Hi mr. wood

We recently talked about types of volcanos during secong perio and i was wondering what type of volcano is Mt Erebus. I was thinking it was a cindercone volcano but i could be wrong. Also, is mt. erebus a hot spot volcano or is it by a plate boundary? if so, what type of boundary is it?

Hey Rachel,
Good thinking!  Why a cindercone?  We have a lot of questions about the type and if Erebus is a hot spot or not.  I'm going to let you guys talk it over and tell me what you think.
Cheers,
Mr. Wood
