What else can I help you with?
Are rhyolite pumice and tuff from violent eruptions?
Pumice and tuff are the product of violent eruptions. Rhyolite is often, but not always produced by violent eruptions, but it can also form from slow, extrusive eruptions.
Is there anything that warns us that a volcano is going to erupt?
Yes. Volcanic eruptions are often preceded by earthquakes, venting of steam and gas, and very slight change to the shape of the volcano. Large eruptions are often preceded by smaller eruptions.
Is there precipitation in both a hurricane and tornado?
Yes, both hurricanes and tornadoes can produce precipitation. Hurricanes typically bring heavy rainfall over a wide area, while tornadoes can generate intense localized rainfall in the immediate vicinity of the tornado itself.
Heavy smokers are often prone to what?
Heavy rain.
Does low silica magma cause explosive volcanic eruptions?
Not usually. Explosive eruptions are more often to magma with high or moderate silica levels.
Violent volcanic eruptions are common where magma has?
Violent volcanic eruptions are common where magma has a high gas content and viscosity. The pressure from trapped gases builds until it explosively releases, causing explosive eruptions like Plinian or Pelean eruptions. These eruptions often result in ash plumes, pyroclastic flows, and lahars.
What are lumps that have compositions different from the main body of rock called?
Those are typically referred to as xenoliths. Xenoliths are rock fragments that have different mineralogy and composition compared to the surrounding rock which they are found in. They are often brought to the surface during volcanic eruptions.
Can rain kill you?
Rain itself cannot directly kill a person. However, severe weather conditions like lightning, flooding, or strong winds that often accompany heavy rain can pose a danger to human life. It is important to take precautions during storms to stay safe.
Will heavy rims make you have to replace your brakes often?
No but heavy braking will
How often do volcanic eruptions last?
How long is a peice of string. They vary from seconds to decades.
Where do volcanic eruptions often happen?
Where ever there is a vertical vent fault in the tectonic plates.
What type of eruptions does Mount kelud produce?
Mount Kelud, located in Indonesia, is known for its explosive eruptions. It primarily produces phreatomagmatic eruptions, which occur when magma interacts with water, leading to violent explosions. These eruptions can generate ash clouds and pyroclastic flows, impacting surrounding areas significantly. The volcano's eruptions are often characterized by the formation of new craters and the ejection of volcanic material.
