What are the two restricted sea areas in Montserrat?
The two restricted sea areas in Montserrat are the Exclusion Zone and the Volcanic Hazard Zone. The Exclusion Zone surrounds the Soufrière Hills volcano, where access is heavily restricted due to the risk of volcanic activity. The Volcanic Hazard Zone extends beyond the Exclusion Zone and includes areas that may be affected by ashfall, pyroclastic flows, and other volcanic hazards. These restrictions are in place to ensure public safety in light of the ongoing volcanic activity.
What does not happen near a subduction zone?
Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions do not usually happen away from a subduction zone. Subduction zones are known for their intense seismic activity and volcanic activity due to the movement of tectonic plates.
What are the different types of zones?
a zone where volcanic activity or earthquake etc. is happening
Is japan on a hot spot?
No. The volcanic activity in Japan is associated with a subduction zone.
What is the zone of seismic and volcanic activity that encircles the Pacific Ocean?
It is called the "Pacific Ring of Fire".
Why are volcanoes not found in Singapore?
Although Singapore is not very far from a subduction zone, it is beyond the zone in which the subduction produces volcanic activity. Additionally, Singapore is geographically quite small, so even if it were in a belt of volcanic activity, there probably would not be a volcano in Singapore.
Why are rift zone common places for igneous rock form?
The thin crust of a rift zone causes melting in the upper mantle, resulting in volcanic activity.
Why does Taiwan have so many earthquakes?
because it is located on an active zone and it is on top of the pacfic ring of fire
What do Mid-Atlantic Ridge Ring of Fire and Eurasian-Melanesian Zone have in common?
they are major zones of volcanic and earthquake activity.
Why are rift zones common places for igneous rocks to form?
The thin crust of a rift zone causes melting in the upper mantle, resulting in volcanic activity.
Has St. Louis experienced any volcanism or seismic activity?
St. Louis has likely felt earthquakes from the New Madrid seismic zone, but there is no volcanic activity for hundreds of miles.
What are the other volcanic zone identified by PHIVOLCS?
There are several volcanic zones located in the Philippines. The activity of these zones are monitored by PHILVOLCS. Some zones which have been known for activity include the Mayon volcano located in Luzon and Taal which is also located within Luzon.
