This activity formed the crater. Later, lava itself erupted in the form of lava fountaining. Spatters formed by the fountaining then formed the Corral de Coquena rampart. This is an unusual mode of activity for silicic magmas but also documented at Huaynaputina and the Cerro Chascon-Runtu Jarita complex.

The amount of volatiles in magma is directly correlated to the amount of partial melting and energy of the volcanic eruption.Hirose and Kawamoto, Earth and Planetary Science Letters, Volume 133, Issues 3-4, July 1995, Pages 463-473 The flow followed topography down a depression trending to the NE carrying numerous nodules of peridotite xenoliths that had also been blasted out by vigorous fountaining. The volcanic neck of the vent is now collapsed. It is thought that the final stage of activity was marked by a cessation of fountaining, and the remaining volumes of magma hardened to create a plug in the vent.

A littoral cone forms when lava flows from land into water. Interaction between the water and the lava leads to steam explosions. These explosions throw lava fragments into the air; under favourable circumstances these fragments pile up on land and form a cone. This activity may resemble that of fire fountaining.

These rocks were identified as lava because the unit has a highly elongated shape (1:50) and very high viscosity of the crystal-rich magma similar to those of flow-layered silicic lava. The Pagosa Peak Dacite formed by low-column pyroclastic fountaining and lateral transport as dense, poorly- inflated pyroclastic flows.

Finally, lava fountaining processes have been proposed to form balloons underwater. According to this model, slabs of magma in the water are surrounded by a thin shell which traps exoluting gases but also magma. The trapped gases inflate the shell and make it buoyant, while the remnant magma maintains the shell as it expands.

It is one of the many extinct cones that dot the isthmus of Auckland, all part of the Auckland volcanic field. The scoria cone was built by fire-fountaining from two craters. Lava flowed from the base of the cone to the north and to the northwest. It was the site of a Māori pā (fortified village), and was known as ("the flat-topped mountain") and as .

During the night of April 18, a series of large, explosive bursts occurred that may have followed collapse of parts of the cone into the vents and subsequent explosive clearing of the debris. By morning, the activity had returned to lava fountaining, and the seismic record was much quieter. The lava flows continued to thicken, and lava ponded along the central channel.

Qal'eh Hasan Ali has been active during the Quaternary, the eruptions that formed the craters probably took place between 5,000 and 50,000 years ago. Potassium-argon dating on rocks from the Great Crater have indicated an age of 119,000–112,000 years ago. No has been detected in Pakistan that could be attributed to this field. The eruptive activity that generated the craters was probably non-explosive, with fountaining.

Lava fountains were estimated to have reached heights of . The gases were carried by the convective eruption column to altitudes of about . The eruption continued until 7 February 1784, but most of the lava was ejected in the first five months. One study states that the event "occurred as ten pulses of activity, each starting with a short-lived explosive phase followed by a long- lived period of fire-fountaining".

The ignimbrites outside of the caldera formed the Pucarilla ignimbrite. This eruption from fissure vents was characterized by low fountaining of ignimbrites and a high mass flow, resulting in hot flows that reached distances of . Probably under the influence of faults that delimit the current caldera, the caldera underwent a trapdoor-like collapse. After the caldera collapse, hydrothermal activity as well as the extrusion of lava domes occurred.

Ash emissions and Strombolian explosions started from a vent on the eastern side of the Southeast Crater in mid-August 2007. On 4 September 2007, a major episode of lava fountaining occurred from the new vent on the east side of the Southeast Crater, also producing a plume of ash and scoriae which fell over the east flank of the volcano. A lava flow travelled about into the uninhabited Valle del Bove.

In July 1986, the conduit feeding magma to Puu Ōō ruptured, and the eruption abruptly shifted downrift to form the Kūpaianahā vent. With the new vent came a new style of eruption: continuous, quiet effusion from a lava lake replaced the episodic high fountaining. After a few weeks, a roof formed over the main lava outflow channel, which created a lava tube. The lava tube allowed the fluid pahoehoe lava to retain heat and flow long distances.

Tourists on the way to view eruption of the volcano, Oct. 1959 Pu'u Pua'i fountaining event, Oct. 1959 Tourists trekking along a well-worn path through the crater landscape, May 1999 The first episode had 31 million cubic meters of lava flow into Kīlauea Iki with 1 million cubic meters draining back. During the following episodes, a total of 71 million cubic meters of lava was ejected during a month-long eruption that stopped on December 20, 1959.

