- Pyroclasticflow
- What is Pyroclastic Flow?
- Highly dense mixture of hot,dry
rock fragments and hot gases
that move away from the vent
once it's erupted at high speeds
- Highly dense mixture of hot,dry
rock fragments and hot gases
that move away from the vent
once it's erupted at high speeds
- How fast does it travel?
- Rock fragments ranging in size from ash
to boulders travel across the ground at
speeds greater than 80km per hour
- Rock fragments ranging in size from ash
to boulders travel across the ground at
speeds greater than 80km per hour
- How far does it travel?

- Lahars
- what are Lahars?
- they are a hot or cold
mixture of water and rock
fragments flowing down the
volcano
- How far/fast do they travel?
- small fragments of rck can
travel a few metres per
second, but a large lahar can
flow tens of metres per
seconds - too fast for people
to out run
