The blast was preceded by two months of intense activity that included over 10,000 earthquakes, hundreds of small phreatic (steam blasts) , explosions and the north side bulge. A magnitude 5.1 earthquake below the volcano at 8:32 am started the eruption. MSH is still a potentially dangerous and active volcano even though it has been quiet since 1995. In the last 515 years there have been four major eruptions and dozens of lesser eruptions. Two of the eruptions were only two years apart. In 1480, the eruption was about five times larger than the one in May 1980. There have been even larger eruptions during MSH' 50,000 year lifetime. After the May 18, 1980 eruption, there have been five smaller explosive eruptions over a five month period. Since then, there have been 16 dome building eruptions through October 1986 when the new dome in the crater was formed. As the mountain was torn open, the pressure in inside was suddenly relieved. The rock shattered inside the mountain was exploded out the top at speeds over 200 miles per hour. The blast was so strong that it leveled whole forest of fir trees. Geologist call this a "stone wind" since the winds carried the rocks form the blast with them. The rocks gave the winds extra force that let them flatten the trees. 150 square miles of land was leveled. The edges of this area also lost their forested areas from the heat of the blast and the fires it caused. The original blast of the

Albeit no emissions of magma or volcanic cinder have happened for some a large number of years, future ejections are likely. In the following few hundred years, risks will most likely be restricted to continuous fountain and hot-spring action, incidental steam blasts, and moderate to vast quakes. To better comprehend Yellowstone's well of lava and quake risks and to help ensure people in general, the U.s. Geographical Survey, the University of Utah, and Yellowstone National Park structured the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory, which persistently screens movement in the

Volcanic eruptions happen all across the surface of the globe, many argue that if controlled and monitored they would have little effect on the population. However others argue that some volcanic events are too powerful or unpredictable to control.

This photo is of the Mount Pavlof, which is a volcano. This Mountain is located in the alaska peninsula wildlife refuge & the last time activity was recorded was on the date August 4, 2016. This Mountain is located about 625 miles southwest of Anchorage, Alaska.Mount Pavlof is a largely snow covered, cone shaped mountain with a high ridge extending to the southwest towards Little Pavlof. The mountain is about 7 km in diameter and has active vents on the north and east sides close to the summit. It is situated high on the northeastern flank of Emmons Lake caldera along a northeast-trending alignment of vents that includes Little Pavlof, Pavlof Sister, and several intra caldera cones.It’s one of the most active in the United States with eruptions

On the 5th of April, 1815, after laying quiet for over 5000 years, the first eruption began, lofting a volcanic column 25 km (15.5 miles) into the sky. This initial eruption was heard over 1000 km away.

Mount Rainier is one of the most dangerous volcanic eruptions since it is still active and threatens the surrounding area. Mount Rainier is a stratovolcano at Cascade Volcanic Arc.

A paper published by NCR (Nature Scientific Reports) states that a lava bubble is expanding inside the Kikai Caldera. The Kikai Caldera a massive underwater volcano. More than 31 cubic kilometers of lava have pushed the seabed up around 2,000 feet, now the volcano’s peak is sitting only 98 feet below the ocean’s surface. The lava bubble is starting to build up large amounts of pressure. Japanese volcanologists say they have found evidence of a massive eruption at Kikai Caldera 7000 years ago, and another one 95,000 years ago. That may mean that their is going to be another one, and soon. Due to monitoring this volcano they have been able to know about when the volcano may erupt. They have also been able to tell what percent the volcano has of erupting, although it is only 1% of a catastrophic eruption it has the potential to kill 100 million people, says Volcanologist Yoshiyuki Tatsumi. Another case of positive volcano

There are 80 volcanos on the Aleutian Islands, while only 41 of them are active. The volcanos create an arc across the Bering Sea,from the Aleutian Range stretching over to the Alaska Peninsula.The largest eruption in the last 100 years was Mount Katmai, it was the biggest eruption of the twentieth century and the date of the last eruption was in 1912. The Aleutian Volcanoes erupt so often that they have not been studied long enough to predict a recurrence rate. In the Aleutian Volcanoes, Pavlof, Akutan, and Shishaldin are the most active. Pavlof is the most active out of the three in the United States since 1980-2016. Akutan hasn't been active

Many, many volcanoes exist. However, some of these are dormant while others are active. Volcanoes tend to switch between these two roles. A volcano that was dormant a few years ago may be active now and a volcano that was active a few years ago may be dormant now. This can create many benefits in the area around the volcano, whether it be very close or very far.

-It can spread long distances or not that far depending on the size of the volcano.

In fact, the volcano has a history of being quite active. There has been an eruption of some sort nearly every year since 2001, one of the largest being in 2005 when explosions of lava landed as far as 3-4 kilometers from the site of the Mexican volcano (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volc%C3%A1n_de_Colima). According to NOAA advisory regarding what is known about the volcano so far active lava flow can be seen coming from the volcano, and clouds of smoke have cause trouble for airports in the area

Volcanoes are typically classified as a natural disaster. This is mainly because of their destructive nature to the environment and society. Eyjafjallajokull is a subgalcial volcano based in Iceland. Its structure consists of a caldera-crater at its top and its overall volcanic structure is a stratovolcano. Eyjafjallajokull is a great example of a volcano which has the ability to cause major issues in terms of society and the environment. Although, Eyjafjallajokull’s most recent major eruption, which lasted through March 20 2010 – June 23 2010, didn’t cause any deaths, it still caused great damage to its surrounding environment, with its eruption releasing tephra, ash, lava and dirty thunderstorms. Eyjafjallajokull’s eruption

Eyjafjallajökull, or translated directly to island-mountain-glacier is a fairly active stratovolcano located on the south coast of Iceland. The mountain stands at about 5,400ft at its highest summit and erupted most recently in spring of 2010. The Eyjafjallajökull eruption of 2010 was the first in 190 years. The volcano is completely covered by an ice cap and is one of around 130 volcanoes located in Iceland, it is also one of the smallest. Previous eruptions occurred in the years 920, 1612, and 1821-1823. The 2010 eruption of the volcano began March 10, 2010 and was declared officially over in October of the same year. This eruption caused major disruption in air travel and grounded thousands of flights in and around Europe.

Volcanic Eruptions are one of the most feared, destructive and deadliest disasters killing anything that is near it.