The Bitiche lavas cover the 8.4 million years old Vilama ignimbrites and are in part covered by the 3.49 ± 0.01 million years old Tara ignimbrite, indicating that the field formed in the late Miocene- early Pliocene at the time where volcanism in the Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex reached its maximum. The volcanic activity that formed the scoria cones was probably mainly strombolian with some lava fountaining. The start of volcanic activity may have been preceded by hydrovolcanic processes that have left characteristic deposits.
|
|
Based on the characteristics of the ignimbrite, the eruption was likely triggered by the failure of the magma chamber roof and subsequent onset of vigorous fountaining of ignimbrites through vents formed in the magma chamber roof; similar eruption conditions have been inferred for other Altiplano-Puna ignimbrites. The ignimbrite is often welded and displays joint features. It is rich in crystals but has little lithic and pumiceous content and few fiamme. The entire ignimbrite contains phenocrysts with sizes reaching about of length.

Halemaʻumaʻu, then a small upwelling in the caldera floor, was topped by a lava lake that then drained, before refilling again, forming an enormous lava lake and nearly reaching the top edge of the caldera before draining once more. This activity eventually gave way to the construction of Mauna Iki, building up the large lava shield on the volcano's southwest rift zone over a period of eight months. The eruption also featured concurrent rift activity and a large amount of lava fountaining.

|
The volume of the Incapillo ignimbrite is comparable to that of the Katmai ignimbrite. The ignimbrite was probably formed from a low-height fountaining eruption without a high eruption column, forming a base surge first and pyroclastic flows later. The change from lava dome to ignimbrite-forming eruptions may have been triggered by the injection of hotter magmas into the magma chamber or less likely by changes in the tectonic context. During the eruption, a piston-like collapse formed the caldera.

Of the 24 total volcanic fissure vents that formed during the event, 14 erupted lava to varying degrees within Leilani Estates. Fissure 8 on Luana St. was the dominant vent that produced the most output of lava, with fountaining as high as 330 feet and flow front advancement as fast as 76m/hr as it reached the ocean miles below Leilani Estates. By the time the eruption ceased on August 9 of 2018, around 200 homes had been destroyed within the subdivision.

Dates of 6.7 ± 0.4 million years ago have been obtained. The field was formed by energetic effusive eruptions; lava supply rates of up to and an emplacement time of 84-18 months for the northern and 48-7 months for the southern parts of the field have been estimated. The field was probably formed by Strombolian eruptions accompanied by lava fountaining. Magma was transported along fractures and faults, resulting in the eruption of several different batches of magma without long stalling in the upper crust.

Some of the volcanoes are surrounded by pyroclastic flow or pyroclastic fallout deposits, others are linked with lava flows. Flows run along valleys, spread over flat terrain or form delta-like structures at slope breaks, and reach lengths of over but more commonly from the source vents. The lava flows have thicknesses of and feature flow structures typical for aa lava. Pyroclastic material was often rafted by lava flows, forming isolated deposits on these, and spatter deposits were generated by Hawaii-like fire fountaining.

Puu Ōō, a cinder-and-spatter cone on Kīlauea, Hawaii A spatter cone is a low, steep-sided hill or mound that consists of welded lava fragments, called spatter, which has formed around a lava fountain issuing from a central vent. Typically, spatter cones are about high. In case of a linear fissure, lava fountaining will create broad embankments of spatter, called spatter ramparts, along both sides of the fissure. Spatter cones are more circular and cone shaped, while spatter ramparts are linear wall-like features.

At 18:30, the main vent became active and lava began to flow from the second fissure from east of the Monte Salazara cone, close to Nicolosi, at elevation in Etna's southern rift zone. A fifth fissure segment south of the Monpilieri cinder cone was briefly active on 12 March and several vents – sources disagree on the exact number – became active on 12 March around the main vent with lava fountaining. The cinder cone developed over the main vent and was almost fully formed by 13 March.

