When a certain temperature threshold unique to each substance in the universe is crossed, a phase change will result, changing the state of the matter.he point at which matter subjected to a particular temperature under conditions of constant pressure begins to change its phase is called the phase change threshold. At this temperature, every bit of the substance exposed to the heat will change its state.
Volcanoes affect the climate through the gases and dust particles thrown into the atmosphere during eruptions. The effect of the volcanic gases and dust may warm or cool the earth's surface, depending on how sunlight interacts with the volcanic material.olcanoes affect the climate through the gases and dust particles thrown into the atmosphere during eruptions.
