What else can I help you with?
Where in what country did the greatest volcanic eruption occur?
Hawaii, because hawaii itself is cooled lava
What are the differences between pahoehoe and AA What kind of eruption produces these type of lava?
The differences are that Pahoehoe produces fast moving lava; Aa produces slower moving lava. The kind of eruption that produces these types of lava is a quiet eruption.
How can you use the word eruption and lava in a sentence?
The eruption of the boiling hot lava sent the small town into panic.
Is aa lava explosive lava?
No. A lava flow usually indicates an eruption that is not explosive.
Do lava flows occur anymore?
Yes, lava flows still occur today. Volcanic eruptions can release lava, which flows down the volcano's slopes. Lava flows can pose risks to nearby communities and infrastructure, but they are a natural part of the Earth's geological processes.
Which type of lava is not associated with a volcanic eruption?
Lava that is not associated with a volcanic eruption is typically classified as "pahoehoe" or "aa" lava when it flows out of a volcano. However, in the context of lava that does not erupt, "intrusive" or "plutonic" rock formations, such as granite or diorite, occur when magma solidifies beneath the Earth's surface without reaching the surface as lava. These types of magma do not result in eruptions but can lead to volcanic activity indirectly through tectonic processes.
What is a river of lava called?
A river of lava is called a lava flow. It is a mass of flowing molten rock that moves downhill from a volcano during an eruption.
Is lava considered weather?
Lava is not weather, it is the result of a volcano eruption. The eruption itself can cause weather issues such as falling ash and clouds, but lava is not considered "weather".
What makes a quiet eruption different from an explosive eruption?
quiet eruption flows easeir cause it has a low viscosity and lava flows easier but explosive eruption has a high viscosity and lava flows slower
Lava is magma that has reached the what in an eruption?
Lava is magma that has reached the surface of the earth in an eruption. When this cools down, it will form igneous rocks.
Can a volcanic eruption occur not including lava?
Yes. Large explosive eruptions do not produce lava, but instead produce clouds of ash, pumice, and gas. There are also phreatic eruptions. These occur when water flashes to steam from contact with magma or rocks heated by magma, generating an explosion.
What kind of eruption is hot lava?
Hot lava comes from effusive eruptions, where magma is relatively low in silica and flows easily out of the volcano. This type of eruption typically results in slow-moving lava flows that can cover large areas.
