There are several types of volcanoes, and these types depend upon the geologic setting in which you find them as well as the chemistry of the magma that feeds them. Today, we began our brief exploration of volcanoes. I say brief, because by the end of next week, we will be finishing this chapter. But, not before we've had the opportunity to explore a number of historically significant eruptions, as well as learn a bit about their chemistry, setting, and hazards.
Those of you who missed the notes due to the field trip, be sure to download them! They're rather minimalist this time...but with a little reading, I believe that none of you will have any problem interpreting them!
