DQ Volcanic hazards pose to humans

To illustrate the threat that volcanic hazards pose to humans, write about a recent volcanic eruption and how it impacted people living nearby. In the United States, the 1980 Mt. St. Helens volcano eruption impacted travel and commerce in the U.S. for several weeks. The Iceland volcanic eruption of Eyjafjallajokull in April 2010 grounded airplane travel in Europe for several weeks and impacted University of Evansville students trying to fly home after a semester at Harlaxton College in England. The eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in 1991 caused \”global cooling\” for two years.

use at least half of your paper to describe volcanic hazards, then use the rest of your paper to describe a recent (within the past 100 years) volcanic eruption that occurred and how it impacted people living in the area.

Format the paper using either APA style or MLA style; do not mix the two styles. Please visit the Purdue Owl website for APA and MLA style criteria (https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/resources.html). It is important that you list all sources correctly on your Reference page (APA) or Works Cited page (MLA). All sources that are listed must be cited correctly in the paper. Cite sources in the paper by author\’s name and date.

It is important that your paper is well organized. The first paragraph of your paper needs to include your thesis statement. The thesis statement is usually the last sentence of the first paragraph.

Each paragraph in the paper should address a single topic that supports your thesis. Feel free to insert figures (photos, maps, diagrams) and tables in the paper. Each figure and table must have a caption and cite the source of the information in the figure or table.

The summary paragraph should reiterate key points from the body of the paper that support the thesis. New information should not be placed in the summary.

Proof read your paper carefully for grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors. One of the best ways to proofread your paper is to read the entire paper out loud, word-for-word. If there are errors, you will find them. I also encourage you to have friends or family proofread your papers to assist you in eliminating grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
