Lava domes can be found at a number of locations, and can emerge fairly quickly. They are most often found at subduction zones and can be found on stratovolcanoes. Volcanoes that have produced lava domes include Novarupta in Alaska, Mount St Helens in Washington, Chaitén in Chile, and Paluweh in Indonesia.

On the surface of the planet Mars, some lava domes seem to occur in the western part of Arcadia Planitia and also within Terra Sirenum.

On the surface of planet Earth, there are lava domes within the crater of Mount St. Helens in the state of Washington in the pacific Northwestern region of North America. Mount St. Helens is part of the Cascade Volcanic Arc, which includes Lassen Peak, Mount Meager, and the Wizard Island cinder cone in Crater Lake, Oregon. The arc extends from southwestern British Columbia through Washington and Oregon to Northern California.

What are the broad dome shaped volcanoes called?

shield volcanoes.


What are signs that an volcano is going to occur?

increased seismic activity in the area, swelling of the magma dome (in andesite volcanoes), increase in surface temperature.


Are there any kind of volcanos?

There are three different types of volcanoes. The types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, dome volcanoes, and also composite volcanoes.
