  2. Stratovolcano - Wikipedia

    The magma then rises through the crust, incorporating silica-rich crustal rock, leading to a final intermediate composition. When the magma nears the top surface, it pools in a magma chamber within the crust below the stratovolcano. [7] The processes that trigger the final eruption remain a question for further research.

  3. Magma chamber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma_chamber

    A magma chamber is a large pool of liquid rock beneath the surface of the Earth. The molten rock, or magma, in such a chamber is less dense than the surrounding country rock, which produces buoyant forces on the magma that tend to drive it upwards. [1] If the magma finds a path to the surface, then the result will be a volcanic eruption ...

  4. Types of volcanic eruptions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_volcanic_eruptions

    There are three main types of volcanic eruption: Magmatic eruptions are the most well-observed type of eruption. They involve the decompression of gas within magma that propels it forward. Phreatic eruptions are driven by the superheating of steam due to the close proximity of magma.

  5. Lassen Volcanic National Park - Wikipedia

    Lassen Volcanic National Park is a national park of the United States in northeastern California. The dominant feature of the park is Lassen Peak, the largest plug dome volcano in the world and the southernmost volcano in the Cascade Range. [3] Lassen Volcanic National Park is one of the few areas in the world where all four types of volcanoes ...

    2; the higher the silica content, the greater the ability of the magma to trap and hold on to gas and water vapor. When high-silica magma rises to the Earth's surface, the trapped gases and vapors can erupt explosively to produce ash clouds and pyroclastic flows that consist of superheated gas, ash and volcanic fragments.

  7. Volcanic and igneous plumbing systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanic_and_igneous...

    Volcanic and igneous plumbing systems (VIPS) consist of interconnected magma channels and chambers through which magma flows and is stored within Earth's crust. [ 1] Volcanic plumbing systems can be found in all active tectonic settings, such as mid-oceanic ridges, subduction zones, and mantle plumes, when magmas generated in continental ...

    1980. Mount Malinao is a potentially active [3] stratovolcano located in the Bicol Region of the Philippines. The volcano displays strong fumarolic activity which is harnessed for generating electricity. Located on its slope is Tiwi Geothermal Power Plant, one of the first geothermal energy plant commissioned in the country.

    The Moon’s south pole was once covered in an ocean of liquid molten rock, according to scientists. The findings back up a theory that magma formed the Moon's surface around 4.5 billion years ago.
