There are volcanoes in the Caribbean. Soufriere Hills in Montserrat expels ash periodically since a major eruption in 1997. Soufriere in St. Vincent erupted about 30 years ago. La Soufriere in St. Lucia still bubbles and has sulphur pools. Dominica and Guadeluope are volcanic in origin, as are mst of the islands of the Lesser Antilles. In Trinidad there are mud volcanoes. Under the ocean in the Grenadines is an active volcano caled Kick-'em-Jenny by the locals.

What seismic features are found near volcanoes?
What other seismic features are found near volcanoes
Is basalt found under water and by volcanoes?
yes. some types of basalt is found of volcanoes.
Can minerals be found in volcanoes?
where are minerals located where thier are volcanoes or trenches
Where are earthquakes and volcanoes typically found?
Earhquakes and volcanoes are typically found near the edges of tectonic plates.
Do composite volcanoes have viscous lava?
Volcanoes are named after the lava that comes out.viscous volcanoes (or acid and dome) are the same thing.the lava comes to the surface close to subduction zones,which are found at convergent plate boundaries.it is high in silica content and does not flow easily.it contains gas which cannot escape easily,so eruptions may be explosive and violent.eg Caribbean volcanoes
Why is there no volcanoes in the middle of the Caribbean sea?
The middle of the Caribbean Sea is over the middle of the Caribbean Plate. Most volcanoes form near the edges of tectonic plates. For example, the lesser Antilles are composed in part of volcanoes at the margin of the Caribbean Plate.
Why volcanoes occur in the Caribbean region?
volcanoes occur in the Caribbean most because of the triad , the triad is 3 plates that all push against each other there are more than 3,0000 triads in the Caribbean. when the all hit each other they send cracks into space which make more volcanoes appear in the caribbean........
What kinds of rocks are found in volcanoes?

Where is Caribbean island found?
In the Caribbean Sea.

What other seismic features are found near volcanoes
Is basalt found under water and by volcanoes?

Can minerals be found in volcanoes?
where are minerals located where thier are volcanoes or trenches
What plates interact to create Caribbean volcanic arc?
The Caribbean plate and the Oceanic plate. The Oceanic plate is sub-ducted under the Caribbean thus causing the formation of volcanoes thereby creating the Caribbean Volcanic Arc.
How Compare shield volcanoes and composite volcanoes?
Shield Volcanoes - Wide base found at constructive plate margins Composite Volcanoes - Steeper Sides found at Destructive (subduction) margins
Are volcanoes found everywhere on earth?
Volcanoes are found nearly everywhere on Earth. There are even volcanoes located in the United States. There are a handful of countries without them.
