There are explosions in and on the surface of the sun, but as for volcanoes like here on earth no there are none. Since the surface of the sun is molten (which means not solid) there are no mountains on the sun.

WATER: water in touch with hot rock (or magma) changes into steam... the kind of eruption is named a phreatomagmatic eruption.\n\nSILICA: at greater percent of silica in magma, stronger eruption the volvano makes....

Mauna Loa is a shield volcano, and as such it has comparatively gentle eruptions (as compared to stratovolcanoes, such as Mt. St. Helens.)  Shield volcanoes also produce high temperature low-viscosity basaltic lava, which contributes to the eruptions being gentle (except in the case of gas in the lava, which can cause fire fountains).\nMore information on shield volcanoes can be found here:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shield_volcano

You can find the general or exact locations on this site:\n\nhttp://www.volcano.si.edu/world/\n\nIt takes just that little bit of work to find them... and if it doesn't work, type every keyword you know into Google.

1st answerer is good on location.  Difference between the types are due to the composition of the lava and where they occur.\n\nShield volcanoes, such as those found in Hawaii, have magma that is very low in silica, high in basalt (often referred to as "basaltic" volcanoes).  This means that the lava flows easily, instead of exploding.  That is why there is not a steep slope to the volcano and the biggest threat is just to remain out of the lavas way.\n\nStrato-volcanoes (Mt. St Helens) are found in subduction zones and produce a lava that is described as Andesitic (named after the Andes Mountains in South America).  This lava is high in Silica, which makes it much more viscous, and therefore, more explosive.  This explosiviness defines the shape of the cone, with much steeper sides.  With these types of volcanoes you have the explosive lava threat, but you are also threatened by pyro-clastic flows, and lahars.\n\nCinder cones are the same, compositionally as strato-volcanoes, but are not always located in a subduction zone, and are usually quite alot smaller.

Hi,\n\nChirripo is not a volcano. The Talamanca Mountainrange where Chirripo lies was formed in the inferior Pleiocene due to the pressure excerted by the Cocos Plate.\n\nC

Well...\n\nhttp://volcano.und.edu/\nhttp://www.volcanoes.com/\nhttp://volcanoes.usgs.gov/\nhttp://vulcan.wr.usgs.gov/Volcanoes/\nhttp://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/volc/text.html\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcano\nhttp://www.usgs.gov/hazards/volcanoes/\nhttp://www.volcano.si.edu/world/\nhttp://www.cdli.ca/CITE/volcano.htm\n\nOkay, some of these rotate around grouped sites where many sites join together, but other than the USGS sites, I think most of these are individual... I haven't checked on them in a while, so yeah.

The most common place to find shield volcanoes is over hotspots (such as Hawai'i, the Galapagos, etc.). This is because hotspot magmas are almost always hot basalts and therefore the erupted lavas have low viscosities. Low viscosity lavas cannot be piled up very steeply so they form shield volcanoes.\nSubduction-zone magmas are almost always cooler and they are higher in silica, both qualities that make the lavas more viscous. These magmas are able to pile up into steep domes and additionally make the volcanoes more explosive so that they have a greater percentage of ash. This makes the volcanoes steep strato-cones instead of shields. It isn't impossible to find shield volcanoes along lines of arc volcanoes (for example Masaya in Nicaragua), but it is rare.

There are three types of lava and lava flows: pillow, pahoehoe, and aa. Pillow lavas are volumetrically the most abundant type because they are erupted at ocean ridges and because they make up the submarine portion of seamounts and large intraplate volcanoes, like the Hawaii-Emperor seamount chain. Pahoehoe is the second most abundant type of lava flow.\n\nEruptions under water or ice make pillow lava. Pillow lavas have elongate, interconnected flow lobes that are elliptical or circular in cross-section. \n\n"Pahoehoe" and "aa" are Hawaiian words that describe lava. Pahoehoe lava is characterized by a smooth, billowy, or ropy surface. Pahoehoe flows tend to be relatively thin, from a few inches to a few feet thick. In map-view the flows tend to be narrow and elongate. \n\n    Aa is characterized by a rough, jagged, spinose, and generally clinkery surface. Aa lava flows tend to be relatively thick compared to pahoehoe flows. During the early episodes of the current eruption of Kilauea volcano, aa flows up to 36 feet (11 m) thick surged through the Royal Gardens subdivision at rates as great as 108 ft/min (33 m/min). Pictures in Hawaiian Tour Guide illustrate many of the points noted above.\n\nAll volcanic eruptions produce lava. The lava can take one of two forms: lava flows or pyroclastics. We already described lava flows. Pyroclastics are pieces of lava explosively thrown out of a volcano by the expansion of gas bubbles. Pyroclasts can take many forms depending on the violence of the eruption, type of eruption, and composition of magma/lava. Two types of pyroclasts that I'm sure you are familiar with are ash and cinders. Ash is produced by very violent eruptions that fragment the lava into pieces smaller than 2 mm (0.08 inch). An excellent example of an ash producing eruption is the May 18, 1980, eruption of Mount St. Helens. Cinders are pieces of fragmented lava in the size range of 2-64 mm (0.08-2.56 inches). A good example of an eruption that produced a cinder cone is Paricutin in central Mexico.\n\nLava and pyroclasts have a variety of uses including building or ornamental stone and road material. Volcanic rocks also make an excellent substrate for agriculture.

I haven't come across a volcano named "El Burrito."\n\nThe name is "Colima Volcano" which appears to be a little south of the line you wrote about.  However, it appears this is the only one that erupted recently in the area you were in.  Click the links below for verification.

The first site below has a good simple explanation of earthquakes and volcanoes.  The second site focuses on recent earthquakes and volcanoes around the world.\nMy favorite video on Volcanoes is from the Eyewitness video series... great photography  and fast moving.  You might be able to find it in a video rental store or the library.  I'm not sure what you needed to know about this subject, so here is a variety.  Hope one of them helps.

Depends on the composition of the magma.\n\nMagma high in silica tends to be thick & gas bubbles are trapped. The gas builds up & boom! Explosion.\n\nBasaltic lava tends to be "soupy" so that the gas bubbles escape. No explosions here.\n\n:)
