The ring of fire is a ring of volcanoes around the Pacific ocean. These signify tectonic activity, making a high likelihood of earthquakes.
If it is near the Ring of Fire (or Pacific Ring of Fire) it will be vulnerable to many earthquakes.
About 90% of the world's earthquakes and 81% of the world's largest earthquakes occur along the circum-Pacific seismic belt, also known as the Ring ofFire.
Why do the areas along the ring of fire experience many volcanic eruptions and earthquakes?
The Ring of Fire is also known as the Pacific Ring of Fire. The yellow line is the location of the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire is bascically where the Earth's tectonic plates have spread apart and cracked, allowing warm lava to rise and causing many earthquakes and volcanoes. Also, the plates here often shift and that is why there are often tsunamis. Tsunamis are caused underwater by onshore earthquakes that are very powerful.
