Comparison of the four types of volcano.
1. The magma that forms stratovolcanoes is thicker and more viscous. Viscous lava generates more pressure, which leads to more violent eruptions. Furthermore, the thick lava cannot flow far down the volcano's flanks before solidifying. As a result of the viscous lava, stratovolcanoes have steep sides.
2. Shield volcanoes are named by its shape, which resembles a large shield laying on its side. They have a significantly wider base than composite volcanoes and are much flatter on top. They may be rather enormous, despite the fact that they are not particularly steep.
3. Cinder cones are both the most common and the smallest form of volcano. On a smaller scale, the cinder cone resembles a composite volcano. They rarely rise above 300 meters, but their sides are steeper than those of a composite volcano. At the peak, they frequently have a crater. Cinder cones are made up of small rock fragments heaped on top of one other. Normally, these volcanoes do not spew lava streams.
4. The most hazardous type of volcano is a supervolcano. A supervolcano eruption might drastically alter life on Earth for many years. Until this millennium, supervolcanoes were not even recognized as volcanoes.
