Volcano Photographs Photos of volcanoes from Hawaii and Indonesia. http://www.heptune.com/volcano.html
Extractions: Volcano Photographs from Hawaii and Indonesia by Brenna Lorenz The first set of photographs was taken at Kilauea, an active shield volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii. This volcano is located over a hot spot, and is not located on a plate boundary. Shield volcanoes are the largest type of volcano on Earth and in the Solar System. Kilauea is so large and its slope is so gentle and gradual that many people visiting Volcano National Park at its summit don't realize that they are standing on the volcano. Park personnel say that people are always asking. "Where's the volcano?" This first photograph taken near the peak of Kilauea shows a former lava lake, now with a thick skin covering the still-molten magma a short distance underneath. The wispy white spots on the floor of the crater are places where steam and other volcanic gases are emerging from the magma. Visitors can take a hike along a trail crossing the lake surface. This photograph, taken from a helicopter, shows the vent that was active in 1996. Lava flows have covered roads and neighborhoods on the seaward side of Kilauea.

Extractions: Both earthquakes and volcanoes are surface expressions of heat within the Earth's interior. The lava that erupts from a volcano has its origin within the Earth's mantle. At depths of approximately 75-250 km mantle rocks can melt, generating magmas that rise to the surface and erupt. A quick tour of volcanoes of the world would show us that there are two fundamentally different behaviors that occur when volcanoes erupt. We'll tour two volcanic mountain ranges, Hawaii and the Cascades to explore these differences. Click along the menu on the left side of this screen to tour the different volcanic mountain ranges.
