Mt. Krakatoa is a stratovolcano, also known as a composite volcano. It is characterized by its steep profile and explosive eruptions due to the presence of viscous magma. The eruption of Krakatoa in 1883 was one of the most powerful volcanic events in recorded history.
Mount Etna recently had a Strombolian eruption. This type of eruption is characterized by frequent and moderate explosive bursts of lava that can reach a few hundred meters in height.
There are 3 kinds of volcanoes which are found around the world. They are shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and composite volcanoes. Many of the most beautiful mountains in the world are composite volcanoes.
Currently Thera is a caldera with a shield in it. Prior to its cataclysmic eruption it was a stratovolcano, also known as a composite volcano.
Mount St. Helens, an active stratovolcano, is of the composite type.
A cone shaped mountain may be kind of volcano called a stratovolcano, which is built from ash deposits and very viscous lava flows. Some stratovolcanoes have very well formed cones, including Mount Fuji in Japan, and Mount St Helens prior to its cataclysmic eruption in 1980.
