What is an explosive volcano eruption?
Most explosive volcanoes are stratovolcanoes, also called composite volcanoes.
When is caldera form?
When a large explosive volcanic eruption destroys most of the volcano, the resulting large crater is called a caldera.
What is a volcano lateral blast?
A lateral blast is an explosive volcanic eruption the ejects material horizontally to one side rather than vertically as most explosive eruptions do.
What Volcano eruption increased the earth's temperature?
The Volcano is kilauea and muana in huawii is the most active volcano have more eruption.
Does a composite volcano erupt quietly or explosively?
A composite volcano is the most explosive type of volcano there is. Mt. St. Helens and Mt.Vesuvious in Pompeii are both examples of composite volcanoes, and look at the damage they did. a composite volcano usually has pyroclastic flows to accompany the traditional lava and ash.

Is a Hawaiian volcano an explosive volcano?
Generally not. Most eruptions in Hawaii are effusive.
Is the Yellowstone volcano quiet explosive or both?
Yes. The Yellowstone volcano has produced several VEI-8 eruptions, the most explosive level of eruption possible.
What kinda of lava does a explosive volcano consist of?
When a volcano erupts explosively it does not produce lava; it produces ash and pumice. The magma involved in an explosive eruption is usually felsic or intermediate. Rhyolite, dacite, and andesite are the most commonly discussed in beginner-level geology classes. However, if water gets into the volcano any type of magma can produce an explosive eruption.
What kind of eruption form composite cone volcano?
Composite volcanoes are highly variable in what they erupt. Most often, eruptions will release clouds of ash, pumice, and rock fragments. In some cases they fountain or extrude lava.
When is caldera form?
When a large explosive volcanic eruption destroys most of the volcano, the resulting large crater is called a caldera.
What is a volcano lateral blast?
A lateral blast is an explosive volcanic eruption the ejects material horizontally to one side rather than vertically as most explosive eruptions do.
Does water vapor affect how explosive a volcano is?
Yes. More gas trapped in magma leads to a more explosive eruption. Water vapor is the most abundant gas in magma.
What Volcano eruption increased the earth's temperature?
The Volcano is kilauea and muana in huawii is the most active volcano have more eruption.
What was the most explosive eruption for Mt Kilauea?
1790

Would it be more difficult to deal with an eruption from a near by composite shield or cinder cone volcano?
It would be most difficult to deal with an eruption from a composite volcano. Such eruptions tend te be explosive, spreading ash over large areas, and can produce highly destructive lahars and pyroclastic flows.
