Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III. PHENOMENA OF ORDINARY SUBAERIAL ERUPTIONS. 1. Phase of permanent eruption.?The instances are rare in which a volcano remains permanently in eruption. Those best known are Stromboli, one of the Lipari Isles, which has been incessantly active since the time of Homer at least; Masaya and Amatitlan, in the province of Nicaragua; Izalco, on the west coast of Central America, which has been in eruption since 1728; Sangay, in South America, which remains permanently in eruption; the Ilha da Fuego, one of the islands off the Cape de Verde, constantly active since 1770. Probably several of the as yet little-known volcanos of Sumatra, Java, and the other portions of that great linear range of vents already mentioned, which, traversing the Pacific, embraces the whole eastern coast of Asia, are also permanently eruptive. 2. Phase of moderate activity.?But in general the eruptions of a volcano are intermittent, the intervals between each varying from months to centuries. When the eruptions are constant, or very frequent, they are usually of a comparatively placid character, as if a permanent issue had established itself, and acted as a kind of safety-valve, for the outward discharge of the redundant caloric or heated matter below, the accumulation of which would otherwise bring about occasional eruptions of far greater violence. In conformity with this supposition, when an eruption breaks out after a long interval of tranquillity, it is usually violent in proportion. Such extraordinary developments of volcanic energy may be styled paroxysmal. INTERMITTENT AND MODERATE ACTIVITY. 17 Eruptions of extraordinary violence are, however, not unfre- quently preceded by a prolonged phase of moderate activity, which apparently did not suffice to discharge the redundant ...

Download or read book Volcanoes written by John P. Lockwood and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-26 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volcanoes are essential elements in the delicate global balance of elemental forces that govern both the dynamic evolution of the Earth and the nature of Life itself. Without volcanic activity, life as we know it would not exist on our planet. Although beautiful to behold, volcanoes are also potentially destructive, and understanding their nature is critical to prevent major loss of life in the future. Richly illustrated with over 300 original color photographs and diagrams the book is written in an informal manner, with minimum use of jargon, and relies heavily on first-person, eye-witness accounts of eruptive activity at both "red" (effusive) and "grey" (explosive) volcanoes to illustrate the full spectrum of volcanic processes and their products. Decades of teaching in university classrooms and fieldwork on active volcanoes throughout the world have provided the authors with unique experiences that they have distilled into a highly readable textbook of lasting value. Questions for Thought, Study, and Discussion, Suggestions for Further Reading, and a comprehensive list of source references make this work a major resource for further study of volcanology. Volcanoes maintains three core foci: Global perspectives explain volcanoes in terms of their tectonic positions on Earth and their roles in earth history Environmental perspectives describe the essential role of volcanism in the moderation of terrestrial climate and atmosphere Humanitarian perspectives discuss the major influences of volcanoes on human societies. This latter is especially important as resource scarcities and environmental issues loom over our world, and as increasing numbers of people are threatened by volcanic hazards Readership Volcanologists, advanced undergraduate, and graduate students in earth science and related degree courses, and volcano enthusiasts worldwide.
