Shield VolcanoThe Shield Volcano is a quiet erupting volcano. It lets out steam, gasses, and water vapor. It is flatter than a composite volcano, like a warriors shield.

Examples of Shield Volcanoes.

MaunaKea Volcano

Composite VolcanoComposite volcanos are louder and more destructive than other volcanoes. They are very explosive because gases are trapped in the molten rock. They are pointed in shape.

Examples of Composite Volcanoes
