Making functional volcanoes?

[rheaunderstars]

So Blackrack's volumetric clouds adds these volcanic plumes on Laythe, and that got me thinking. Is it possible to make functional volcanoes, using a combination of things like EVE and Kopernicus? Adding a glowing surface for lava is easy enough, but how about adding heating effects? I know it's possible to make lava oceans, like in the Kcalbeloh system. But those work based solely on altitude, similar to Jool's killsphere. Is there a way to have a localized heating effect to make the volcano functional? Is there a way to add an audio effect for it as well?

The only thing I can imagine is using Kopernicus HazardousBody heatmaps to map out volcanoes. I'm not sure about the accuracy of it at a small scale, though. I doubt that there's a way to add an audio effect, though. Blackrack's volumetric clouds do have lightning sounds. Below is a HazardousBody config from the Kopernicus Wiki that could potentially be helpful.
