[Inferred: Discuss recent volcanic eruptions and the phenomenon of vulcanism - processes and manifestations]
Introduction
Recent volcanic eruptions in Italy and Hawaii have gained attention towards the phenomenon of vulcanism
15 words
Main Body
Processes in Volcanisms:
1Magma from the magma chamber finds its way to the mouth of the volcano, and comes out as lava
2Often heat is also released in the form of geyser
3Old Faithful, USA, [and hot springs]
4Ness Karen, mineral
5Vulcanism also leads to earth flows like LAHAR
Setting of Major Volcanic Erupts:
1Nearly 2/3 of volcanic activities occur around the "Ring of fire" which is at the junction/ pacific plate on one side and north american & south american & eurasian plates on the west side, along with eurasian & indo-australian plate on the east side.
The convergent nature of plate boundaries leads to vulcanism
2[Subduction zone/region] Along the boundary of eurasian vs indo australian & opician plate is another convergent boundary with lots of volcanic activity
3rift Ema, Italy → lighthouse of mediterranean
