Are volcanic eruptions in the ring of fire generally quiet or violent?

Answer 1

Volcanic eruptions in the Ring of Fire are generally violent, though not all eruptions are. Kilauea is an example of a volcano that has relatively quiet eruptions, but it is a deep mantle hotspot volcano not part of the ring of fire system and its lava is low in water content. In general the volcanoes in the Ring of Fire that have violent eruptions including Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Pinatubo, Krakatoa, and Mt. Mazama because their lava is high in water content which increases the possibility of steam explosions during an eruption.

Answer 2

Volcanic eruptions in the Ring of Fire can be both quiet and violent. Some eruptions are relatively gentle, with lava flows and ash clouds, while others are more explosive, producing pyroclastic flows, ash plumes, and lava bombs. It depends on the specific volcano and its eruption style.
