Cambodia does not have any active volcanoes. The country is primarily characterized by flat plains and low mountains, with its geological activity largely influenced by tectonic stability. However, there are some ancient volcanic formations in the region, but they are not currently active. The nearest active volcanic activity can be found in neighboring countries like Vietnam and Indonesia.


How does heat from earth's interior reach the surface?

Heat from Earth's interior reaches the surface through the process of convection, where hot material rises and cooler material sinks. This movement of molten rock and magma creates volcanic activity, geysers, and hot springs. Additionally, heat is also conducted through the Earth's crust and radiated as infrared energy.


Why are most volcanoes located on the edges on continents?

Most volcanoes are located on the edges of continents because that is where tectonic plates meet. At these plate boundaries, one plate is often forced beneath another in a process called subduction, which can lead to the melting of rock and the formation of magma that eventually erupts as a volcano. This is known as subduction zone volcanism.
