Let’s look at what “digital” means. Then what why you are so important to the transiGon.

VOLCANO, geological landform, consisting of a fissure in the earth's crust, above which a cone of volcanic material has accumulated. At the top of the cone is a bowl-shaped vent called a crater. The cone is formed by the deposition of molten or solid matter that flows or is ejected through the vent from the interior of the earth. The study of volcanoes and volcanic phenomena is called volcanology.�� Most volcanoes are composite landforms built up partly of LAVA, (q.v.) flows and partly of fragmental materials. Italy's ETNA, in Sicily, and VESUVIUS (qq.v.), near Naples, are examples of composite cones. In successive eruptions, the solid materials fall around the vent on the slopes of the cone, while lava streams issue from the vent and from fissures on the flanks of the cone. Thus, the cone is built up of layers of fragmental materials and flows of lava, all inclined outward away from the vent. Some enormous, craterlike basins, called calderas, at the top of long-dormant or extinct volcanoes, are eventually occupied by deep lakes, such as Crater Lake in Oregon (see CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK,). �� Some calderas are the result of cataclysmic explosions that destroy the erupting volcano; the volcanic islands of Thera, Greece, and Krakatau, Indonesia, and Crater Lake are in this category. Others form when the subterranean magma chamber, emptied by repeated eruptions, can no longer support the weight of the volcanic pile above it and so collapses. Many volcanoes
