VOLCANO, geological landform, consisting of a
fissure in the earth's crust, above which a cone of
volcanic material has accumulated. At the top of the
cone is a bowl-shaped vent called a crater. The cone
is formed by the deposition of molten or solid matter
that flows or is ejected through the vent from the
interior of the earth. The study of volcanoes and
volcanic phenomena is called volcanology.
Most volcanoes are composite landforms built up
partly of LAVA, (q.v.) flows and partly of fragmental
materials. Italy's ETNA, in Sicily, and VESUVIUS
(qq.v.), near Naples, are examples of composite
cones. In successive eruptions, the solid materials fall
around the vent on the slopes of the cone, while lava
streams issue from the vent and from fissures on the
flanks of the cone. Thus, the cone is built up of layers
of fragmental materials and flows of lava, all inclined
outward away from the vent. Some enormous,
craterlike basins, called calderas, at the top of long-
dormant or extinct volcanoes, are eventually
occupied by deep lakes, such as Crater Lake in
Oregon (see CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK,).
Some calderas are the result of cataclysmic
explosions that destroy the erupting volcano; the
volcanic islands of Thera, Greece, and Krakatau,
Indonesia, and Crater Lake are in this category.
Others form when the subterranean magma chamber,
emptied by repeated eruptions, can no longer support
the weight of the volcanic pile above it and so
collapses. Many volcanoes
