Yes, earthquakes occur far more frequently than volcanic eruptions. On average, millions of earthquakes are recorded each year, with many being minor and not felt by people. In contrast, significant volcanic eruptions are relatively rare, with typically only a few dozen occurring annually. The sheer volume of seismic activity makes earthquakes far more common than volcanic events.

Are there volcanoes or earthquake in Chile?
nevado volcano in peru There are many volcanoes in Peru. The west of Peru lies on the Andes, which run along western South America. There are many volcanoes in the Andes, some of them (more than 15) in Peru.
Why do volcanoes kill fewer people than earthquake?
Volcanoes typically give warning signs before erupting, allowing people to evacuate. Earthquakes can strike suddenly and with no warning, leading to more casualties. Additionally, earthquakes can trigger other disasters like tsunamis, which can cause further damage and loss of life.
How would you summarize a paragraph about why earthquakes are more dangerous than volcanoes?
Earthquakes are more dangerous than volcanoes because they can occur suddenly, with little to no warning, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. Their impact can be far-reaching, triggering tsunamis and landslides that compound the devastation. In contrast, volcanic eruptions usually have more predictable warning signs, allowing for better preparation and evacuation measures.

Islands were volcanoes.
Are any natural disasters related?
Tsunamis are related to earthquakes in that earthquakes happen underwater, creating Tsunamis. Volcanoes are somewhat related to earthquakes in that some warning signs of volcanoes are tiny earthquakes, created by the movement of magma and the swelling of the volcano. Other than that, I don't think so.
Why are more people killed during earthquakes than during volcanic eruptions?
Because earthquakes happen underground and volcanoes happen on land.… Not many huge population centers are built near known active volcanoes. Earthquake faults are more widespread. Most quake deaths occur when buildings collapse on the victims in highly populated areas.
