Eruptions and Forms of Volcanoes

Types of Eruptions Violent and explosive Quiet and flowing Depends on trapped gases and magma composition

Trapped Gases Water vapor and carbon dioxide are trapped in magma At low pressure, they escape quietly when they reach the surface At high pressure, they escape violently when they reach the surface

Magma Composition Two types: Basaltic – less silica and very fluid; produces quiet eruptions Granitic – lots of silica, high water vapor content, and very thick; produces very violent eruptions

Forms of Volcanoes Three forms: Shield Cinder Cone Composite

Shield Volcano Formed by quiet eruptions Basaltic lava builds up in flat layers Gently sloping sides Ex: Hawaiian Islands

Cinder Cone Volcano Caused by explosive eruptions Granitic lava thrown high into the air Lava cools into different sizes of volcanic material called tephra Steep-sided, loose slopes

Composite Volcano A mix of the other two types Quiet or violent Basaltic or granitic Steep or gentle slopes Layered or tephra
