by how often they erupt extinct dormant active
25
has erupted during recorded history is expected to erupt again
26
dormant erupted in distant past not expected to erupt again
27
extinct does not have a recorded eruption is not expected to erupt
28
by type of eruption Plinian Pelean Vulcanian avalanche of red-hot dust and gases; pyroclastic flow violent, loud explosion of lava, ashes, cinders, and gases most powerful eruption, spewing lava, gas, and dust into atmosphere Hawaiian/ Strombolian quiet, runny lava; little or no cinder, ash, or steam
