No. Calderas form when a volcano produces an extremely massive eruption and collapses in on itself. But the volcano will often continue to erupt after this. For example, the volcano Krakatoa formed a caldera in 1883, but eruptions since then have formed a new island that is currently very active. There is evidence that the volcano has done such a thing several times.

What islands are volcanic and has ponds?
Volcanic islands such as the Hawaiian Islands, particularly the Big Island, feature numerous volcanic craters that can form ponds or lakes, like Crater Lake in Kilauea. Similarly, the Azores, an archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean, boast volcanic formations with lakes in their calderas, such as Lagoa das Sete Cidades. Additionally, islands like Santorini in Greece have volcanic origins and contain caldera lakes.
How do Calderas as form?
Calderas form as a result of volcanic eruptions that empty a magma chamber beneath a volcano. When the magma is expelled during an eruption, the support for the ground above is lost, causing the surface to collapse and create a large, depression-like structure. This process can be triggered by explosive eruptions or the gradual draining of magma, leading to a caldera that can be several kilometers in diameter. Over time, these depressions may fill with water, forming lakes, or become sites for new volcanic activity.
Are there any calderas in Texas?
There are a few ancient Calderas in Texas. Texas isn't near any 'hotspots' or tectonic plate boundaries, so it's not volcanically active. The Calderas are in the western part of the state and are about 40 million years old or so... One in particular is the Buckhorn Caldera near Ft. Davis, Texas.
What term is given to large depressions associated with volcanoes that form when volcanoes explode or collapse in the Earth?
That term is 'calderas'
What is A Form Of Volcano That Collapses In On Itself?
A form of volcano that collapses in on itself is called a caldera. This occurs when a volcano erupts and empties its magma chamber, leading to a significant loss of structural support. As a result, the ground above the emptied chamber collapses, creating a large depression. Calderas can be quite vast and may eventually fill with water, forming lakes.
Are calderas occupied by large lakes?
Calderas can be occupied by lakes, but they do not have to be. Seomve calderas are dry while others are located beneath the sea.
What lakes are formed from calderas?
One of the most famous is Crater Lake, Oregon. (see the link below)
Which country has no calderas?
Nigeria has no calderas.

Are craters larger than calderas?
Calderas are typically larger than most impact craters, which are formed by meteorite impacts. Calderas are massive volcanic depressions that form when the ground collapses after a volcanic eruption depletes the magma chamber. The size of both structures can vary greatly, but calderas tend to be larger in scale.
