GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE, WE ARE THE GROUP 5 I HOPE YOU ALL STILL ALIVE AND

LISTENING.

Volcano refer to the eruption of hot molten lava from below the surface of earth.

A volcano is a vent in the earth’s crust through which Lava, Steam, ashes etc. are expelled.

Volcanic eruption is form when temperature and pressure rises,where the rock melts and moves
thru the surface and crust , kaya nagrerelease ito ng magma and gases.

Various Volcanic-Related Hazards:

Lahars

- Lahars are a specific kind of mudflow made up of volcanic debris

- a hot or cold mixture of water and rock fragments that flow quickly down the slopes of a
volcano.

Lahars can be formed in a number situation such as when small slope collapses gather water on
their way down a volcano, it calso form from heavy rainfall on loose volcanic debris , and when a
volcano erupts through a crater lake.

Destructive Characteristic of Lahars:

1. Move swiftly down valleys – lahars move rapidly down vallyes like rivers
2. Occur with or without a volcanic eruption
3. Pick up material as they travel – lahars pick up material as they travel that cause damage to
structures in their path
4. Cause serious damage to economic and environment – lahars and you know other excess
sediment can cause damage to eco nomic and envirmen like rivers and flood plains.

Signs of an impending volcanic eruption:

 Most volcanoes provide various types of warnings before eruption begins
Such an upward movement of magma from the volcano and the changes in the temperature
of the spring waters and rivers.
 People living near volcanoes may detect premonitory events before an eruption
Like the occurrence and intensity of felt earthquackes common rises before eruption begin.
And it maybe preceded by noticeable steaming.

 Measurement of Changes in Heat Flow

 Detection and interpretation of Precursory Events – it means that the monitoring system
depends on detection, they warn and evacuate people from threatened areas and to
measure the serious effects of the eruption.
