Answer:
Hi...
Explanation:
They can cause rain, thunder and lightning. Volcanoes can also have long-term effects on the climate, making the world cooler. Fast-moving lava can kill people and falling ash can make it hard for them to breathe. They can also die from famine, fires and earthquakes which can be related to volcanoes.
What effects do volcanoes have?
Volcanoes can change the weather. They can cause rain, thunder and lightning. Volcanoes can also have long-term effects on the climate, making the world cooler.
Fast-moving lava can kill people and falling ash can make it hard for them to breathe. They can also die from famine, fires and earthquakes which can be related to volcanoes. People can lose their possessions as volcanoes can destroy houses, roads and fields.
Lava can kill plants and animals too. The Mount St Helens volcano in 1980 killed an estimated 24,000 animals including 11,000 hares, 6,000 deer, 300 bobcats, 200 black bears and 15 mountain lions.
Can we predict when a volcano is going to erupt?
Scientists who specialise in volcanoes are called volcanologists.
They are getting better at predicting volcanoes. The most reliable method is listening to the 'rumbles' inside a grumbling mountain.
They also look at the changes in the gases which come out of volcanic mountains, the angle of the slopes, and bizarrely, the behaviour of animals in the area.
Animals often seem to be able to 'detect' when an eruption is coming, and they become agitated and worried.
Which volcano has killed the most people?
The volcano eruption in Tambora, Indonesia, in 1815, killed around 92,000 people.
The eruption sent fiery ash into the stratosphere, which cooled the world climate for more than a year.
In some parts of the world, that year is called 'the year without a summer' because it was so cool. Tambora also destroyed crops, and led to disease and water contamination.
