1 Volcanoes Kim Lachler Updated 11/14 NCES 6.E.2.2

2 Eruption types

3 Type 1 Type 1  small amount of gas is trapped underground  Not much pressure buildup  Lava oozes out in a calm, steady flow  Most gentle type of eruption

4 Eruption type Type 2 Type 2  Small buildup of gas causes a noisy explosion  Lava is thrown several hundred feet in the air  Not as dangerous as some other types  Most common on land

5 Eruption types Type 3 Type 3  Sticky magma plugs up a volcano’s opening  Gas builds up, causing pressure  Explosion can throw debris as high as nine miles into the air  Smaller explosions can occur for days, months, or years after the eruption

6 Type of eruption Type 4 Type 4  Magma plugs up a volcano’s opening  Pressure builds up behind the plug  Blast can throw debris more than 15 miles into the air into the air  Most dangerous  Parts of a mountain can be blown off

7 Lava types Aa Aa  lava pours out quickly and forms a brittle crust  as it continues to flow it cause the crust to tear into jagged pieces Lava_on_Land_and_in_Water.mov

8 Lava types Pahoehoe Pahoehoe  lava pours out slowly like wax  it is glassy with wrinkles

9 Lava types Pillow lava Pillow lava  forms when lava erupts underwater  forms round lumps

10 Lava types Blocky lava Blocky lava  lava oozes out into heaps forming blocky chunks

11 Volcano types Shield volcanoes Shield volcanoes  large, broad, gently sloping sides, lava flows easily  formed from build up of layers

12 Volcano types Cinder Cone volcanoes Cinder Cone volcanoes  small, steep cones formed from lava that dropped from the air after an explosive eruption  short lived explosions

13 Volcano types Composite volcanoes (Stratovolcanoes) Composite volcanoes (Stratovolcanoes)  steep sided mountains, where plates collided. Has alternating layers of lava and rock. Mt. Fuji, Japan

14 Volcano types Fissure eruptions Fissure eruptions  oozes from cracks in the earth’s surface
