ENDOGENIC-PROCESSES.pptx

  1. 1. Endogenic Proccess
  2. 2. • Endogenic processes are geological processes that occur beneath the surface of the earth. • It is associated with energy originating in the interior of the solid earth. • The ground we live on is moving all the time, the forces within the earth that cause the ground to move are called Endogenic process.
  3. 3. Endogenic Processes • Folding & Faulting • Heat in the Earth’s Interior • Magmatism • Metamorphism • Volcanism & Plutonism
  4. 4. Folding & Faulting • Folding- when two forces push towards each other from opposite sides, the rock layers will bend into folds. • Faulting- faulting is the fracturing and displacement of more brittle rock strata along a fault plane either caused by tension or compression.
  5. 5. Interior Heat • Primordial Heat- Heat generated during earth’s formation. Sources: Accretion Energy- Heat released from collision of planetary objects during the early formation of planets. Core Formation Energy- Heat from earth’s core. Radioactive Heat- Heat generated by long term radioactive decay.
  6. 6. Magmatism • It happens when magma generated and develops into ingneous rocks.
  7. 7. Mid-Oceanic Ridges • The rising of magma in mantle convection cell brings heat to the suface, transferring heat to the overlying rocks.
  8. 8. Mid Oceanic Ridges • The transfer of heat due to the convection is accompanied by a decrease in pressure or decompression associated with the spreadibg of the tectonic plates.
  9. 9. Mantle Plumes • The transfer of heat and the compression result to magma generation.
  10. 10. Subduction Zone • Oceanic crustal rocks ate formed along spreading centers, typically beneath several kilometers of sea water.
  11. 11. Metamorphism • It is the process of changing materials that make up the rock, the chemical components and gealogic characteristics of the rocks change because of exposure to heat & pressure.
  12. 12. Compression • Rocks push or squeeze against on another where the stress produced is directed towards the center.
  13. 13. Tension • Pulled apart rocks may separate in opposite direction.
  14. 14. Shearing • Some of the portion of a plate at the edge may break away in different directions. Eventually makit the plate smaller inside.
  15. 15. Confining • The crust become compact. Thus making it look smaller.
  16. 16. Volcanism Plutonism- is the formation of intrusive igneous rock by solidification of magma beneath the earth’s surface. Volcanism- is the phenomenon of eruption of molten rocks ( magma) onto the surface of the earth or a solid suface planet. Volcano- a volcano is a vent or opening on planet’s surface which allows molten rocks called magma, volcanic ash and gas to escape out onto its surface. Tectonic Plates- most volcanoes are formed by the movement of tectonic plates on the suface of the earth.
  17. 17. • The edge of the tectonic plates are the areas where most volcanoes form. • Crater- funnel shaped pit at the top of a volcano, it is formed when materials are blown out of the volcano by explosion. • Caldera- whem the volcano collapses due to an empty magma chamber.
  18. 18. Types of volcano • Composite volcano • Cinder cone volcano • Shield Volcanoes
  19. 19. Composite Volcanoes • Composite volcanoes often form the largest and tallest volcanoes, they are the most explosive and dangerous of the types of volcanoes.
  20. 20. Cinder Cone Volcano • It is usually smaller than composite volcano amd the eruptions are smaller also, they form into steep cone shaped hills.
  21. 21. Gas and Pyroclastic • Most of the gas released during eruption is water vapor carbon dioxied, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and hydrochloric acid, are given off in lesser amount of surface water introduced into a volcanic system can greatly increase the explosivity of an eruption.
  22. 22. Types of Volcanic Eruptions. • Hawaiian Eruption • Strombolian Eruption • Volcanian Eruption • Pinian Eruption
  23. 23. Types of Lava flow • Pahoehoe • AA • Pillow Lava • Blocky
