A volcanic earthquake is a type of earthquake that is related with volcanic activity.

Even in such instances,


the disturbance is most likely the result of a sudden slip of rock masses next to the volcano and the
subsequent release of elastic strain energy. The stored energy, on the other hand, could be of
hydrodynamic origin, owing to heat provided by magma moving in reservoirs beneath the volcano or the
discharge of gas under pressure.
