The production was not permitted to film the summit of Ngauruhoe because the Māori hold it to be sacred, but some scenes on the slopes of Mount Doom were filmed on the slopes of Ruapehu. [5] In the TV series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Mount Doom undergoes a phreatomagmatic eruption in the Second Age. This was set off when orcs ...
Mount Stromboli has been in almost continuous eruption for the past 2,000–5,000 years; [6] its last serious one occurred in 1921. [4] A pattern of eruption is maintained in which explosions occur at the summit craters, with mild to moderate eruptions of incandescent volcanic bombs , a type of tephra , at intervals ranging from minutes to hours.

In volcanology, a Strombolian eruption is a type of volcanic eruption with relatively mild blasts, typically having a Volcanic Explosivity Index of 1 or 2. [1] Strombolian eruptions consist of ejection of incandescent cinders , lapilli , and volcanic bombs , to altitudes of tens to a few hundreds of metres.
Three days later, on the morning of 27 April, Ruapehu erupted again. A series of five eruptions occurred between 7:10 a.m. and 10:18 a.m., sending surges of mud, rocks, and ash northwards across the summit plateau and producing eruption columns up to 500 m high. [45] The 1975 eruptions deepened Crater Lake from 55 to 60 m to more than 90 m. [45]
Satellite images of the 15 January 2022 eruption of Hunga Tonga-Hunga Haʻapai. This is a list of volcanoes that have had large explosive eruptions during the Holocene (since about 11,650 years Before Present), with a volcanic explosivity index (VEI) of 5 or higher, or a plume height of at least 30 km.
The eruption of Mount Doom in the episode was intended to be a "major centerpiece moment" for the series and a turning point for many character arcs. The visuals for the sequence were based on real volcanic eruptions, including (top-to-bottom) the 2021 Cumbre Vieja volcanic eruption and the 2019 Whakaari / White Island eruption.
