'd probably wiggle your fingers and stretch your toes to try and poke some small holes. The mantle tries to do just that. The outer layer of the earth has some weak spots and cracks in it. The magma in the mantle pushes and pulls against the outer layer until it finds a place where it can poke a hole and break free. Those places are called volcanoes. Once the magma bursts free it becomes lava. Magma and lava are the same substance. Both are melted rock. The different names help scientists know where the melted rock is located. Scientists know that the outer layer of the earth is made of solid rock and that it warms as you dig deeper. Based on many years of investigations, scientists now estimate that the crust of the earth, the solid outer layer, is about 44 miles deep at its thickest point. Beneath the crust is a deep, fiery layer of rock called the mantle. Even deeper is the core which scientists believe is made of solid iron and nickel. The mantle pushes and pulls between the solid rock of the core and the solid rock of the crust. Big pieces of the crust, called plates, form along the cracks. The huge plates, like giant rafts, drift on the waves of the liquid magma in the mantle. Most of the world's volcanoes are found along the margins of these huge plates. Eventually, two plates will bump into each other and one plate's edge will slip beneath the edge of the other plate. Much of the Pacific Ocean is encircled by a ring of volcanoes. This
