volcano A volcano is a place on the Earth's surface (or any other planet's or moon's surface) where molten rock, gases and pyroclastic debris erupt through the earth's crust. Volcanoes vary quite a bit in their structure - some are cracks in the earth's crust where lava erupts, and some are domes, shields, or mountain-like structures with a crater at the summit. Some types of volcanoes include: caldera, cinder cone, hornito, lava dome, maar, mud volcano, shield volcano, spatter cone, and stratovolcano. The word volcano is from Latin; it comes from the ancient Romans god of fire and metalworking, Vulcan. |
volatiles Volatiles are elements that have a very low boiling temperature. Examples include nitrogen, helium, water, carbon dioxide. Volatiles are usually found in liquid or gaseous form (except at very cold temperatures). |
vulcanologist A vulcanologist is a scientist who studies volcanoes. |
