Mount Kilauea is being fed magma from a pressurized chamber underground. The molten rock is pushed out of the caldera (or a vent) and flows down to the sea.
Mount Vesuvius is known for producing explosive eruptions. These eruptions are characterized by the sudden release of gas, ash, and volcanic rock, which can cause widespread destruction in the surrounding area.
Like most stratovolcanoes, Mount St Helens alternates between explosive and effusive eruptions.
The eruptions of Mount Akutan may cause volcanic ashfall, pyroclastic flows, lahars, and lava flows, which can pose hazards to nearby communities and ecosystems. Eruptions can also disrupt air travel due to ash clouds and affect local climate by injecting gases and particles into the atmosphere. Additionally, volcanic eruptions can alter the landscape and create new landforms.
Mount Etna, located in Sicily, Italy, is known for its frequent eruptions. Historically, it has had numerous eruptions throughout the year, with some more significant than others. The volcano remains active, with eruptions occurring periodically.
Mount Stromboli has had continuous eruptions for about 2,000 years, making it one of the most active volcanoes in the world. It typically experiences small explosive eruptions every 20 minutes to a few hours, with occasional more significant eruptions.

No. Mount Redoubt was formed by a subduction zone. While in som cases earthquakes can trigger volcanic eruptions, they do not cause volcanoes to form.

Some major volcanic eruptions since 1990 include Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines in 1991, Mount Unzen in Japan in 1991, Mount Merapi in Indonesia in 2010, Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland in 2010, and Kilauea in Hawaii in 2018. These eruptions had significant impacts on the local environment and sometimes global climate.
