What are the main hazards from a quiet volcanic eruption?
Answer:
The primary hazards involve lava, gases, and pressure.
A quiet volcanic eruption can release poisonous gases (such as sulfur compounds) which can poison the air or water supplies. Also, lava flows can create dangerous wildfires, and destabilize slopes leading to landslides. Additionally, they can add stress to underground rock formations and potentially trigger earthquakes.
