Lots depends on how you define a volcano, if you include sea mounts (Volcanoes under the ocean) as well as dormant and extinct ones then the number is quite high. If your just looking at active or at least semi active volcanoes e.g erupted last 1000 years then there are about 18(including Sea mounts). In Auckland alone there are 49 volcanoes some of these are dormant (Rangitoto) while others are extinct. All up theres about 114 volcanoes in NZ however some of these are millions of years old (some older than 16 million years old)
there are 78 volcanoes in the north island and Auckland has 46 volcanoes which is over half of the amount
There are many volcanoes in the north island. Maybe too many to count. Around Auckland there are 50 volcanoes.
Then there are Taranaki, Ruapehu, Tongariro, Ngaruahoe, Tarawera, Taupo, Rotorua and so on.
Look at related links below to see a list of NI volcanoes.
There are 42 volcanoes in New Zealand. There are 3 active, Mt Ruapehu, White Island and Mt Ngaruhoe.
There are 48 volcanoes around New Zealand.
Actually there are over 60 active, dormant and extinct volcanoes in New Zealand, and 48 in the Auckland region.
how many volcans are there in nz???????????
there are three active volcanoes in New Zealand.They are Ngarahoe and Ruapehu in the central North Island and White Island off the central east coast.
There are 48 volcanoes around New Zealand.
Actually there are over 60 active, dormant and extinct volcanoes in New Zealand, and 48 in the Auckland region.
Approx. 50. Most are extinct, but the 'Auckland Volcanic Field' is only dormant.
The 'Ring of Fire' is a series of volcanos along the west Pacific rim, including New Zealand, New Guinea, the Philipines, and Japan.
New Zealand, as a subduction zone, has dozens of extinct volcanoes. The status of the few active or dormant ones is monitored on gns.cri.nz. Currently there are four 'frequently active' volcanoes, and a further seven 'reasonably active'. The Taupo Volcanic Zone is among the most destructive and prolific in the world.
New Zealand Climate and WeatherNew Zealand weather and climate is of paramount importance to the people of New Zealand, as many New Zealander's make their living from the land. New Zealand has mild temperatures, moderately high rainfall, and many hours of sunshine throughout most of the country. New Zealand's climate is dominated by two main geographical features: the mountains and the sea.
Ireland is 32,525 square miles. New Zealand is 103,483 square miles. Ireland could fit in the country of New Zealand 3 times.
New Zealand's active volcanoes include Raoul Island (in the Kermadec Islands), the Auckland Volcanic Field, the large caldera volcanoes of Taupo and Okataina, and the active cones of Taranaki/Egmont, Ruapehu, Tongariro-Ngauruhoe and White Island.
Because New Zealand is sitting on two tectonic plates which cause volcanos when the move.
Rangitoto...
New Zealand's active volcanic island is white island. there are also many islands dotted around New Zealand that are no longer active
The 'Ring of Fire' is a series of volcanos along the west Pacific rim, including New Zealand, New Guinea, the Philipines, and Japan.
Most volcanic activity in New Zealand occurs in the North Island, but there is also a volcano offshore in the Kermadec Islands. New Zealand's most active volcano is White Island (Whakaari) which is an island 48 km off the coast of the Bay of Plenty.
The city of Wellington in New Zealand is build near four active fault lines. The city is also the capital of New Zealand.
Kermadecs, Northland, Auckland, Mayor Island, Okataina, Rotorua, Taupo, Tongariro, Ngauruhoe, Ruapehu, and Taranaki/Egmont are volcanos in New Zealand.
New Zealand, as a subduction zone, has dozens of extinct volcanoes. The status of the few active or dormant ones is monitored on gns.cri.nz. Currently there are four 'frequently active' volcanoes, and a further seven 'reasonably active'. The Taupo Volcanic Zone is among the most destructive and prolific in the world.
There are about 3.9 active million mobile phones in New Zealand for New Zealand's 4.2 million population. Many teens own two phones because calling and texting rates to the same network are much cheaper than calling between networks.
Assuming your talking about New Zealand....nobody. New Zealand was not active during World War 1.
White Island is the only active volcanic island in New Zealand, however there are many dormant or extinct cones along the coastline. Some of the more well known volcanic islands include Mayor Island in the Bay of Plenty, and Rangitoto Island, in the Auckland harbour. Both volcanos are classed as dormant, however, as Rangitoto is in a volcanic field, it is unlikely that it would erupt again, instead a new vent would open nearby.
The North Island.
