Something happened
People responded to the eruption of the Soufrière Hills volcano in Montserrat in 1995 with shock and fear, as it caused significant destruction and forced the evacuation of the capital city. The local government and international aid organizations provided assistance to those affected, while some residents chose to leave the island permanently.
Mount Vesivius did not erupt in 1991. Its last eruption was in 1944.
The weakest type of volcano is known as a "cinder cone" volcano. These volcanoes are typically small in size and are formed from ejected volcanic material that builds up around the vent. They have short eruption periods and are not as explosive as other types of volcanoes.
Yes, Eldfell volcano is a cinder cone volcano. It is located on the Icelandic island of Heimaey and was formed during an eruption in 1973. Its distinct cone shape and composition of cinder and volcanic ash classify it as a cinder cone volcano.
Kilauea's last eruption is still its current eruption. The volcano awoke from a short slumber on January 3rd of 1983 and has been erupting continuously since that time. The volcano has gone through several different eruptive phases which can be read about on the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory website provided through the United States Geological Survey.

airspace was closed down for a couple of days, init :)
Its last major eruption was in 1883, ending in a colossal explosion that destroyed most of the island and created a huge wave that caused more devastation than the eruption itself. However, the volcano is still active and after a short dormancy started rebuilding itself.

· 1. Evacuation. · 2. Abandonment of the capital city. · 3.The British government gave money for compensation and redevelopment. · 4.Unemployment rose due to the collapse of the tourist industry.
The most important factor in determining the effects of a volcano eruption on the people, wildlife, and vegetation near the volcano is the type of eruption (which depends on the type of volcano). There are two basic kinds of eruptions and any volcano can erupt as some combination of these. The first type of eruption consists mostly of molten rock running over the surface of the Earth like a thick liquid. This kind of volcano often comes from the ocean floor and some of the most familiar examples are lava flows that occur in Hawaii. In terms of effects on people and animals, these lava flows usually move slowly enough that animals can get out of the way in time. But they are very hot and bury any vegetation (or houses!) in their path and often can start fires that are dangerous.
The eruption of Mount St. Helens in 1980 was relatively short, lasting for about nine hours. However, the effects of the eruption, including the eruption column and pyroclastic flows, had long-lasting impacts on the surrounding area.
A volcano is a rapid change because it can go from a state of dormancy to eruption very quickly, often with little warning. The eruption itself can cause immediate and widespread changes to the surrounding environment, affecting landscapes, ecosystems, and communities in a short period of time.
Well, the area becomes mostly ashy, but a while after the ash clears away, it makes GREAT farm ground. Of course, during the eruption, the ash and stuff is flying, so everyone clears out for a while. A short time after the eruption, you can tell it happened, because of the smell and ash. But a while later, you wouldn't even know.
