An effusive eruption is dominated by the outpouring of lava, which flows away from the vent as a coherent liquid. An explosive eruption produces mainly fragments, ash, pumice and ballistic debris, carried by expanding gas. Magma fragmentation is the break-up of a continuous melt containing bubbles into a continuous gas carrying drops and fragments of melt; it turns an effusive flow into an explosive one.
