YASUR VOLCANO ERUPTION - TANNA The dance of the molten lava, the magic show of an eruption as closely as possible to the eruptive vent. Photo of a mini lava lake showing the inside of the vent. The surface of the incandescent lava forms a viscous volcanic plug of lave at the exit vent. The surface is swelled by the gas pressure below.
The explosion of a gas bubble shredded in tatters the incandescent lava, which is thrown by swirling outside of the volcanic vent.
