Volcanoes cause a change in immediate weather resulting in cloudcover, rain and lightning. This is due to the property that the volcanic ash particles have; i.e. they promote the production of rain particles at a molecular level. There are also long term climatic effects of volcanic eruptions which are harder to understand. If the ash reaches the stratusphere it cannot be diminished by rain and therefore contributes to the greenhouse or warming sex. Obviously there are also immediate physical damages caused by the lavaflows and acid seeping into surrounding water but this damage is relatively small in comparison to the climatic significance of Volcanoes Electricity and even telephone supplies can be cut off because of the large explotion that has caused a strong vibration............................
A destructive result of a volcanic eruption is what the lava does to the surrounding plant life; no plants can stand the hot temperature of molten lava, and generally die even before coming in contact with the substance.
A constructive result of a volcanic eruption comes when the volcano is out at sea or at least on an island; the lava, when it flows into the sea and cools over a period of time will eventually become another landmass, which is how Hawaii was probably formed.
CONSTRUCTIVE EFFECTS OF VOLCANOES
It helps release the stored energy inside the earth
The destructive effects of volcanic ash much outweigh the constructive effects. Significant amounts of volcanic ash can immediately destroy most of a local ecosystem, as well as the collapse of roofs on man-made structures. In addition, ash can become so dense that it can block sunlight, lowering temperatures and causing power outages/breakdown of communication. In addition, ash can be very hazardous to humans, especially if it is in the form of a pyroclastic flow. Pyroclastic flows are 'avalanches' of hot ash, gases and rocks that flow at high speeds, deadly to the touch and often unable to outrun. Finally, planes are unable to fly through ash clouds, due to the blinding and debilitating capabilities of it. However, over time ashfall can lead to the creation of very fertile soils.
The results of a volcanic eruption is destruction, lose of family, friends, and homes. Most families would have to move across the state, country, or world, to find a new home.
Destruction, loss of life, fires, caused by lava from the volcano. The temperature around the world drops, as the ash blocks out the sunlight. Eruptions can also cause waves, tsunamis etc..
Rain,Volcanoes and Hurricanes are both destructive and constructive. RAIN: constructive: plant growth and water for animals. destructive: flooding and erosion VOLCANOES: constructive: new earth surface. destructive: lava flow and ash cloud. HURRICANES: constructive: rain and reduction of gases in the air. destructive: winds and flooding.
Volcanic ash can clog and damage plane engines, leading to a loss of power and potentially a crash.
The correct spelling is volcanic tuff instead of volcanic tuft. Volcanic ash that has been ejected from vents during eruption makes volcanic tuff.
Volcanic ash can have a variety of effects. In some eruptions it can fall like snow, but with different effects. The silica in the ash can be toxic to plants and animals. The weight of the ash can bring down trees and collapse roofs. Large areas can be buried. Over the long term, however, volcanic ash, once weathered, makes very fertile soil. Volcanic ash is also harmful when inhaled and can damage the eyes and lungs. It can clog the engines of cars and aircraft, and can bring down planes in flight. In some eruptions, superheated clouds of ash and gas called pyroclastic flows race down the slopes of a volcano. Anything living caught in such a flow will burn to death. When ash mixes with rain or melted snow and ice it can form mudflows called lahars. These lahars behave like floods, but are denser and more destructive, burying the areas where they come to rest in hardened mud. Lahars can fill in stream beds as well, causing floods.
No. Volcanic ash is harmful to inhale and can be toxic, but it is not radioactive.

Tephor is a type of volcanic ash. Tephor is a type of volcanic ash.
No. Volcanic ash is harmful to inhale and can be toxic, but it is not radioactive.
Volcanic ash can create very fertile soil.
No. While volcanic ash can have a basaltic composition, it usually does not. Basalt forms from lava. Volcanic ash forms tuff.
Volcanic ash
Volcanic ash can cause lung problems from breathing the ash in.
Volcanic ash effects jet engines by clogging-up the engine. The plane travels at such a speed even minute particles like volcanic ash can eventually fill-up the combustion chamber and since there is no moving parts in a jet engine it can't get out of the chamber. The massive heat in the chamber turns the volcanic ash to glass because its 80% silica which eventually stops everything in the engine (Basically).
