Gas created from the lava is blown into the air which then “cools and solidifies as small rocks or cinders”. Cinder cone eruptions “take place in basaltic volcanic fields” that immensely effect the human population surrounded by it. Cinder cone eruptions majorly impact the environment by distributing volcanic gases‚ volcanic landslides and blasting tephra. One of the long-term impacts

Water’s ability to hold heat aids in cooling the erupting lava quicker than it would when exposed to the air (Mitchell 444). This article is important in order to further research by geologists and oceanographers‚ making this an interdisciplinary
