Excerpt

Andesite

Magma of intermediate composition of silica, a common product of eruptions from stratovolcanoes.

Basalt

Magma of a low silica composition has a low viscosity and usually is emplaced in lava flows or as scoria.

Dacite

Magma of a composition higher in silica, between andesite and rhyolite.

Debris avalanche

Large collapse event which produces an extensive deposit, often characterized by hummock-shaped hillocks. Occur from most likely all stratovolcanoes, due to their inherent instability.

Holocene

The time period since the end of the last glaciation (11,700 years ago to present).

Lahar

Mudflow with the remobilization of active volcanic pyroclastic deposits. Can be hot if occurring during or soon after the eruption.

Maar

Explosive crater surrounded by a ring-shaped deposit or tuff ring of pyroclasts. Form due to phreatomagmatic interactions, often in basins with extensive aquifers.

Monogenetic field or Distributed volcanism

Region featuring the evolution of cinder cones or maars, with each eruptive centre typically exhibiting only one eruption.

Phreatomagmatic

Explosive eruption resulting from the interaction between magma and water. Results in the expulsion of juvenile material. Phreatic implies no juvenile component.

Pleistocene

The epoch between 2.58 million and 11,700 years ago, which included the major period of glaciation.

Plinian

Large explosive eruption producing a high column (>20 km) and resulting in multiple hazards: extensive tephra fall and the formation of pyroclastic density currents.

Pyroclastic flow or pyroclastic density current

Gravity-driven mobile flow of hot gases mixed with ash and rocks, which descend volcano flanks at fast speeds posing a great threat to anything in their path.

Rhyolite

Evolved magma with a high silica contents, often associated with large explosive eruptions.

Strombolian

Explosive eruption of low magnitude, occur usually with low-viscosity basaltic magma. Activity that produces scoria cones: accumulation of vesiculated magma around the vent.

Surtseyan

Eruption occurring through shallow water with the formation of an island from the deposition of pyroclastic material resulting from the highly explosive interaction between magma and seawater.

Tephra

Pyroclastic material expelled into the air during explosive eruptions, largely comprising of ash <2 mm in diameter, but with larger lapilli (between 2 and 64 mm) or bombs falling closer to the volcano.

Tuff ring or cone

Low profile ring around maar or steep-sloped cone both formed from pyroclastic material expelled during phreatomagmatic eruptions.

Vulcanian

Explosive eruption of medium magnitude: result from the failure of an impermeable layer above the magma column, which restricts the process of magma degassing. Produce a lot of ballistics.

Xenolith

Material of external origin and different composition incorporated within magma. They are often pieces of upper mantle or lower crustal rocks.
