Process Essay (B2.1 evening) by Mauricio Acosta https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning en-us 2022-11-23 10:26:54 UTC 2023-05-11 23:42:19 UTC hello@padlet.com Juan Camilo Robles - Himalaya jroblescamilo https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586338363 The Himalayas are a 2,400-kilometer mountain range in southern Asia that separates the northern plains of the Indian subcontinent. But how did these majestic mountains form?

The Himalayas were formed by the collision of two of these plates: the Indian plate and the Eurasian plate. This process began about 50 million years ago and continues to this day.

As the Indian plate began to move north, it approached the Eurasian plate and began to push underneath it. The friction between the two plates caused intense seismic and volcanic activity, and the Earth's crust began to fold and rise.

The first step in the formation of the Himalayas was the creation of a subduction zone where the Indian plate began to sink beneath the Eurasian plate. This caused fusion of the Indian plate material, which then rose to the surface to form a large mountain range.

As the Indian plate continued to move north, it continued to push under the Eurasian plate. The result was intense volcanic and seismic activity that led to the continual uplift of the mountain range. Over time, the Himalayas became one of the highest mountain ranges in the world.

Today, the Himalayas are still forming, but at a much slower rate. The mountain range rises about 5mm per year due to the ongoing tectonic and volcanic activity in the region.

In conclusion, the formation of the Himalayas was the result of the collision of two tectonic plates, which caused intense volcanic and seismic activity that led to the elevation of the mountain range. Although the process began 50 million years ago, tectonic and volcanic activity in the region continues to this day.]]> 2023-05-11 01:49:19 UTC https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586338363 filipehomez https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586345439 2023-05-11 01:55:11 UTC https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586345439 Andes Mountains - TatianaB tatianabravo1006 https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586380699
Andes Mountains are located in South America, specifically are located from Colombia to Argentina. The Andes Mountains are formed in a process called Subduction. This process means that it produces the sinking of a plate, in this case was the collide of two plates and one of them sinks underneath the other plate.

The first stage ocurred when two plates collide . The frist plate was continental (South America) and the second one is an oceanic plate (Nazca); so these two plates move towards each other and they collide. The Nazca plate is more heavier and denser compares with South America plate, for this reason the Nazca plate sinks underneath the Continental plate.

At the same time in the subduction zone its produces magma and this goes on to form a volcano. But as this plate is subducted the rocks that was on the base get pushed up. 

These rocks  with the heat and pressure turns into these large mountains, that we know like Andes Mountains.]]> 2023-05-11 02:20:56 UTC https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586380699 Karol Rodriguez https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586387501 Iceland consists of Nordic islands,
which fom a line in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. It's spectacular landscape with volcanoes, geysers,hoy springs and lava fields are a classic example of a hotspot volcano chain. A hotspot is a place
where magma from .
Deep inside the Earth breaks through in the
middle of a tectonic plate.
The first stage in the formation of the Icelands was
the development of a volcano on the sea floor. Provides a surprisingly mild climate for what Is one with the sea. As more Iceland during the viking age of exploration, for hothouse.

Meanwhile, there was a mass clash, this clash set up a group of seamounts formed 14,000 kilometers separated by a rift called the Atlantic Ridge, which passes right through the center of Iceland magma comes out of that oceanic crack, and new underwater rocks are created.
 that magma was coming out of the sea cracks, the land was being created and giving shape to the island that is now called Iceland, after several millions of years until these happened.
Eventually, that magma was coming out of the sea cracks, and the land was being created and giving shape to the island that is now called Iceland, after several millions of years until these happened.

This process has been repeated for thousands of years and has generated that currently, the tectonic plates of Iceland are constantly moving due to high volcanic activity, creating the highest volcanic activity in the world currently.

The geological future of the country is unpredictable, but we can be sure that Iceland is a unique and unrepeatable territory that is worth knowing]]> 2023-05-11 02:25:30 UTC https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586387501 Karen Sabogal--Islands https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586468370 Islands it's one of the most volcanicly active region and the youngest to. Are in the middle of two tectonics plate, are North-American Plate and Eurasian plate the continent on the see floor as Chrosed.
The first stage are the both plates in slowling and segmental movement rocks. In addition generated a hotspots, metal clombs are also active.
At the same the tectonic plates in a south of the Island the tourists will be to see the eruption of the volcan Eyjafjallajökull was eruption firts one on 2010.
Over of millon of changes, be the climate change produce that chroshed the rain with the volvano movement.
Meanwhile, Island have another volcanoes most are in constantly movement.]]> 2023-05-11 03:25:25 UTC https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2586468370 Iceland - Nicolas Chicuazuque. nicolas1010223 https://padlet.com/tmauricioaeng/finalessayb21morning/wish/2587163578 Iceland is one of the most Volcanicle island in all the world, is located in the middle is located under two tectonic plates the north american plate and the eurasian plate. Also Iceland is near to Groenlandia and its one of the coldest place in world. Continue with the comments before, Iceland has a lot of volcanos and in 2010 people in island had a big problem with it, but not just people in islan people in many parts of world.

The reasons why Island is a Volcanicle place its because due to the ubication many volcanos had been grown, and through the tectonic plate, cooled contact with sea, and formen this volcanos. As more magma broke through, the mountain grew taller, and eventually its top emerged out became in a volcano.

One time in 2010 a volcano erupted creating a huge cloud of smoke which affected millions of people.

This place is a classic example of hot springs and geysers. Hot springs are underground water that are heated due to contact with volcanic rocks and geysers are special hot springs that experience periodic eruptions of hot water and steam.

 
The first stage of the Island formation was the volcanic activity between two tectonic plates, the North American Plate and the Eurasian Plate. The tectonic activity between this plate have made the earth's crust thin, which has allowed the magma and the heat of it to come to the surface.


At the same time that the tectonic activity takes place, the magma comes up to the surface to fill up the space created by the plate separation. This process over many thousand years creates a large quantity of active volcanoes on the Island, mountains and glaciers.

Over 20 millions of years, this tectonic activity was repeated many times giving the Island geography as a result, where it is expected to have volcanic activity each four years.

In 2010 the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano erupted after 190 years of inactivity, this natural process attracted tourists and generated a massive ash that reached 10 km of atmosphere affecting the air traffic of some flights from Europe.


Meanwhile, Island is taking its normal course, the Islan authorities works closely with Scientists and experts to monitor the geological activity and develop emergency plans in case of eruptions and earthquake’s to protect its population.
