How Golda Meir, Indira Gandhi, and Margaret Thatcher Wrought a New Standard of Leadership. It is surely time to recognize what an immense improvement has been wrought in world standards of governance by the rise of female national leaders.
Shield volcanoes, the third type of volcano, are built almost entirely of fluid lava flows. Flow after flow pours out in all directions from a central summit vent, or group of vents, building a broad, gently sloping cone of flat, domical shape, with a profile much like that of a warrior's shield.
  Viscous lava is very sticky and thick and is more felsic (ie it contains more silica) than non-viscous lava. This type of lava makes for a very explosive volcano, becau â¦ se it's so sticky that it sticks to itself and can't exit the volcano until it explodes violently.   Non-viscous lava is more runny and is more mafic (has more iron, less silica). Volcanoes with non-viscous lava are less explosive because the lava just runs out slowly and no pressure builds.
