So the hotter the lava, the less likley an ash eruption?Originally posted by Zkribbler
There a essentially two kinds of volcanos: shield volcanoes and cone volcanos. Hawaii has shield volcanos, where the lava comes out really hot, really fluid, and thus spreads out in a wide dome. Tahiti has cone volcanos where the lava is less hot, thicker and thus piles up into the classic volcano cone.
Because Hawaiian volcanos are more fluid, they are less explosive and thus throw up less ash. Er...ya get it?
So if you want an ash eruption, then you should just keep your lava cool?
How much time do you feel needs to take place with this lava cooling before we would see an ash eruption again?"I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic.

Yep, he can.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Hawaiian volcanoes erupt basaltic lava from deep within the earth. This type of lava is relatively fluid and not full of gas so it flows out of the volcano easily.
Continental volcanoes, like those along the Rockies and Andes erupt lava which is basically remelted crust and is sticky and full of gas - so it erupts violently throwing debris high into the air, blotting out the sun and covering everything in a gritty mess.
So there you have it - it's all down to the body chemistry of the volcano.

Okay...now I am confused. I thought lava was magma that came up through a crack in the Earth's mantle. Why the different types?"I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic.

Erm, what do you think magma is made out of? Molten rock, which is basically either a mineral/metal substance or silicon (sandstone etc.) possibly bonded to oxygen.Originally posted by PLATO

IIUC, "Crust" magma is lighter rocks and very messy, while magma from further down is likely to be have a more consistent texture and not be full of carbon (ash is carbon, right?).<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.

Volcanic ash consists of very fine rock and mineral particles less than 2 mm in diameter that are ejected from a volcanic vent. Ash is created when solid rock shatters and magma separates into minute particles during explosive volcanic activity. The usually violent nature of an eruption involving steam (phreatic eruption) results in the magma and perhaps solid rock surrounding the vent, being torn into particles of clay to sand size. The plume that is often seen above an erupting volcano is composed primarily of ash and steam. The very fine particles may be carried for many miles, settling out as a dust-like layer across the landscape. This is known as an "ash fall". The term for any material explosively thrown out from a vent is tephra or pyroclastic debris. If liquid magma is ejected as a spray, the particles will solidify in the air to small fragments of volcanic glass. Tephra particles of gravel size are termed cinders.
The ejection of large quantities of ash will produce an ash cone. A layer of volcanic ash tends to become cemented together to form a solid rock called "tuff".

Yes, I know it is molten rock. I guess I had assumed that it was all similar stuff and had never thought to differentiate it.Originally posted by snoopy369
