Sakurajima is a stratovolcano located on Kyushu Island in Japan, primarily caused by the subduction of the Philippine Sea Plate beneath the Eurasian Plate. This tectonic activity generates magma that rises to the surface, resulting in volcanic eruptions. The ongoing geological processes, including the movement of tectonic plates, contribute to its frequent eruptions and the formation of the volcanic landscape. Its activity is closely monitored due to its proximity to the city of Kagoshima.
The most destructive eruption of Sakurajima occurred in 1914 when a large explosive eruption caused significant damage to surrounding areas and resulted in the formation of the current volcanic island.
