Volcano
and hydrologic hazards volcanoes produce a wide variety of hazards
that can kill people and destroy property. Large explosive eruptions can
endanger people and property hundreds of miles away and even affect global
climate. Some of the volcano hazards, such as landslides, can occur even
when a volcano is not erupting |

Volcanoes
volcanoes are mountains, but they are very different from other mountains;
they are not formed by folding and crumpling or by uplift and erosion.
Instead, volcanoes are built by the accumulation of their own eruptive
products -- lava, bombs (crusted over lava blobs), ashflows, and tephra
(airborne ash and dust). A volcano is most commonly a conical hill or
mountain built around a vent that connects with reservoirs of molten rock
below the surface of the Earth. The term volcano also refers to the opening
or vent through which the molten rock and associated gases are expelled |

Submarine volcanoes Submarine volcanoes and volcanic vents are common
features on certain zones of the ocean floor. Some are active at the present
time and, in shallow water, disclose their presence by blasting steam and
rock-debris high above the surface of the sea |
