What else can I help you with?
Will a shield volcano erupt?
Yes. If it doesn't erupt and never has erupted then it is not a volcano.
When did the first Shield Volcano Erupt?
bi lava
What lava does a shield volcano erupt poehoehoe or AA?
Usually both.
What is called in a volcanoes that is not erupting?
You've got to be kidding me. A volcano that erupts often is called a cinder cone volcano, a volcano that does not erupt at all is called a shield volcano, and a volcano that can erupt but doesn't is a composite volcano. Here is the chart. Cinder cone: eruption Shield: dead Composite: sleep Hope you use my answer wisely. NOOBS!
What is the difference between a composite and shield a Volcano?
Shield Volcanoes erupt less violently and flows further then composite volcanoes. A composite volcano erupts more violently.
What type of explosion does a shield volcano have?
Generally shield volcanoes do not explode. They erupt in a non-explosive fashion, fountaining or oozing lava.
Why do some volcanoes erupt while others erupt quietly?
This is because of the time of volcano it is and the type of lava it excretes. A steep volcano will erupt with basaltic lava which is runny and can clog at the top. A shield volcano, however is different as the thick lava emitted just glops onward.
Volcano that is unlikely to erupt again?
An extinct volcano is one that will never erupt again.
How often does a volcano explode?
It depends, a volcano can erupt once and never erupt again. Or, a volcano can erupt multiple times a day.
How many times did shield volcano erupt?
Shield volcanoes typically erupt frequently, with activity occurring over a period of several thousand years. The exact number of eruptions can vary greatly depending on the specific volcano in question. Some shield volcanoes may have dozens to hundreds of eruptions throughout their lifespan.
What type of volcano has lava that primarily consists of basalt?
Both shield volcanoes and cinder cones primarily erupt basaltic lava.
What is the similarities to the Cinder Cone Volcano the Composite Volcano and the Shield Volcano?
- They all are made up of layers of volcanic debris - They all erupt lava - They all have played important roles in volcanology - They are all hazardous
