Which risk increases when rapidly-inflating lava domes experience cooling?

💡 Explanation

Increased dome instability occurs due to thermal stress fracturing, because differential cooling generates stress which overcomes the dome's materials before fracturing leads to a collapse via the mechanism of brittle failure. Therefore, instability increases; rather than reduced lava flow which occurs with higher temperatures.