Based on past volcanic activity, the Wells Gray- Clearwater volcanic field has a long history of producing quiet lava fountaining-style eruptions. Such eruptions consist of ejection of incandescent cinder, lapilli and lava bombs to altitudes of tens to hundreds of metres. They are small to medium in volume, with sporadic violence. Since the region is mostly forested and lava flows are likely to travel long distances, it is possible lava eruptions could start large forest fires and some river valleys might be dammed.

The 1975 eruption of Mauna Loa was a short-lived Hawaiian eruption that followed 25 years of quiescence at the Hawaiian volcano Mauna Loa. The eruption began just before midnight on July 5 and involved fissures extending across the length of Moku‘āweoweo, Mauna Loa's summit caldera, and into the upper ends of the volcano's northeast and southwest rift zones. After only 6 hours, activity in Moku‘āweoweo and on the southwest rift zone ended, but lava fountaining continued along the northeast rift zone until 7:30 p.m. on July 6, when all activity ceased.
|
|
Fountains continued to migrate eastward along the northeast rift zone, but by dawn eruptive activity was largely restricted to echelon vents near the northeast rift zone at elevation. A voluminous a'a flow moved about down the north flank of Mauna Loa and threatened to cut the paved access road and powerlines to the Mauna Loa Observatory. At about 07:15 HST, fountains feeding this a'a flow subsided and it soon stopped about from the observatory road, having traveled . Fountaining continued at greatly diminished levels throughout the day, but ceased by nightfall.

Total magma production is about . The North Arch volcanic field has been the site of voluminous lava effusion and the formation of shallow magma chambers which gave rise to pit craters when they collapsed. Despite the great depth of the North Arch volcanic field, traces of explosive eruptions has been found there such as steep and low volcanic cones and deposits from fire fountaining; the formation of bubbles from volatile substances in the magma and processes involving supercritical fluids and magma-water interaction are probably involved in the explosive volcanism there.

133, ) as a process in volcanic eruption.Miller, C. Dan (1989); "Potential Hazards from Future Volcanic Eruptions in California" : Glossary of Selected Volcanic Terms, USGS Bulletin 1847, retrieved on November 4, 2013 Precursory signs were not interpreted correctly until after the eruption; the population of the island was evacuated only after the onset of the eruption. After nine months of repose, Taal reactivated on July 5, 1966 with another phreatomagmatic eruption from Mount Tabaro, followed by another similar eruption on August 16, 1967. The Strombolian eruptions which started five months after on January 31, 1968 produced the first historical lava fountaining witnessed from Taal.

Spatter cones and spatter ramparts are typically formed by lava fountaining associated with mafic, highly fluid lavas, such as those erupted in the Hawaiian Islands. As blobs of molten lava, spatter, are erupted into the air by a lava fountain, they can lack the time needed to cool completely before hitting the ground. Consequently, the spatter are not fully solid, like taffy, as they land and they bind to the underlying spatter as both often slowly ooze down the side of the cone. As a result, the spatter builds up a cone that is composed of spatter either agglutinated or welded to each other.

La Garita is also the source of at least seven major eruptions of welded tuff deposits over a span of 1.5 million years since the Fish Canyon Tuff eruption. The caldera is also known to have extensive outcrops of a very unusual lava-like rock unit, called the Pagosa Peak Dacite, made of dacite that is very similar to that of the Fish Canyon Tuff. The Pagosa Peak Dacite, which has characteristics of both lava and welded tuff, was likely erupted shortly before the Fish Canyon Tuff. The Pagosa Peak Dacite has been interpreted as having erupted during low-energy pyroclastic fountaining and has a volume of about .

In February 2008, scientists announced that drilling had discovered a scoria cone buried within the mud filling the explosion crater. Although newspaper journalists inferred that the discovered scoria cone was a much younger and different volcano from Panmure Basin, geologists consider that the scoria cone was produced as the second phase of the eruption of Panmure Basin explosion crater and tuff ring. The explosive phase was produced by the interaction of the magma with cold groundwater but once the water was used up the eruption switched to a dry phase of fire-fountaining producing the scoria cone from the same vent.Hayward, B.W., Murdoch, G., Maitland, G. 2011.

