Felsic Magmas

Magmas that are rich in lighter elements like silicon and oxygen, usually linked with explosive volcanic eruptions due to their high viscosity and trapped gases.

High Viscosities

Describes fluids that have a thick or sticky consistency, which resist flow to a greater degree compared to fluids with low viscosities.

Gas Pressures

The force exerted by gas molecules per unit area in a containment or environment.
