  • ActiveVolcano - Has Erupted In The Last 10,000 Years
  • InactiveVolcano - No Activity During The Last 10,000 Years
  • ExtinctVolcano - No Written Records Of Activity Considered Unlikely To Erupt Again
  • Volcanoes - These Are Natural Opening In The Earth’s Surface Where Molten Rock Smoke, Gases, and ashes are ejected
  • Crater - Funnel Shaped Depression At The Top Of A Volcano Formed As A Result Of Explosive Eruption
  • Caldera - It Is A Volcano Crater That Is Former When Part Of The Wall of the crater collapse following an explosive eruption
  • Magma - Molten Rocks Inside The Earth
  • Lava - Magma that has been ejected out of a volcano
  • ShieldVolcano - This is formed by the accumulation of lava oozes out from the volcano. Since non-viscious Lava Can Flow Freely
  • CinderConeVolcano - This is built from ejected lava fragments. they have a steel slope, wide crater, and is most abundant of the three manor volcanoes
  • CompositeVolcano - Also known as the StratoVolcano.
  • Phreatic/HydroThermal - It is a Stream Driven Eruption as the hot rocks come in contact with water
  • PhreatoMagmatic - It is a violent eruption due to the contact between water and magma
  • Strombolian - It is a period weak to violent eruption characterized by fountain Lava
  • Vulcanian - Characterized by tall eruption that reach up to 20Km high pyroclasticflow and ashfall tephra
  • Plinian - It is excessively Explosive Type of eruption of gas and pyroclastics
  • Viscosity - Property of the materials resistance to flow it is also described as the liquid thickiness and stickyness
  • VolcanicEruption - a process where magma, gas, and other volcanic materials are expelled from a volcano to the earth’s surface
  • Eruptions - Occur When Pressure forces magma to the surface
