[it. volcano, vulcano, fr. l. vulcanus vulkan, the god of fire. see: vulkan.] (geol.) a mountain or hill, usually more or less conical in form, from which lava, cinders, steam, sulphur gases, and the like, are ejected; -- often popularly called a burning mountain.note: volcanoes include many of the most conspicuous and lofty mountains of the earth, as mt. vesuvius in italy (4,000 ft. high), mt. loa in hawaii (14,000 ft.), cotopaxi in south america (nearly 20,000 ft.), which are examples of active volcanoes. the crater of a volcano is usually a pit-shaped cavity, often of great size. the summit crater of mt. loa has a maximum length of 13,000 ft., and a depth of nearly 800 feet. beside the chief crater, a volcano may have a number of subordinate craters.volcano n.

The volcano erupted last year killing about 600 people. volcanoes volcanos a mountain with a large hole at the top, through which lava (=very hot liquid rock) is sometimes forced out. Vent in the crust of the Earth from which molten rock, debris, and steam issue. Volcanoes are commonly divided into two broad types. Fissure volcanoes occur along fractures in the crust and may extend for many miles; lava is ejected relatively quietly and continuously and forms enormous plains or plateaus of volcanic rock. Central volcanoes have a single vertical lava pipe and tend to develop a conical profile; lava flows from the throat and follows the easiest path downhill. Often in these volcanoes highly viscous lava clogs the throat, causing a pressure buildup that is relieved only by violent explosion and eruption. Such eruptions may completely remove the top of the cone and occasionally also part of its interior.
