82. Earthquakes And Volcanoes
Finally, the granddaddy of all natural disasters, collision of Earth withsome extraterrestrial object, has been shown to alter our entire world.

Earth's Untamed Energy:
Earthquakes and Volcanoes
In this lecture, we learn:
  • What is the difference between the intensity and the magnitude of an earthquake? What are seismic waves and what information do they give us about earthquakes when they have been recorded by a seismograph? How does temperature change with increasing depth in the Earth? What are the mechanisms by which magma is formed? What types of material are ejected by volcanoes?

Natural Hazards
It hardly needs to be said that natural hazards have devastating effects on society. The death and destruction associated with earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis (tidal waves), hurricanes and other natural phenomena is unbelievably large. Beside the tragedy of loss of human life, natural hazards increasingly take their toll on the economies of nations. Take the US, for example, where one or more natural phenomena always threaten. Life in California occurs in the shadow of major earthquake threats. Activity along the San Andreas Fault, which passes through several major cosmopolitan areas, is a classic example. Elsewhere along the Pacific coast of the US, volcanic activity is an additional threat. The eruption of Mt. St Helen's in Washington State occurred in an isolated area, with relatively minor loss of human life. An eruption of Mt Rainier, on the other hand, poses a major threat. Along the East coast, the on-land arrival of hurricanes devastates coastal areas, including cities. Even the relatively quiescent interior regions of the US have their share of problems. Tornadoes appear unexpectedly and work their terror quickly, while flooding of major river systems occurs on a regular basis.

Sixth Century volcano 'wiped out Bolton'
A KILLER disease triggered by a Sixth Century volcano devastated Bolton and revolutionised the North-west, an historian has claimed. David Keys, author of a study into the origins of the modern world, believes the eruption created the first known outbreak of the deadly bubonic plague. This led to a population vacuum in Bolton which was filled by tribes from southern Yorkshire - resulting in Anglo-Saxon expansion, the foundation of England and the birth of English in the North West. The findings are in his book called 'Catastrophe: an Investigation into the Origins of the Modern World', to be shown in a two-part programme on Channel 4 in July and August.

87. Educational Software
The children can then travel in time. They can also experiment with volcanoes and earthquakes. Shifts of seasons and disasters add challenges.
http://www.sil.org/ched/edsoft.html

April 1998
Several educational organizations choose judges to review the newest products available in educational software, according to such criteria as: the quality of presentation and design, the educational value, ease of use, play life, value for the money, and other factors of importance to educators and parents. Along with the judges' evaluation, I studied a summary of the contents of each program together with the judges' assessment of the program's strengths and weaknesses. Included is my list of some of the highest rated programs in the reviews. Besides the judges' evaluations I also looked at other factors such as price, age groups, and the date the software was produced. I attempted to differentiate programs written strictly for school use from those in the home learning category and chose to focus on the home learning products. Many could be used in either setting. I did not personally review each program. This may be a limitation, however, I think the best reviewers would be the children and teachers who actually use the programs. If any of you have used any of the programs listed (or others) and are willing to share your experiences, please send them to me at CHED (e-mail address on home page) so that I may share your evaluations with parents desiring information. We will be attempting to keep these recommendations as current as possible Software included in the earlier version, CHED Recommended Software for Children and Youth, compiled by Neal Peterson, is repeated in this review if it is still considered valuable or if there is a highly rated upgrade. Many are still considered good additions to any collection of educational software. Another source of information is

Backgrounder: Volcanoes EMERGENCY INFORMATION
  • Volcanic ash can affect people hundreds of miles away from the cone of a volcano. Several of the deaths from the Mount St. Helens volcano in 1980 were attributed to inhalation of ash. Volcanic ash can contaminate water supplies, cause electrical storms, and collapse roofs.
    An erupting volcano can also trigger tsunamis, flash floods, earthquakes, rockfalls, and mudflows.
    Sideways directed volcanic explosions, known as "lateral blasts," can shoot large pieces of rock at very high speeds for several miles. These explosions can kill by impact, burial, or heat. They have been known to knock down entire forests. The majority of deaths attributed to the Mount St. Helens volcano were a result of lateral blast and tree blow-down.
  • DANGER ZONES Volcanic eruptions are most likely in the Pacific Rim states of Hawaii, Alaska, Washington, Oregon, and California. The chance of eruptions that could damage populated areas is the greatest for the active volcanoes of Hawaii and Alaska. Active volcanoes of the Cascade Mountain Range in California, Oregon, and Washington have created problems recently. The danger area around a volcano covers approximately a 20-mile radius. Some danger may exist 100 miles or more from a volcano, leaving Montana and Wyoming at risk.

    Second volcano menaces Congolese town of Goma Mail this story to a friend Printer friendly version UNITED NATIONS: February 28, 2002
    UNITED NATIONS - Volcanologists warned that a second volcano may soon erupt near Goma, threatening the Congolese town with new lava flows and an unleashing of toxic gases now trapped beneath a nearby lake.
    Volcanologists from the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs and the Goma Observatory for Volcanology said they had detected a dramatic increase in seismic activity of the Nyamuragira volcano, located to the northwest of Goma. Goma lies on the Democratic Republic of Congo's eastern border with Rwanda and is close to neighboring Uganda, Burundi and Tanzania.

    Earthquakes and Volcanoes
    Unit overview
    Although earthquakes and volcanoes are violent events capable of causing much destruction and terror, there is a fascination about them that makes this an interesting area of study. The use of videotape, pictures, and newspaper accounts can help bring to life some aspects of these phenomena, which, fortunately, are unknown to most Saskatchewan students.
    In this unit, students consider the causes and effects of earthquakes and volcanoes. In grade 8, the evidence for the plate tectonic theory, including earthquake and volcano zones, will be considered in more depth. Discuss with the students the use of historical evidence as well as data collected today in understanding earthquakes and volcanoes, but don't deal at length with plate tectonics. Review the unit outline and the objectives of the grade 8 unit The Moving Crust before planning this unit. Science writing and reading activities, as discussed in this Guide, should be incorporated into each lesson. Writing advertisements, letters to parents, and newspaper editorials about the activities and discoveries of science class are only three strategies through which students may refine their understanding of the concepts of science and develop their ability to communicate through the written word. Activities including writing components are found in the Suggested activities section of this unit.
