Volcanoes

How Volcanoes Work  Sponsored by NASA, this website does more than explain “how volcanoes work.”  It also highlights six historical eruptions: Mt. Pelee, Mt. St. Helen’s, Lake Nyos, Nevada del Ruiz, Paricutin, Krakatau, and Santorini.   The site also has a fabulous Volcano Links page which offers links to volcanoes around the world.  Scroll down to find links to specific volcanoes under the following headings: United States and Canada, Atlantic and Caribbean, Europe, Central and South America, Africa, Australia and New Zealand and the western Pacific.  If you scroll down the page even further, you will find links to video cam sites and (even further down) Virtual Field Trips to selected volcanoes.

Volcano World offers a wealth of information on the world’s volcanoes.  Search the site or use the index to find what you are looking for.

Marshall Cavendish Trial - this database includes excellent articles from such sources as Exploring Earth and Space Science, Growing Up With Science, How it Works, and Earth and Physical Science to name a few.  Ask your librarian for the user name and password

The Hawaiian Volcanoes Observatory  provides information on a number of individual volcanoes in the Hawaiian Islands.

Volcanoes: Can we Predict Volcanic Eruptions?

 Search the US Geological Survey for information on volcanoes in the United States and around the world.
