Which volcanic event is inhibited when overburden pressure exists?

A)Caldera formation
B)Lava dome growth
C)Magma Differentiation
D)Pyroclastic flow eruption

💡 Explanation

Pyroclastic flow eruptions are suppressed because elevated overburden pressure decreases the volatile exsolution; therefore, explosive eruptions diminish rather than a gentler lava emplacement, which might still occur under high pressures.
