The 1980 eruptions of Mount St. Helens, Washington by 
Encyclopedia of Earthquakes and Volcanoes by
Encyclopedia of Earthquakes and Volcanoes, Fourth Edition provides a single-source reference on recent and historical earthquakes and volcanic eruptions for the student and general reader doing research on this high-interest subject. This comprehensive A-to-Z resource explains the specific terms, concepts, people, and organizations associated with the sciences of catastrophe—seismology and volcanology—and covers the places in the world where these destructive phenomena have occurred, as well as key environmental issues, economic dilemmas, ethical concerns, and current advances in research and technology.
Eruptions of Mount St. Helens : past, present, and future by 
Mount St. Helens: the eruption and recovery of a volcano by 
Born of Fire by
Uses the Mount St. Helens and the Santorini volcanoes and the San Francisco earthquake as dramatic evidence that our planet's subterranean regions are active and continually changing. Explains the plate tectonics theory and accompanies scientists around the world as they study the boundaries between plates of the earth's crust where earthquakes and volcanoes may occur in the future.
Deadliest Volcanoes by
Millions of people around the world live in the shadow of active volcanoes. From Japan's Mount Fuji to the 'Sleeping Giant' submerged beneath Naples to the Yellowstone 'Supervolcano' in the United States, Nova travels with scientists who are attempting to discover how likely these volcanoes are to erupt, when it might happen, and exactly how deadly they could prove to be.
Doomsday Volcanoes by
The eruption of Iceland's Eyjafjallajökull volcano in 2010 turned much of the northern hemisphere into an ash-strewn no-fly zone. Katla, an Icelandic volcano 10 times bigger, has begun to swell and grumble, and Hekla and Laki, could erupt without warning. Iceland is a ticking time bomb: When it blows, the consequences will be global. What can we do to prepare for the coming disaster?
In the shadow of Vesuvius by
Since the days of the Roman empire, the numerous eruptions of Italy's Mount Vesuvius have devastated whole cities and towns, also destroying Pompeii and Herculaneum in A.D. 79. Describes how the volcano affects the lives of some two million people who now live in its shadow.
Kilauea : Hawaii's active volcano by
Witness the fountains of lava in slow motion rising hundreds of feet into the night sky. Then enjoy the serenity of a Hawaiian rainforest. Includes an educational narration.
Living Volcanoes by
Explores the variety of activity, both human and natural, that occurs on the slopes of active volcanoes and follows biologist Jeffrey Marlow as he makes a dangerous descent into the Marum Crater, on Ambrym, Vanuatu, one of the world's most dangerous volcanoes alive today.
Mount St. Helens: Back from the Dead by
"When Mount St. Helens erupted in 1980, every living thing in the blast zone was buried. However, life began to bloom again, and biologist Charlie Crisafulli has been documenting the return of plant and animal life. Also the mountain, like the wildlife, is coming back to life. Nova presents a pioneering look at the interplay between biology and geology that may help scientists predict future volcanic eruptions"--Publisher.
