        1. Volcanoes appear where tectonic plates meet
          1. Volcanoes can spew out lava, hot ash, steam and smoke
          2. Predictions?
            1. Geologists study volcanoes and the earths crust to try and guess when an eruption will take place
              1. Warnings
                1. Increase in volcanic temp
                  1. High levers of sulphur near volcano
                    1. Minor earthquakes take place
                  2. Advantages
                    1. Brings in tourists to see the dramatic scenery
                      1. Very nutrient soil is very good for crops
                        1. Very good place for the renewable source of geothermal energy
                        2. Disadvantages
                          1. Volcanoes can cost lives
                            1. Landscapes can be lost or damaged forever
                              1. The ash mixed with rain can create mudslides
