Hazards of Volcanoes
The type of volcano ,whether it is deposite, cinder cone, or a shield, is an important factor on how much damage is done and any hazards.  A volcano hazard refers to the chance that an area or community will be affected, loss of life, property, or even profetion, by any volcano.  Any area within 200miles of a volcano may be in a hazardous area.  Volcano hazards include directed blast, lava flow, avalaches, volcanic gases, and tsunamis.  Due to technology less lifes have been lossed because scientists can predict when a volcano will erupt.
