Stratovolcanoes, also known as composite volcanoes, are typically the steepest type of volcano. They are characterized by steep sides due to their alternating layers of lava flows, ash, and volcanic rocks. Examples of stratovolcanoes include Mount St. Helens in the United States and Mount Fuji in Japan.
The sides of a volcano are known as flanks.
The tallest volcano on Earth is Ojos del Salado, located on the Argentina-Chile border, reaching an elevation of approximately 6,893 meters (22,615 feet). The steepest volcano is considered to be the cone-shaped Mauna Kea in Hawaii, which has a steep slope angle but is primarily submerged underwater. However, if focusing solely on above-water volcanoes, the steepest is often cited as Mount Fuji in Japan. Both types of measurements highlight the impressive geological features of these volcanoes.
