    The document categorizes volcanoes based on their activity level, eruption type, and structure. It lists shield volcanoes and strombolian eruptions under active volcanoes, and stratovolcanoes/composite volcanoes and phreatic/hydrothermal eruptions under inactive volcanoes. Shield volcanoes are characterized by low dome shapes from fluid basaltic lava flows.
