The geological record is a suitable tool for the study of eruptive activity in volcanoes. The hydromagmatic explosive eruptions can generate deformation in sediments, which were deposited on the volcanic cone. The hydromagmatic sediments can be liquefied when the energy released by the explosion exceeds seismic magnitudes of 5-5.5 (sand sediment size) or 7.5 (gravel sediment size). Using these thresholds to liquefaction we propose a new Hydromagmatic Explosivity Index (HEI).
