There is no simple way to measure volcanoes. They are complex and cannot be measured in ways similar to earthquakes or other disasters. One way to measure size would be the volume of lava or ash but there is no quick way to do that.

Volcanoes release more than 130 million tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere every year. This colorless, odorless gas usually does not pose a direct hazard to life because it typically becomes diluted to low concentrations very quickly whether it is released continuously from the ground or during episodic eruptions.

Volcanoes occur when melted magma, which forms due to heat and pressure, rises to the surface. Magma is less dense than surrounding rock, which causes it to rise. It escapes through a vent onto the Earth's surface. ... 2. E3.4B Describe how the sizes of earthquakes and volcanoes are measured or characterized.

Measured from its base on the seafloor, it rises 30,000 feet, approximately 1,000 feet higher than Mount Everest. In contrast to the explosive continental volcanoes, the more fluid and less gaseous eruptions of Kilauea and Mauna Loa produce fiery fountains and rivers of molten lava.
