Volcanoes that erupts are known as active volcanoes.
Shield volcanoes and cinder cones
The main types of volcano formations are shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), cinder cone volcanoes, and calderas. Each type has distinct characteristics based on their eruption style and the type of materials they release.
Shield volcanoes usually produce effusive eruptions.
Volcanoes are large formations that having an opening where gases and lava can escape out of the Earth's magma chamber. Some types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, super volcanoes, and mud volcanoes. The largest volcano based on height is Tamu Massif.
There are four main types of volcanoes: shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), and calderas. Each type has distinct characteristics based on their eruption style, shape, and composition.

Phreatic Eruption (an explosive volcanic eruption)
The six types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), cinder cone volcanoes, supervolcanoes, submarine volcanoes, and fissure vents. Each type of volcano is characterized by different eruption styles, shapes, and compositions.
All types of volcanoes involve the eruption of molten rock (magma) from beneath the Earth’s surface. They can also release gases, ash, and lava during the eruption, impacting the surrounding environment. Additionally, they are shaped by the accumulation of erupted materials over time.