The southeastern portion of the patera, an area of dark terrain in Voyager 1 imagery, is the most active region of the Pele volcano, with the most extensive region of hot lava at Pele. This area is thought to be a vigorously overturning lava lake, suggestive of a combination of a large mass flux of lava to the lake from a magma reservoir below the surface and a large mass fraction of dissolved volatiles like sulfur dioxide and diatomic sulfur. Given Pele's brightness at near-infrared wavelengths, activity at this portion of the lava lake may also result in lava fountaining. Lava temperatures measured using the near-infrared emission spectrum of thermal hotspots observed at Pele are consistent with silicate basaltic lava erupting at the lava lake.

The fissure rapidly extended from 300 metres to a length of , crossing the island from one shore to the other. Submarine activity also occurred just offshore at the northern and southern ends of the fissure. Spectacular lava fountaining 50 to 150 metres high occurred along the whole fissure, which reached a maximum length of about during the first few hours of the eruption, but activity soon became concentrated on one vent, about north of the old volcanic cone of Helgafell and just outside the eastern edge of the town. During the early days of the eruption, the rate of lava and tephra emission from the fissure was estimated to be 100 cubic metres per second (3,500 cubic feet per second), and within two days, the lava fountains had built a cinder cone over 100 metres (330 ft) high.

The eruption also completely destroyed the tourist station Piano Provenzana, on the northeastern flank of the volcano, and part of the tourist station "Etna Sud" around the Rifugio Sapienza on the south flank. Footage from the eruptions was recorded by Lucasfilm and integrated into the landscape of the planet Mustafar in the 2005 film Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. The Rifugio Sapienza is near the site of a cable car station which had previously been destroyed in the 1983 eruption; it has now been rebuilt. Following a slow and non- destructive lava outflow on the upper southeastern flank between September 2004 and March 2005, intense eruptions occurred at the Southeast Crater in July–December 2006. These were followed by four episodes of lava fountaining, again at the Southeast Crater, on 29 March 11 April 29 April and 7 May 2007.

Outburst eruptions at Tvashtar in November 1999 and February 2007 centred on a long, tall lava "curtain" produced at a small patera nested within the larger Tvashtar Paterae complex. The large amount of exposed molten lava at these lava fountains has provided researchers with their best opportunity to measure the actual temperatures of Ionian lavas. Temperatures suggestive of an ultramafic lava composition similar to Pre-Cambrian komatiites (about ) are dominant at such eruptions, though superheating of the magma during ascent to the surface cannot be ruled out as a factor in the high eruption temperatures. Two Galileo images, taken 168 days apart, showing the effects of an explosion-dominated eruption at Pillan Patera in 1997 Although the more explosive, lava-fountaining stage may last only a few days to a week, explosion-dominated eruptions can continue for weeks to months, producing large, voluminous silicate lava flows.

The most recent set of anathemas that were added to the Synodikon of Orthodoxy is titled "Chapters against Barlaam and Akindynos"; these contain anathemas and acclamations that are the expression of the official Palamist doctrine. The Synodikon thus canonizes the principal theses formulated by Gregory Palamas : #The light which shone at Tabor, during the Transfiguration of the Savior, is declared to be neither a creature nor the essence of God, but the uncreated and natural grace and illumination fountaining eternally and inseparably from the divine essence itself: μήτε κτίσμα εἶναι θειότατον ἐκεῖνο φῶς μήτε οὐσίαν Θεοῦ, ἀλλ᾽ ἄκτιστον καὶ φυσικὴν χάριν καὶ ἔλλαμψιν ἐξ αὐτῆς τῆς θείας οὐσίας ἀχωρίστως ἀεὶ προϊοῦσαν (1st anathema). #There are in God two inseparable things: the essence and the natural and substantial operation flowing from the essence in line with the relationship of cause and effect. The essence is imparticipable, the operation is participable; both the one and the other are uncreated and eternal: κατὰ τὸ τῆς Ἐκκλησίας εὐσεβὲς φρόνημα ὁμολογοῦμεν οὐσίαν ἐπὶ Θεοῦ καὶ οὐσιώδε καὶ φυσικὴν τούτου ἐνέργειαν ... εἶναι καὶ διαφορὰν ἀδιάστατον κατὰ τὰ ἄλλα καὶ μάλιστα τὰ αἴτιον καὶ αἰτιατόν, καὶ ἀμέθεκτον καὶ μεθεκτόν, τὸ μὲν τῆς οὐσίας, τὸ δὲ ἐνεργείας (2nd anathema).
