Vesuvius vs Mount St. Helens Would you rather have been in Pompeii or Washington during their eruptions? It would be a hard choice because they were both destructive. They are kinda alike in some ways. However, they were both very different from each other. From Pompeii, Italy to Skamania County, Washington are two of the deadliest volcanoes. Firstly, they do have some things in common. To get the obvious one out of the way, they were both volcanoes. Although, they are not just volcanos, but

is indeed not. In fact, the people of Pompeii were very unlucky when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. Nearly two-thousand people died. Although that eruption was very similar to the 1980 eruption of Saint Helens, it was also very different. The two Stratovolcanoes, Mt. Vesuvius and St. Helens, have many traits in common. For example, when these two volcanoes erupted, they both made a huge ash cloud. Also, they both began with harmonic tremors, which are small earthquakes, that includes the venting

Almost a century later, Mount Saint Helens, located in the state of Washington, erupted at 8:30 a.m., on May 18, 1980. Although Mount Saint Helens and Krakatoa had a lot of distance from each other, they were both composite volcanoes. Composite volcanoes produce a thick lava that causes a lot of damage. When Krakatoa erupted, scientists were

Mt. St. Helens was a 5.1 magnitude earthquake in 1980 and was one of the biggest earthquakes. While the documentary “Mt. At. Helens: Back from the Dead” and the poem “Loo-wit” both have powerful descriptions of the eruption, the writers have different purposes. First, “Mt. St. Helens: Back from the Dead, a documentary, was made to inform readers about the eruption in 1980. The author uses numerical data to show readers accurate and specific information. Once the eruption had started, we find out

Mount Saint Helen The theory of the continental drift is that the continents have slowly drifted to their current location. Alfred Wegener believed that all the seven continents were once a supercontinent known as Pangea. A discovery that came from climate clues like glacial deposits in South America, Africa, Australia and India. Rock and fossils matching evidence found in South America and Africa. The theory of plate tectonics states that Earth’s outer shell is divided into plates. The crust and

there are three groups of them, dormant, extinct and active volcanoes. From the latter group there are about 500 in the entire world. Although both Mt. St Helens and Mt Pinatubo are two of the most significant volcanoes in the world, they have some characteristics that show their differences and similarities between both of them. Mt. St Helens and Mt. Pinatubo have some common qualities that can put them in equal standing. First of all, the most significant eruptions occurred in the 20 th century

Albert Bierstadt was a painter most remembered for his dramatic and large masterpieces that focused on extreme color and contrast, especially with lighting. However, when it comes to his painting, Mt. Hood, Oregon, he tends to defy those preconceived ideas. Painted in the early 1860’s, this painting is representative of Bierstadt’s earlier artwork. He uses lighter brushstrokes, a brighter and more monochromatic color palette, and is depicting a minimalist scene in its natural state (Figure 1). The

The Forest Service scientists and collaborators were on the edges of the volcano within 2 weeks of the eruption collecting information and making observations of the volcano and the areas ecology - learning about things science has not had the chance to learn about until this time. Listed below are a few of the things that the eruption of Mount St. Helens has taught taught scientists: ● This was the first time this type of

Topographic Assessment of Taylor Mountain Regional Park The purpose of this assessment is to understand all topographic factors concerning the past, present, and future of Taylor Mountain Regional Park. The site is 4 acres in size and is located in Taylor Mountain Regional Park and Open Space Preserve. The coordinates of the site, according to the USGS 1954 Santa Rosa Quadrangle Map, are N 38 degrees 24 minutes and 30 seconds, W 122 degrees 41 minutes and 25 seconds (Figure 2). The entrance to the

The Iliad by Homer is about the Trojan War fought by the Achaeans and Trojans which was over the capturing of the wife of King Menelaus, Helen of Troy, by Paris. In The Canterbury Tales by Chaucer, it is about a group of 29 people who are all on a pilgrimage to Canterbury to worship St. Thomas’s shrine; however, as Chaucer describes all these types of people not many of them are very religious and the stories they tell show the perspective and portrayal of women
