Which outcome occurs when a lava dome collapses?

💡 Explanation

A lava dome collapse leads to pyroclastic flow generation because gravitational instability causes the dome material to rapidly descend as a density current down the volcano's slopes; therefore, pyroclastic flows are created, rather than other volcanic landforms forming.
