Two things need to be consider here;
- Location that is how close is the magma chamber and the surface
- Disturbances beneath the earth(stress of the convection current)which can determine the pressure exerted below the earth,do influence or control the violence of volcanoes

The violence of an eruption is primarily controlled by the composition of the magma, the amount of gas dissolved in the magma, and the presence of water or steam. Magma with high viscosity and high gas content is more likely to result in explosive eruptions. The depth of the magma chamber and the presence of any pre-existing fractures in the rock can also influence the violence of an eruption.
