What else can I help you with?
What is the large hole that is formed when a volcanoes magma chamber empties and collapses?
Caldera
Mass rock formed when a volcano's magma chamber empties and collapses?
A mass rock is formed when a volcano's magma chamber empties and the overlying rock collapses into the empty chamber. This creates a steep-walled depression or caldera at the volcano's summit. It is a common feature of collapsed volcanoes.
Formed when magma chamber empties and its roof collapses?
Its called a "caldera".
Very large crater resulting from the collapse of it's walls?
This type of geological feature is known as a caldera, formed when the magma chamber beneath a volcano empties, causing the volcano to collapse inward. Calderas can be several kilometers in diameter and are often characterized by steep walls and a flat floor. Examples of calderas include Yellowstone in the United States and Santorini in Greece.
What is the crater called if it becomes very large as a result of the collapse of its walls?
A crater that becomes very large as a result of the collapse of its walls is called a caldera. Calderas are typically formed after a volcanic eruption when the magma chamber empties and the summit collapses into the void below.
How are earthquakes formed?
a collapse earthquake is formed by whatever makes the rest of the volcanoes form...
What causes a caldera volcano?
A caldera is a depression formed by an extremely large, explosive volcanic eruption. The largest eruptions drain huge amounts of magma from underground, causing the ground above to collapse into the space left behind.
The collapse of a volcanos magma chamber may produce a?
caldera
When a volcano collapses into itself at its top it forms a?
When a volcano collapses into itself at its top, it forms a large crater called a caldera. Calderas are formed when the magma chamber of a volcano empties during an eruption, causing the summit to collapse inward.
What is a large circular depression formed at the top of a volcano called?
Caldera.
Is this correct pyroclastic flows from composite cone volcanoes are known as calderas?
No. They are simply called pyroclastic flows. A caldera is a depression formed in the ground when a volcano, usually a composite volcano, collapses as the magma chamber partially empties during an especially violent eruption.
What is the large hole of a volcano formed when the roof of a volcanoes magama chamber collapes csalled?
caldera
