Volcano Preparedness
Volcanoes produce a wide variety of hazards that can
kill people and destroy property. Large explosive eruptions can endanger people
and property hundreds of miles away and even affect global climate. Life
threatening volcano hazards include gases, lava flows, lahars, landslides,
pyroclastic flows and tephra. Additionally, earthquakes and tsunamis can
arise from volcanic activity, posing still more threats. The resources
below focus on giving you a better understanding of volcano hazards and
reviewing volcano preparedness measures that can allow you to survive a volcanic
eruption.
