What are major hazards associated with volcanic eruptions?
Most deaths during eruptions occur during pyroclastic flows/surges during an eruption and volcanic mudslides (known as lahars) after the eruption.
What is an epi-center?
The epicenter of a volcanic eruption is where the eruption is coming fromThe Epicenter is where the main source of movement is coming from.
What are the three main causes of volcanic eruption?
The main causes are destroying cities, killing living organisims, and polluting the air. Those were the main destructive causes
Are there different levels of volcanoes?
There are three main types of volcano that erupt in different ways, bu these are not levels. There are levels of volcanic eruption on the Volcani Explosivity Index. The scale reanges from VEI-0 for non-explosive eruptions to VEI-8 for the largest super eruptions. Each level on the scale indcates and eruption an order of magnitude large than the one below it.
2 types of volcanic eruptions?
There are two main types of volcanic eruptions: Explosive and Nonexplosive eruptions.
What are the two main kinds of volcanic eruption.?
quiet ,and explosive eruptions
What is the main product of an explosive eruption?
gas

What is the main hazard from a quiet volcanic eruption?
it could be gas or just few rocks.
How did Pompeii tried to make sense of the volcanic eruption?
The main theory was that it was the workings of the gods.

The epicenter of a volcanic eruption is where the eruption is coming fromThe Epicenter is where the main source of movement is coming from.
Why do volcanic eruptions differ?
The main cause of differences in volcanic eruption characteristics is due to the viscosity of the magma. High viscosity magmas are high in sticky silica which traps gas and produces explosive eruptions. Low viscosity magmas are low in silica and produce eruptions with far less energetic characteristics.

A volcano may erupt explosively or quietly Which factor has the least effect on the power of a volcanic eruption?
Height of the main vent of the volcano
