A violent volcanic eruption is associated with the release of pyroclastic materials, which includes clouds of ash, gas, and rock fragments. An example of this can be seen in the eruption of the Cleveland Volcano in the Aleutian Islands. ;

Pyroclastic materials are released during violent volcanic eruptions, indicating an explosive eruption. These eruptions involve the rapid ejection of gas, ash, and rock fragments at high velocities. Notable examples include the eruptions of Mount Vesuvius and Mount St. Helens, both of which resulted in significant destruction and loss of life.
