Two Types of Impact Craters. Impact craters can be categorized in one of two ways: simple or complex. A simple crater has a smooth bowl shape small with a small depth to diameter ratio. This ratio is typically 1:6 which means that if the crater is 1 m deep, it is 6 m wide.
Types of volcano. When magma erupts at the surface it can form different types of volcanoes depending on the viscosity, or stickiness, of the magma, the amount of gas in the magma, and the way in which the magma reached the surface.Different types of volcanoes include stratovolcanoes, shield, fissure vents, spatter cones and calderas.hen magma erupts at the surface it can form different types of volcanoes depending on the viscosity, or stickiness, of the magma, the amount of gas in the magma, and the way in which the magma reached the surface.
