EAS 10600 #M Group A

Sorry for the error, I just rubmitted my answers

As discussed with our group member and rereading my observations. I’ve realized many new unique series of volcanoes and earthquake, topography and seafloor-age. It was difficult for me to predict any of the age of the seafloor. Weather its faster or slower than others. Everything else was pretty much simple and clear.

I have realized I s…[Read more]

I completely agree with Brian that after reading all of our group’s observations on the patterns of volcanoes, earthquakes, topography, and seafloor age in relation to plate boundaries, it becomes clear that our boundary classifications should be divided into three distinct categories. Ocean-ocean, ocean-continent, and continent-continent are the…[Read more]

I believe we can all agree that plate boundaries are where volcanoes and earthquakes occur. We’ve all noticed that the distribution of volcanoes and earthquakes differs in that certain plate boundaries, such as the Pacific Plate, have more volcanoes and earthquakes than other plates. Furthermore, volcanoes and earthquakes follow different…[Read more]

There are four different topics which the Lab 3 assignment was based on. Volcanoes, Earthquakes, Topography and Seafloor-age. When comparing with the reports of the peers of this lab, it has become paramount that the plate boundaries are dynamic, each plate shares its boundary with multiple other plates and all the volcanic or earthquake…[Read more]

After reviewing my peers and my Lab 3, I can observe that some boundary classifications are very similar. The main ideas outlines all throughout Lab 3 is that volcanoes seem to be linear along plate boundaries. Earthquakes seem to be clustered and spread out evenly along the plate boundaries. There’s an elevation of about 0 along the plate…[Read more]

After taking some time to read other peoples observations and my observations there seems to be certain patterns that occur with earthquakes, volcanoes, topography and seafloor age. With earthquakes it looks like everyone had the same idea with it being linear to the tectonic plate map. Also that seem to occur anywhere tectonic plates meet. For…[Read more]

As I was reading your lab, it reminded of one time where I bought balloons with helium in them. I remember that day it was freezing Cold and I notice my balloons started to deflate or it seem to me that way, so I went back to the store to get a refund and the lady at the cashier explained to me that because it’s cold the helium compresses t…[Read more]

I’m guessing this is also why there seems to be ice on the very bottom of snow pilled up on the sidewalks. The impurities on the bottom, on the sidewalk, cause the snow to form ice?

I’ve also made the same observation before but never bothered to research it! Interesting to read about the polar jet streams have something to do with it.

As I was walking over to my car on Saturday, I noticed that on all the cars in our driveway seemed to have low tire pressure in atleast one tire. My hypothesis for this was that the cold weather causes tire to deflate a little. I observed that on most of our cars, the tires only seemed slightly deflated, about 2-3 psi of air. To test this…[Read more]
