WEBA shield volcano is a type of volcano named for its low profile, resembling a shield lying on the ground. It is formed by the eruption of highly fluid (low viscosity) lava, which travels farther and forms thinner flows than the more viscous lava erupted from a stratovolcano.

WEBSep 28, 2023 · Shield volcanoes are a type of volcano that erupts basalt lava. Because basalt has a low viscosity (more watery), it can flow on the surface better. So when these types of volcanoes erupt, lava flows outwards at large distances. For a shield volcano, violent explosions are possible. But they’re more common for stratovolcanoes.

WEBNational Park Shield Volcanoes. At least 13 national parks contain shield volcanoes, including: Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park contains parts of Mauna Loa and Kīlauea, two of the most active shield volcanoes on Earth. Although these volcanoes are adjacent to one another, they have separate magma systems and are thus independent of one another.

WEBShield volcanoes consist largely of thin lava flows, with minor pyroclastic (mainly ash) layers. Their subaerial (above sea-level) slopes are mostly 4-8 degrees, having steep-walled summit calderas and also pit craters (sinkholes) that are similar to calderas in form but much smaller.

WEBDaniel Nelson. 17, November 2017 | Last Updated: 3, March 2020. A shield volcano is the largest type of volcano on Earth, with low viscosity lava flows and a wide broad shape. The low viscosity, runny, nature of the lava means it travels in streams far from the source and covers many square miles.
