I did this report for my third grade Science Fair in March 1998. I made a volcano model which really erupted by using baking soda and vinegar. When the baking soda and vinegar combine, they create a gas similar to the gas which causes volcanoes to erupt. I have included the recipe I used for the erupting volcano model. Volcanology Geology is the study of the earth.
Volcanology is a branch of geology that studies volcanoes.
Scientists who study volcanoes are called Volcanologists. Volcanology is a new science that started in the early 20th century. Volcano observatories were built in Japan and Hawaii. These observatories monitor the world's volcanoes. They study active volcanoes during eruptions.
