What else can I help you with?
Why do volcanoes sometimes get lower?
In an explosive eruption, the summit may be blasted away. In large eruptions, so much magma may be erupted that a volcano can collapse into the space left behind, leaving a caldera.
Pyroclasic materials from shield volcanoes?
Pyroclastic materials from shield volcanoes generally consist of basaltic lava flows and minor amounts of tephra, such as ash and cinder. These materials are typically low in silica content and flow easily, producing gentle, broad slopes characteristic of shield volcanoes. Explosive eruptions from shield volcanoes are less common compared to stratovolcanoes due to the lower viscosity of the magma.
Is there water around a volcano?
Sometimes. Many volcanoes form islands, but not all do.
Why do the different types of volcanoes have different shapes to them?
Because sometimes they have explosions and change shape.
Do seismologists also study volcanoes?
They do occasionally, and they sometimes help vulcanologists. This is because volcanoes generate earthquakes, and analyzing patterns in these earthquakes can help to tell if a volcano is likely to erupt soon.
Why do volcanoes exisits?
volcanoes are mounds of earth that sometimes spurt molten rock out
Do volcanoes cause earth quakes?
Sometimes they do.
What are sometimes called smoking chimneys?
volcanoes
Do earthquakes and volcanoes alwyas occur at the same time?
sometimes yes, sometimes no.
What are the volcanoes on the sun?
There is no volcanoes on the sun, but sometimes a large energy release known as a solar flare can be mistaken for a volcano.

What forms when continental plates push together?
Volcanoes or sometimes earthquake!
Do volcanoes erupt in places where two of the earths plates meet?
yes sometimes
Are crystals sometimes made by volcanoes.?
they aren't made BY volcanos but they are made in the volcanos
Is there water around a volcano?
Sometimes. Many volcanoes form islands, but not all do.
What kinds of lava do volcanoes with lower viscosity magma produce?
They produce basaltic lava.
