	Volcanoes of Italy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Italy is one of the most volcanically active countries in mainland Europe, possessing the largest volcanoes on the continent, as well as the continent's only active volcanoes.
		Three main clusters of volcanism exist: a line of volcanic centres running northwest along the central part of the Italian mainland; a cluster in the northeast of Sicily; and another cluster around the Mediterranean island of Pantelleria.
		Vulcanello is a small volcano connected by an isthmus to the island of Vulcano, which erupted out of the sea in 183 BC and showed occasional activity thereafter until the 16th century.

	Mount Etna - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		It is the largest volcano in Europe, standing about 3,320 m (10,900 ft) high with a basal circumference of 140 km, making it the highest mountain in Italy south of the Alps.
		It is by far the largest of the four active volcanos in Italy, being nearly three times the height of the next largest, Mount Vesuvius.
		It is one of the most active volcanoes in the world and is in an almost constant state of eruption.

	Volcanoes
		Volcanoes tend to cluster along narrow mountainous belts where folding and fracturing of the rocks provide channelways to the surface for the escape of magma.
		However, some active volcanoes are not associated with plate boundaries, and many of these so-called "intra-plate" volcanoes form roughly linear chains in the interior of some oceanic plates.
		Research on the volcano's geologic past extends the data base for refined estimates of the recurrence intervals of active versus dormant periods in the history of the volcano.

		Scientists at the Montserrat Volcano Observatory warned the volcano's dome, a mound of debris in its crater, was unstable and told residents of the Caribbean island to stay away from the rumbling mountain.
		Italian experts are trying to determine whether 200 small earthquakes that shook the slopes of Mount Etna last month were advance warnings of the volcano's first significant eruption in 6 years.
		Kilauea is the youngest of the subaerial volcanoes on the Island of Hawaii and lies at the southeast end of the Hawaiian chain.

		A volcano is a place on the Earth's surface (or any other planet's or moon's surface) where molten rock, gases and pyroclastic debris erupt through the earth's crust.
		Volcanoes vary quite a bit in their structure - some are cracks in the earth's crust where lava erupts, and some are domes, shields, or mountain-like structures with a crater at the summit.
		Rock also comes from volcanoes in other forms, including ash (finely powdered rock that looks like dark smoke coming from the volcano), cinders (bits of fragmented lava), and pumice (light-weight rock that is full of air bubbles and is formed in explosive volcanic eruptions - this type of rock can float on water).
