eruptív

eruptív is a Czech adjective derived from the verb eruptovat, meaning to erupt. It is primarily used in a geological context to describe volcanic activity or phenomena associated with volcanoes. When something is described as eruptív, it refers to processes or materials that are expelled from the Earth's interior, such as lava, ash, and gases.

Geological formations that result from such activity are also characterized as eruptív. This can include volcanic rocks, which are igneous rocks formed from cooled lava or magma. The term can also describe the explosive nature of volcanic eruptions themselves. In a broader, though less common, sense, eruptív might be used metaphorically to describe something that bursts forth suddenly or forcefully, mirroring the intensity of a volcanic eruption. However, its primary and most frequent application remains within the field of geology and volcanology.
