What landforms do lava and ash create?
How does magma that hardens beneath the surface create landforms?
THE BIG IDEA
![Page 6: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Sheild volcano – a wide, gently sloping mountain made of layers of lava; formed by quiet eruptions
Cinder cone – a steep, cone-shaped hill or small mountain made of volcanic ash, cinders, and bombs
Composite volcano – a tall, cone-shaped mountain in which layers of lava and ash alternate
Caldera – the large hole at the top of a volcano formed when the roof of a magma chamber collapses

Volcanic neck – hardened magma in a volcano’s pipe
Dike – a slab of volcanic rock formed when magma forces itself across rock layers
Sill – a slab of volcanic rock formed when magma squeezes between layers of rock
Intrusion – an igneous rock layer formed when magma hardens beneath Earth’s surface
Batholith – a mass of rock formed when a large body of magma cools inside the crust

VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS
![Page 9: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Volcanic eruptions create landforms made of lava, ash, and other materials
Include shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, composite volcanoes, and lava plateaus
LANDFORMS FROM LAVA AND ASH
![Page 10: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
At some places on Earth’s surface, thin layers of lava pour out of a vent and harden on top of previous layers
These gradually build a wide, gently sloping mountain called a shield volcano
Shield volcanoes created the Hawaiian Islands
SHIELD VOLCANOES
![Page 11: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
If a volcano’s lava is high in silica, it may produce:AshCindersBombs
These materials build up around the vent in a steep, cone-shaped hill or small mountain called a cinder cone
CINDER CONE VOLCANOES
![Page 12: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Sometimes lava flows alternate with explosive eruptions of ash, cinder, and bombs
The result is a composite volcano
Tall, cone-shaped mountains in which layers of lava alternate with layers of ash
Examples: Mount Fuji in Japan Mount Shasta in California
COMPOSITE VOLCANOES
![Page 13: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Some eruptions form high, level areas called lava plateaus
First, lava flows out of several long cracks or fissures
Then, thin/runny lava travels far before cooling and solidifying
This happens over and over again
After millions of years, these layers form high plateaus
LAVA PLATEAUS
![Page 14: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The huge hole left by the collapse of a volcanic mountain is called a caldera Filled with pieces of volcano that have fallen inward, as
well as some lava and ash
Form when enormous eruptions empty the main vent and the magma chamber becomes a hollow shell With nothing to support it, the top of the mountain
collapses
View figure 13 on page 232 of your textbook
CALDERAS
![Page 15: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
People often settle close to volcanoes to take advantage of the fertile volcanic soil
Over time, the hard surface of the lava breaks down to form soilAs it breaks down, it releases potassium, phosphorus, and other substances that plants need
Some volcanic soils are among the richest soils in the world
SOILS FROM LAVA AND ASH
![Page 16: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Sometimes magma forces its way through cracks in the upper crust, but fails to reach the surface
The magma cools and hardens into rock
Over time, the forces that wear away Earth’s surface (wind, flowing water, ice) may strip away the layers above the hardened magma and finally expose it
LANDFORMS FROM MAGMA

Features formed by magma include volcanic necks, dikes, sills, and batholiths
LANDFORMS FROM MAGMA
![Page 18: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
A volcanic neck looks like a giant tooth stuck in the ground
Forms when magma hardens in a volcano’s pipe
The softer rock around the pipe wears away, exposing the hard rock of the volcanic neck
VOLCANIC NECKS
![Page 19: Science ~ chapter 6 volcanoes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816464550346895dd646bb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Magma can force its way across or between rock layers
Magma that forces itself across rock layers hardens into a dike
When magma squeezes between horizontal layers of rock, it forms a sill
Dikes and sills are examples of igneous intrusions An intrusion is always younger than the rocks around it
DIKES AND SILLS

What are two ways in which mountains can form as a result of magma hardening beneath Earth’s surface?Mountains can form when uplift forces hardened magma to bend rock upward, and is then exposed as the hardened magma wears away.
After millions of years, what landform forms from hardened magma in the pipe of an extinct volcano?A landform that would form from hardened magma in the pipe of an extinct volcano after millions of years is a volcanic neck.
