How much did it cost to repair damage from the Monserrat eruption?
The repair costs of the Montserrat eruption was $268,000.00. Between storm damage and volcanic eruptions, Montserrat averages 8,645.00 damage annually. In the last volcanic eruption 5,000 people were affected and 32 were killed.
What are differences between an eruption column and pyroclastic flow?
An eruption column is a vertical plume of ash and gas produced by a volcanic eruption. A pyroclastic flow a a flow of similar material that moves down the sides of a volcano at great speed.
What is the connection between the 1815 Mount Tambora volcanic eruption and the snow and killing in the US in 1816?
Sulfur emissions from the eruption blocked out some of the sun's rays, causing global temperatures to fall in what is called a volcanic winter. This led to unseasonably late snowfalls in North American and Europe.
When does a volcanic eruption end?
When the magma chamber is no longer pressurised. Note, this does not mean that the magma chamber can not refill and cause another eruption later. Thus there is a difference between the termination of an eruption and a volcano becoming extinct (ceasing to have any more eruptions ever).
Where did the loudest volcanic explosion which occured in 1883?
KrakatoaThe island of Krakatau (Krakatoa) is in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra.
What is the relationship between the amount of gases in magma and the explosiveness a volcanic eruption?
The more gases, water vapor and silica there is in magma the bigger the explosiveness of a volcanic eruption.
What is the relationship between the silica contents of magma and the explosiveness of a volcanic eruption?
The high the silica content, the explosive and the eruption.
What is the connection between Minoan civilization and a volcanic eruption on thera?
the earthquake caused a volcanic eruption
How is the strength of a volcanic eruption related to the magma in the volcano?
If the magma is more viscous, the eruption is stronger.
What is the difference between silent and violent eruption?
the different types of volcanic eruption is silen and violen erruption
What date did the volcanic eruption flood crete?
This was caused by the Minoan eruption of Thera or the Santorini eruption between 1642 and 1540 BC
When was the loudest volcanic explosion and where?
The loudest volcanic explosion in recorded history was one produced during the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa. This volcanic island, which collapsed into the sea after the eruption, was located between Java and Sumatra in Indonesia.
What is the difference between viscosity and volcanic erutions?
Viscosity is a measure of resistance to flow in a fluid. A volcanic eruption is a violent discharge of molten rock and ash.
How much did it cost to repair damage from the Monserrat eruption?

When did Mt Rainier eruption?
Mount Rainier last erupted in 1894.Clarification:The last recorded volcanic eruption of Mt Rainer was between 1820 and 1854, but there have been many witnesses to further volcanic activity and rumblings in 1858, 1870, 1879, 1882 and 1894.
What are differences between an eruption column and pyroclastic flow?
An eruption column is a vertical plume of ash and gas produced by a volcanic eruption. A pyroclastic flow a a flow of similar material that moves down the sides of a volcano at great speed.
Which island was destoyed by a volcanic eruption?
Krakatoa, or Krakatau, is an uninhabited volcanic island in the Sunda Strait, between the islands of Java and Sumatra. The eruption in August 1883 caused massive tsunamis, killing more than 36,000 people on surrounding islands. After the eruption most of the island was gone. Krakatau is still very much alive and active.
