Kinds of Volcanoes


 People who study volcanoes are known as Volcanologists.  Volcanologists have seperated volcanoes into three different groups.  There is the Shield Volcano, the Dome volcano, and the Cinder Cone Volcano.  The Shield Volcano has soft, smooth Type of hills, just like a shield except for the soft part.  All the types of layers that a Shield Volcano has is some sort of volcanic rock which when melted flows extremely easy.
