As I was looking through the map of volcanology, I notice that south america has a big amount of volcanoes near the coasts and right besides in the pacific ocean. The volcanoes of south america are part of the Pacific Ring of Fire. South America has one of the highest active volcano in the world that lies along the Argentina-Chile border. Comparing it with the South American Plate, the west side of South america experiences earthquakes due to the plate tectonic boundaries but the eastern edge still lies at a divergent boundary.

According to the Volcanology map, there are areas near the coasts that have high amounts of volcanic activity. There are also high amounts of volcanic activity in the island regions. When comparing the Volcanology maps with the map of the Eurasian Plate boundaries, the boundry and the major spots of volcanic activity line up almost exactly. The areas where high volcanic activity is present nearly perfectly coincide with the boundary lines between plates according to the volcanic activity near the east side of the Eurasian plate. (Same as the most recent post. I forgot to log in).

Looking at the map for geochronology I found that the world as a whole has more red and orange tones which shows the landmasses are relatively young versus the little amount of blue tones which indicate older landmasses. Also, looking at the South American plate I found it has more red tones which indicates that it a fairly young with some blue tones going along the edge showing that some of it is relatively older compared to the rest of the continent.

On this map it shows lots of mountains and elevated land on the west coastline. There is a low elevation surrounding the North American plate. The elevation on the North American plate varies because of all the shifts that happened underneath the surface. The tectonic plates move and create volcanos which then erupt and form the mountain ranges we are able to see on this map.

I noticed that there was a substantial amount of volcanoes on the west coast of the North American Plate which makes sense as it touches the pacific plate forming the ring of fire. These could be two divergent plate boundaries that would explain the volcanoes and San Andreas fault.

I chose to do seismology and what if found on thee world view was there was much activity on the coast and round africa. if you go more around the Philippines and other places what we see is a lot of minimal activity but that also compares to a great amount of activity in other places around those islands. Over all i chose the African plate and with where the earthquakes happen it mostly outlines a set of Africa in the fact of that is lines up eye to eye with a plate boundary witch is where the activity mostly comes from, but you can also have places with underwater activity from volcanoes or plate movement

# data[].attributes.body
Near the African plate there is a cluster of volcanos and volcanic action spotted. In East Africa there is a thick vertical line of red dots. This indicates that there is a large amount of volcanos there and that the tectonic plates probably have a greater impact on these areas. The rest of the plate just has random small scattered volcanos.

Across the world, there are many different levels of earthquakes resulting in a large (red) sized  earthquake and a smaller (green) sized earthquakes. There is a common pattern occurring, which  is that there a high level of larger earthquakes on and around the different fault lines around the world, as well as smaller earthquakes, surrounding the fault lines, and magnitudes aren’t as big. On the North American plate there are a high level of large sized earthquakes occurring on the left side of the continent. This is due to the running San Andreas fault that lies on this continent. As well as the line of red, high level earthquakes, there are smaller, green sized earthquakes felt around the state of Alaska which surround those larger felt earthquakes.

There is a line of recurring volcanoes that is on the border of the the African plate. It is clear from the map that volcanoes usually occur near the plate boundaries. There is also many hotspots of volcanoes that occurred on the coast lines as well.

# data[].attributes.body
I found that there was a lot of concentrated volcanic activity along the west cost. Along the coast there is a subduction zone due to the Pacific plate sliding under the North American plate. The west coast is along the Ring of Fire where lots of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur.

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed that there are lots of volcanoes in the western side of america near california, oregan, and washington. The line of volcanoes continues and goes all the way to to canada and curves off the coast in the pacific ocean following the tectonic plate underneath it.

# data[].attributes.body
On a global scale you can see the Ring of Fire lining up with the tectonic plates. On the map of North America you can see the the Western side by the Pacific Ocean. The pattern of high mountains near the coast with low land next to sea level runs all the way from South America through Alaska.

I noticed while looking at the Volcanic map that the Volcanoes that appear in South Africa are towards the boarder of Chile. As well as near the boarder of Mexico. The high level Earthquakes are more or so near the boarder of Chile. The Red represents the amount of Earthquakes that occur in that specific area and how large they are. The bigger the dot the larger the Earthquake. This shows that the Plate boundaries are converging near the South African Plate boundary.

