This can create large craters. With large bodies of water (oceans), the water flashes to steam while the lava cools and hardens (pillow basalts). Also remember, that lava does already contain low amounts of water. When this and other volatiles expand due to pressure release, explosive eruptions occur.
What is Intellectual Property? Intellectual property (IP) refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions; literary and artistic works; designs; and symbols, names and images used in commerce. IP is protected in law by, for example, patents, copyright and trademarks, which enable people to earn recognition or financial benefit from what they invent or create.
Art Law. Intellectual property laws give owners the exclusive right to profit from a work for a particular limited period. For copyrighted material, the exclusive right lasts for 70 years beyond the death of the author. The length of the right can vary for patents, but in most cases it lasts for 20 years. Trademark rights are exclusive for ten years and can be continually renewed for subsequent ten-year periods. Intellectual property laws do not fall in the category of Criminal Law, per se.
