Volcanic Landforms

Types of Volcanoes Cinder Cone Shield Composite

Cinder Cone Volcanoes Mainly explosive eruptions Produced from ash, cinders and bombs (pyroclastic flows) Steep, cone-shaped hill or small mountain Erodes easily

Shield Volcanoes Lava flows from quiet eruptions Wide, gentle sloping mountain

Composite Volcanoes Lava flows alternate with explosive eruptions of ash, cinders and bombs (pyroclastic flows) Tall cone shaped mountains
