What is the avarage amount of damage from a volcano?

Question

Like in money ($).

Answer 1

Average? There is no average truthfully.. It all depends on where the volcano is, how big the eruption is, and whether or not the volcano is active yearround or only once in a while.

Some volcanoes are in really remote locations or even underseas. You cant really put a dollar amount on those.

Others have fresh lava flows all day long, like some of them in Hawaii. But for all the damage those do, they bring in tourist dollars, so its a money maker and not a money loser.

Volcanoes can erupt small or large. A small eruption could just damage the grass on a nearby slope of land. A large eruption could destroy a forest, destroy a town or city, and even alter the course of rivers and change the entire landscape and ecology of an area.

So, what do volcanoes do in damange? Anywhere from making millions a year to doing hundreds of billions of dollars in damage in an instant...

Answer 2

There is no average accout of damage from a valcano in money or any way. The loss depends up on the care taken by government and depends up on the valcano and surrounding natural geographic conditions
