Renowned for its wild and rugged landscapes, Alaska is home to lots of spectacular scenery, with endless forests found alongside towering mountain ranges. As the state lies on the Pacific Ring of Fire (a very seismically active region) it also boasts more than 40 active volcanoes, with many ...
Volcanoes are most commonly found alongtectonic plate boundaries, where the Earth's plates are moving apart or grinding together.The Ring of Firearound the Pacific Ocean is home to about 90% of the world's active volcanoes. However, volcanoes can also be found in the middle of plates, where...
The first day consists mainly of a mapping activity, where the students are provided with a map of the world that shows the locations of several volcanoes and isoverlain with the tectonic plate boundaries. The students will label (in color) the different types of volcanoes and plate boundaries...
