"VOLCANIC ERUPTION"
The first recorded accounts of Mayon's eruption were made by the Franciscan priests during the 18th century.
Its most destructive explosion occurred in February 1814, when clouds of volcanic gas and waves of mud and lava
destroyed the town of Cagsawa, about 16 kilometers away. More than 1, 200 lives were lost. What remained was
the church's bell tower and a few stone roofs, visible to this day and nearly as postcard-famous as volcano itself.

Answer:
Volcanic eruptions can result in complete destruction of ecosystems close to the volcano. Volcanic ash falls vary in their effects from total burial of ecosystems to negligible, depending on their depth. ... Generally, the more viscous the lava, the less readily gases can escape from it and the more violent the eruptions.
