Volcanic eruptions are geological phenomena that occur when there is an explosion or release of magma, gases, and other materials from a volcano. This process can happen when tectonic plates shift, leading to magma rising from beneath the Earth’s crust. Eruptions can vary widely in intensity and form, producing lava flows, ash clouds, pyroclastic flows, and volcanic gases. Eruptions can significantly affect the surrounding environment, including climate, air quality, and ecosystems. They can also pose risks to human life, infrastructure, and agriculture. Volcanic eruptions are categorized into types based on their characteristics, such as effusive eruptions, which produce flowing lava, and explosive eruptions, which can spray ash and debris over considerable distances.
