Volcanic eruptions occur as a result of the


accumulation of pressure beneath the Earth's
surface, where magma, molten rock from the
mantle, rises upwards. Over time, this magma
collects in chambers beneath the volcano,
exerting force against the surrounding rock. As
pressure builds, the rock eventually yields,
allowing the magma to forcefully escape
through the volcano's vent. The intensity of the
eruption varies depending on factors such as
the viscosity of the magma and the presence
of gases. Some eruptions may result in
relatively calm lava flows, while others can
produce explosive events, ejecting volcanic
ash, rocks, and gases into the atmosphere.
The volcanic activity can have significant
impacts on the surrounding environment and
communities, ranging from ashfall and lava
inundation to lahars and pyroclastic flows.
