yes yellow stone is in high alert of eruption witch can lead to our death...
Yes.
No. The Natural Disaster Warning Centre confirmed that the tsunami caused by the Japanese earthquake will NOT have any impact on Thailand.
There were a number of earthquakes in Japan in 2012 ranging in magnitudes up to 7.3, but no deaths were reported. World-wide a total of 768 deaths from earthquakes in 2012 were recorded by the USGS Earthquake National Center and none of those from Japan. The last major earthquake from Japan was the magnitude 9.0 quake on March 11, 2011 that killed over 15,000 people in junction with the tsunami that it triggered.
volcanoes can occur in any season
this occurs when the saturated (water and soil mix) ground is shaken by the earthquake and overlying buildings on the area start to sink into the saturated soil. liquefraction thus is when the soil moves quite freely releasing any trapped air = less volume underneath building a good example was the earthquake in Japan, Kyoto (1997?)
no
Yes.

Yes, Japan is an earthquake hot spot
In 1934 there was a huge earthquake in Kathmandu, Nepal. It was estimated that around 20,000 human lives were taken.
Yes i do believe there are. Im not sure though...
According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, there are 108 active volcanoes in Japan. "Active" is defined as any volcano that emits gas and/or has erupted in the last 10,000 years. The JMA is currently monitoring about 30 of them. There are about 36 active volcanoes in Japan. Remember ACTIVE!
Volcanoes can erupt in any climate. Climate does not affect a volcano's ability to erupt.
Because climate has no affect on volcanoes. Issues like plate tectonics are more influential.

Yes. The March 11, 2011 earthquake in Japan was the most powerful known earthquake ever to have hit Japan, and one of the five most powerful earthquakes in the world overall since modern record-keeping began in 1900.
The earthquake in Japan was caused like any other earthquake, by two tectonic plates hitting and moving each other. The tsunami in Japan was caused because the earthquake happened close to the surface of the earth in the lithosphere (crust). The seismic waves (mostly the Secondary waves rather than the Primary Compression Waves) shook the water and later became a giant tidal wave, which was the tsunami in Japan.
