Not without a better definition of 'large city' or 'near'. Also, geologists don't have a fixed definition of 'active' for a volcano.
There are many notable cites near active volcanoes, such as Naples (Italy) in the shadow of Vesuvius, but many more are to be found around the Pacific rim. The decade volcanoes have been picked out for special attention by scientists. In particular, Indonesia, the Phillipines and Central America have large populations near active volcanoes.
According to a European space agency estimate, there are 500 million people living close to active volcanoes.
Furthermore, a large enough volcanic eruption will effect a continent, or the whole world- for example, the Icelandic ash cloud (2010) large eruptions ( Mount Pinatubo, 1992) or a supervolcano.
What else can I help you with?
Are there many large cities near active volcanoes?
not really
What is Jupiter's moon io cover with?
It is covered in volcanoes. Currently, it is the only known moon in our solar system to have active volcanoes.
Are any volcanoes on mars acetiv?
There is evidence to suggest that there were active volcanoes on Mars in the past, but currently, there are no active volcanoes on the planet. The most famous volcano on Mars is Olympus Mons, which is the largest volcano in the solar system.
Where do a large number of worlds active volcanoes lie?
They lie in the ring of fire
What island that has 7 active volcanoes?
Iceland.
Why are active volcanoes more likely to be found on large continents than small continents?
because large continents are bigger so that means more mountains and some mountains are volcanoes.
How big is the volcano closest to Michigan?
The closest significant volcano to Michigan is the Fissure Vent of the Mid-Continent Rift, located in the Lake Superior region. However, it is not an active volcano but rather a geological feature associated with ancient volcanic activity. The region does not have any large active volcanoes; the nearest active volcanoes are located much farther away, primarily in the western United States, like those in the Cascade Range. Thus, Michigan itself is not near any sizable active volcanic formations.
Where are most active volcanoes?
I'm not sure if this is correct, but near divergent plate boundaries
What European country has the best pumice?
Pumice is volcanic rock. Italy probably has the most pumice, since it contains the only active volcanoes on mainland Europe (as well as some of the most dangerous). Iceland also has a large concentration of active volcanoes.
Where else in the solar system are active volcanoes known exist?
Io, Jupiter's moon has active volcanoes of lava from magma caused due to tidal forces from Jupiter and large moons like Ganymede and Callisto. Triton, a moon of Neptune, and Enceladus, a moon of Saturn both are active with Cryrovolcanoes. These are volcanoes that give off water vapor, methane, ethane, ammonia, etc.
How many of alaskas mountains are volcanoes?
Alaska has 29 volcanoes. Alaska also has 80% of all the active volcanoes in the U.S.AnswerAlaska contains 130 volcanoes in the volcanic fields, 90 of which have been active within the last 10,000 years.
Where are Volcanoes mostly located at?
Many of the world's active volcanoes are located around the edges of the Pacific Ocean: the West Coast of the Americas; the East Coast of Siberia, Japan, the Philippines, and Indonesia; and in island chains from New Guinea to New Zealand--the so-called "Ring of Fire". Recently, active volcanoes were also found in Iceland, the Kenya Rift Valley in Eastern Africa, Italy, and Hawaii. Looking at the locations of these volcanoes through the glasses of plate tectonics, we also notice that most volcanoes occur near the edges of the large "plates" that comprise the solid surface of Earth. Looking even more closely, we also notice that the dangerous explosive volcanoes, such as Mount St. Helens and Mount Pinatubo, that make the evening news are located where plates are crunching together. The quieter, "effusive" volcanoes, like Iceland and Hawaii, are found mostly where plates are coming apart or in the middle of a plate. .............................................................
