Un fait remarquable des coulées pyroclastiques est que leur émission est habituellement suivie de la formation d’une caldeira d’effondrement(cratère à fond plat de plusieurs kilomètres de large). 3, record 1, French, - caldeira%20d%27effondrement

Les caldeiras d’effondrement sont les plus courantes. L’essentiel du phénomène réside dans l’effondrement de tout ou partie du cône ou des zones voisines par suite du vide causé en-dessous par l’«érosion» de laves ou de cendres. 4, record 1, French, - caldeira%20d%27effondrement

Volcanic craters are formed either by explosion or collapse. ... Collapse craters are formed when the pressure of the molten rock, or magma, inside a volcano can no longer support the weight of the rock or lava above it. This may happen after most of the magma has been drained away during an eruption of the volcano. The material that is no longer supported collapses into the space previously occupied by the magma, thus forming a crater. Well-known examples of collapse craters are found on the summit of Mauna Loa in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. 4, record 3, English, - collapse%20crater

Eruption craters are sometimes difficult to distinguish from collapse craters, but it is usually possible to find a surrounding layer of material that has erupted from the crater. 5, record 3, English, - collapse%20crater
