Volcanoes of Kamchatka, Russia
Kamchatka's volcanoes have never been bloodthirsty: the natives of Kamchatka can hardly recall eruptions that carried death there. A dark silhouette of volcano against the clean dawning skies does not imply a threat - it is usually a token of nice weather for the people of Kamchatka. It is still hard, however, living in such proximity to the volcanoes, to get used to the idea that they are just some geological objects. The silence alongside the volcanoes is of a special sort, the one that fills the soul with an incomprehensible combination of anxiety and peace. Everything looks strange and unusual; you are gazing around as if perceiving a scrutinizing glance of another universe: you feel scared and at the same time happy, for this scrutinizing glance makes you feel someone's unbound power spreading over you - perhaps that sole true power you want to surrender to: Which of Kamchatka's volcanoes is the most beautiful? There is not an unargued leader, but one can certainly name the first three - though, as it goes, there are few objective criteria to assess beauty - nevertherless, the three volcanoes are Kluchevskoy, Koryaksky and Kronotsky. All the three can be good candidates to symbolize volcanic Kamchatka due to their total assets. The feature of Kluchevskoy, its height, (the absolute heights of the volcanoes are 4,750m, 3,456m and 3,528m respectively), is not as significant as it looks as the first glance. The greatest Eurasian volcano has made nearly 5 kilometers of height due to the fact that it was formed on a specific geological "pedestal", a slope of ancient volcano while the actual height (a relative one) is 3,000m, i.e. less than the height of Koryaksky (3,300m) or Kronotsky (3,100).

  • USGS: Volcanoes
    Volcanoes destroy and volcanoes create. The catastrophic eruption of Mount St. Helens on May 18, 1980, made clear the awesome destructive power of a volcano. Yet, over a time span longer than human memory and record, volcanoes have played a key role in forming and modifying the planet upon which we live. More than 80 percent of the Earth's surfaceabove and below sea levelis of volcanic origin.
  • Learner.org: Volcanoes
    Today, there are many active volcanoes worldwide. Is there anything we can do to predict how and when they will erupt? As the world's population grows, more and more people are living in potentially dangerous volcanic areas. Volcanic eruptions continueas they have throughout historyposing ever-greater threats to life and property.

  • FEMA's Volcano Page A volcano is a mountain that opens downward to a pool of molten rock below the surface of the earth. When pressure builds up, eruptions occur. Gases and rock shoot up through the opening and spill over or fill the air with lava fragments.

    TEXT VERSION
    Introduction (grades 4 - 8)
    *This packet is only available online.
    (From VOLCANOES! Poster. All the images are clickable for larger view.) (Left: Poster Fig. 1) Volcanic eruptions are among the Earth's most powerful and destructive forces. Imagine hearing a volcano erupt thousands of miles away. Imagine looking through binoculars and seeing the top of a mountain collapse. Imagine discovering an ancient Roman city that had been buried in volcanic ash. Volcanoes are also creative forces. The Earth's first oceans and atmosphere formed from the gases given off by volcanoes. In turn, oceans and an atmosphere created the environment that made life possible on our planet. Volcanoes have also shaped the Earth's landscape. Many of our mountains, islands, and plains have been built by volcanic eruptions.
    Why Do Volcanoes Erupt?
    Deep within the Earth it is so hot that some rocks slowly melt and become a thick flowing substance called magma . Because it is lighter than the solid rock around it, magma rises and collects in magma chambers. Eventually some of the magma pushes through vents and fissures in the Earth's surface. A volcanic eruption occurs! Magma that has erupted is called

    Introduction Have you ever seen a volcano erupt? Do you know the location of any volcanoes? Do you know how to make a volcano? Join me for a fun volcanic experience!! The Task Can you answer the following questions?:
    • What is a volcano? When and how do they erupt? Where are the active and inactive volcanoes located? How do I build a model volcano?

    Resources
    The Process
  • Find a partner to work with. Print out or obtain a sheet of the questions from your teacher or print them from this page. Explore the sites under resources and search for the answers. When you have completed researching all 4 questions, pick one volcano and report to the class your findings. As a final project you and your partner will click on projects and choose one of the volcanoes to build.
  • Evaluation When you have completed all research, your report, and the final project, your peers will complete a rubric on your findings.
    Conclusion Although volcanoes are commonly considered natural disasters, they are bearers of new life. It is important to understand that we may not be able to prevent volcanic eruptions, we can study and learn from them in order to detect any future eruptions.

The Institute cannot determine exactly when the next eruption will occur, but we can adivise you on its likely effects. Our scientific analysis provides the vital information needed for thorough planning and will help minimise the impact of future volcanic eruption. We maintain permanent surveillance at active and potentially active volcanoes - the best way to detect the early signs of increasing seismic and volcanic activity.

    VOLCANO BLOWOUT Introduction As part of our 4th grade curriculum, our social studies classes are learning about volcanoes. We wanted to know what makes a volcano erupt and if they are all found in the same places and if they are all the same. We learned that volcanoes are divided into groups according to the way they act each time they erupt and according to their shapes. Earth is made up of three layers, the crust, upper mantle and core. The crust is the outermost layer of rock. It is thin and made of giant plates which float on the upper mantle. The upper mantle is hot, molten rock, which is always moving. It is the pressure in the mantle that forces magma to the surface. The core is the central part of the earth, which is made up mainly of iron. It has an inner core which is solid and an outer core which is liquid and very hot. Volcanic eruptions occur where the magma finds a way through cracks in the earth's crust, usually at the edges of plates. Through our research we found that there are three main types of volcanoes. They are Composite Volcanoes, Cinder Cone Volcanoes and Shield Volcanoes.

    Volcano Field Trip
    Trailhead Teacher's Resources Start Field Trip Volcanoes can be exciting and dangerous. They are also educational since they tell us a lot about the earth and even other planets. The inside of the Earth is very hot. Sometimes, this heat melts through the rock of the earth's crust, sending hot liquid rock (called magma) and gases onto the Earth's surface. A buildup of lava and ash around the area of an eruption becomes a volcano. Volcanoes can erupt for a very brief time or they can erupt many times over millions of years. Sometimes they sleep for long periods and people think they are finished, but they aren't. Mount St Helens was one of these sleeping volcanoes and it surprised everyone when it became active in 1980, causing a lot of destruction and loss of life. Concepts
