What type of volcano is Clear Lake?
No. The Clear Lake volcanic field saw its last eruption roughly 10,000 years ago. Incidentally, volcanologists have stopped using the term extinct to describe volcanoes, because ANY volcano can technically reactivate at any time. Only Active and Dormant are now used to describe volcanoes. The Clear Lake volcanic field is currently dormant, however there is still a lot a geological activity there. The same forces that created the Clear Lake volcanic field are now powering The Geysers of the Mayacamas Mountains, one of the largest geothermal energy fields in the world, along with all the various hot springs in the Napa/Calistoga region.
What is a cater in volcano?
A volcanic crater is the part from which the ejecta or magma are emitted. Commonly a conical depression is left due to the withdrawal of the magma chamber that created the eruption. Sometimes infilled with a crater lake. If the eruption was of the highly explosive variety, there may not be very much of a mountain form surrounding the crater. Examples would include L Taupo in New Zealand, and the Yellowstone caldera.