Geochronology on the African and South American plate

# data[].attributes.body
Looking at the presented data, an interesting formation is found along the ocean floor of the African and South American plate, it makes a trail of red that disperses into yellow, then green, and then blue along its sides. It can be concluded that this is because the plate boundaries are converging and is pushing the ocean floor upwards, creating a "reverse ridge" of sorts.

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed that most of the volcanoes were on the west coast due to the converging oceanic and continental plates that create volcanoes on top of the subduction zone. On other plates, volcanoes are mainly found around the pacific ocean plate and where it meets continental boundaries. Although, in Africa there is a divergent boundary that creates many volcanoes by pushing up the earth on either side. Almost all volcanoes are on fault lines, maybe expect for hotspots like Hawaii. -Nicole M

I notice that most of the volcanoes in South America was mostly near the water. Mostly in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru,and  Chile  which is mainly in the eastern side of South America.

I noticed that mainly volcanos are located on the west side of the country and are heavy in california, oregon, and washington. The trail of volcanos go all the way up to canada staying to the very west side and eventually into the specific ocean.

On a global scale the appearance of the volcanoes are noticed to be near two converging faults, near the "Ring of Fire", Looking at the North American fault, there are many volcanoes towards to west coast, near california and higher creating the northern half of the ring of fire.

On the Geochronology map, the Australian plate's edges have the youngest crusts that get older as you look closer to Australia itself. The entire plate looks to be relatively young, lacking any blue hues at all. With the oldest crust shown by cooler colors, green and blue, only small sections of the Australian plate are a bit older, with shades of lime green.

# data[].attributes.body
On the world scale, most volcanos are clumped together on or near plate boundaries. The Australian plate also follows this pattern as most volcanos are along the Eurasian and Pacific plates.

There are very pronounced elevated plate boundaries near the coastlines of Asia and South America, but there are also elevated plate boundaries in the middle of the oceans, right between some continents, such as Africa/South America, and North America/Europe. As for the North American plate, there is a very large spike in mountain ranges, and generally high elevation, near the west coast, particularly in the U.S. and Mexico.

Geochronology is the study of figuring out the age of rocks,sediments,and fossils.On the map, specifically on the the pacific plate there is a row of red, green, yellow,and light green.The red indicates the youngest area of rocks,fossils etc.while the light green is almost middle aged rocks.The oldest form of rocks that can be found are identified by the the color dark blue which is not included on the pacific plate.

A trend of volcanoes is apparent in the lines of certain plates, specifically continental plates. the plates that form together allows the magma to compress and rise up to the surface. this is particularly relevant to the pacific plate as it borders several continents.

On the geographical map, we can see where all of the mountains are, and they are mostly elevated at the coasts, almost connecting to other continents, which was caused by Pangea. You can also see the depths of each ocean and that the Artic Ocean is relatively shallow compared to the other oceans.

# data[].attributes.body
On the geographical map, we can observe that elevated land tends to be near the coast more times than not. We also can observe that mountain ranges tend to be clustered, even across continents. In regards to the ocean, we see that there are not many mountain ranges in the South Atlantic and Southern Ocean and that the Ocean is very deep. The Artic Ocean on the other hand, has a much shallower ocean.

A lot of color like light blue,, Dark blue, Green, yellows, oranges and red. The colors kind of follow this pattern in certain areas a lot of the orange and red are together and its usually in the middle of each plate the pacific has a lot of red and oranges in the middle and the green and yellow are on the outside also hint of blue on outside (Light)( did it twice on accident )

A global trend for volcanic activity is that most of it is concentrated on the edge of continents with sporadic spotting in the oceanic areas. In addition, most activity falls in narrow lines that follow the boundaries of the continents. This applies to the North American plate because it follows the same trend. Most of the volcanic activity is in a line following the west plate boundary. Also on the east side of the plate there are a few volcanoes spotted throughout the ocean.

I see more volcanology meaning red dots concentrated in the west coast particularly California, Washington, and Oregon. For the world, there are more concentrated near by east Asia where small islands are there including Japan, Malaysia, and Singapore.

When subduction occurs, a chain of volcanoes often develops near the convergent plate boundary. One such chain of volcanoes can be found on the western coast of the United States, spanning across the states of California, Oregon, and Washington. A divergent plate boundary often forms a mountain chain known as a ridge.
