mount vesuvise by frequencyof eruption
The volcano in Yellowstone National Park is inverted, so instead of exploding into the sky it explodes into the ground (I think). If/when the volcano erupts, there will be a huge ash cloud that will spread across the whole world, blotting out the sun. So if the population of our planet wasn't wiped out by toxic gases in the cloud (I'm not sure if it would be toxic or not, sorry) then all the plants dying from lack of sunlight would get us. And in the movie 2012, they wouldn't all be fine at the end because the ash cloud would have got them. This is very depressing.
Yellowstone is a volcanic caldera and everything that you see from mud pots, geysers, and steaming hot pools are from the volcanic activity. It is just one huge volcano and if it ever erupts several states will be in trouble.
I am fairly certain that when a volcano no longer erupts, it is now called a dormant volcano. I think that is all that it is called
No. The Yellowstone volcano is 1,500 miles from Pennsylvania. Lava cannot flow that far, and rhyolitic lava such as that produced by the Yellowstone volcano is so viscous that it can can barely flow at all. However, the volcano's eruptions are explosive and produce large amounts of ash. This would be carried by upper level winds and would fall on Pennsylvania.
the bad news is that there isn't a volcano inYellowstone the fact is that the whole of Yellowstone is just the creator wich is huge and makes it a super volcano which is not good at all!!!
A volcano
The Yellowstone volcano is still active. This is proven by the 1,000 to 3,000 earthquakes per year, thermal features in Yellowstone, and active ground deformation. However, the Yellowstone volcano has not erupted in a very long time.

The negatives of living near a volcano is that if it erupts you would get killed.
i don't know when this was but, it does not matter. the volcano in Hawaii erupts all the time
No. You see or hear on some shows,"oh, this volcano hasn't erupted since 1907." or something. But then it erupts. Yes, that can happen. A period of a few hundred years isn't very long for a volcano, especially ones that erupt violently. The mountain of a volcano is built up by a series of eruptions over the course of thousands if not millions of years. After erupting a volcano may go dormant for a few years or event a few centuries, but it is not dead and in nearly all cases activity will eventually resume. As once example, the volcano at Yellowstone has not had a magmatic eruption in 70,000 years, but it is still monitored for activity as magma is present beneath it.
