Objectives
to identify the types of
eruption
to differentiate the
different types of eruption
 Types of Volcanic Eruptions

Volcanic activity ranges from the

release of gases, non-explosive lava
emission to extreme violent
explosive burst that can last for
several hours
 2 Types of eruption

Explosive Eruption Effusive Eruption

Characterized by
gas-driven
Outpouring of lava
explosion that
to the ground
propels magma and
tephra
 3 Metatypes of eruptions

Magmatic Phreatomagmatic Phreatic

ejection of a violent
lava or tephra volcano Mainly
from a magma eruption that characterized
source within results in the because of its
the earth interaction of steam type of
magma and water eruption

Types of
Eruption
 Hawaiian

A type of eruption where the lava

flows in different direction from
the summit. Also creates lava
fountains
Hawaiian
 Strombolian

Short-lived eruption and is

categorized as explosive. This
eruption is driven by the bursting
of gas bubbles
Strombolian
 Vulcanian

Vulcanian eruption is a steam-driven

eruption. This occurs because of the
interaction of magma and water.
Vulcanian
 Pelean

A violent type of eruption. Weeks

before the explosive eruption, a
volcano emits ash. It also makes
landslides of lava coming from the
summit
Pelean
 Plinian

Considered as the most explosive

especially in terms of emitting ash
that can extend ten miles into the
stratosphere.
Plinian
 Surtseyan

A hydromagmatic eruption that takes

place in shallow seas or lakes and
magma interacts with water forming
steam.
Surtseyan
 Submarine

An eruption that occurs beneath the

sea floor. Passive lava flows along
the seafloor. It is uncommon for
submarine eruptions to be explosive.
Submarine
 Subglacial

Occurs when an ice-covered volcano

erupt, resulting in the interaction
of magma with ice and snow.
Subglacial
 Phreatic

Also called as steam-blast eruptions

caused by the heating of cold
surface water by the volcano
activity.
Phreatic

Assessment
 E _ p _ _ _ i _ e

A type of eruption that is

characterized by gas-driven
explosion that propels magma and
tephra
 _ a g _ a t _ c

A metatype of eruption that ejects

lava or tephra from a magma source
within the earth
 P _ r _ a t _ _

A metatype of eruption is mainly

characterized because of its steam
type eruption
 E _ f _ s _ _ e

A type of eruption that doesn’t have

explosive characteristics.
Categorized because of lava
outpouring to the ground.
 P _ r _ _ t o _ a g _ _ t _ c

A metatype of eruption that is

categorized because of its explosive
feature. Results in interaction
between magma and water.
 H _ _ _ _ _ a n

A magmatic type of eruption that

creates lava fountains and lava that
flows in different directions from
the summit.
 V u _ c _ _ i a _

Steam-driven eruption, caused by

interaction of magma and water
 _ t _ o _ b _ l _ _ n

Short-lived, results in exploding of

gas bubbles.
 P e _ e _ n

Weeks before the eruption, the

volcano emits ashes.
 P l _ n _ _ n

Considered as the most explosive,

has the ability to emit ash that
extends ten miles in to the
stratosphere
