User: when reading a seismograph what waves come first?

Weegy: P waves. Because P waves are the fastest seismic waves, they will usually be the first ones that your seismograph records.

Yes, volcanoes can cause flooding when eruptions melt snow or ice, or when they trigger landslides or lahars (mudflows) that can block rivers or lakes, causing water to overflow.

Yes, tsunamis generally cause more deaths than lava flows due to their ability to travel long distances and affect coastal populations with powerful waves.

When a volcano is going to erupt, do water level and water tempature increase?
Weegy: Increased gas pressure will make water levels rise and suddenly drop right before an eruption, and thermal focusing (increased local heat flow) can reduce or dry out acquifers. User: Is a warning sign of a volcano is going to erupt, the sky darkens? Weegy: The 3 main warning signs that a volcanic eruption is imminent are: Deformation of the surrounding land such as an increase in height. [ [ Increased seismic activity (small earthquakes and tremors) Increased production of volcanic gases eg sulphur dioxide. ] YES the sky darkens because warning signs signaled that magma was moving upward inside the volcano. ] (More)

When a volcano is going to erupt, water level and water temperature may increase in certain cases due to volcanic activity, such as the release of geothermal energy or the interaction of magma with nearby water sources, but this is not a universal occurrence and can vary depending on the specific volcanic system.

The darkening of the sky is not a reliable or specific warning sign of an impending volcanic eruption, as it can be influenced by various factors such as weather conditions, atmospheric particles, or other natural phenomena. Volcanic eruptions often exhibit other warning signs such as increased seismic activity, ground deformation, gas emissions, and changes in volcanic behavior. Monitoring these factors provides a more accurate indication of volcanic activity.
