FACTS ON VOLCANOES

• Lava is magma that reaches the surface. This
  liqueified rock is many times hotter than boiling
  water and glows bright yellow, orange and red
• Lava may erupt in explosive bursts, like giant
  fountains, or flow gently down the slopes of a
  mountain

MORE FACTS ON VOLCANOES

• Lava can leave a volcano from the top vent or
  emerge from vents along the side.
• Except for the molten rock that lands back inside
  the main crater to continue bubbling, all lava
  eventually cools and solidifies.

or a bomb of some sort. When a volcano occurs hot
magma starts pouring out.

  especially when theyre in a big area with lots
  of buildings

WHAT VOLCANOES CAUSE
When an underwater volcano erupts it can cause a
tsunami, but if there is an earthquake that
erupts under the sea it could also cause a
tsunami.
This is when a tsunami is occurring.
This is another picture of when it is in the
middle of occurring.
This is what a city looks like after it has
occurred.
