The Ring of Fire, a region encircling the Pacific Ocean, is prone to various natural hazards including earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis. The intense tectonic activity results from the movement of several tectonic plates, leading to frequent seismic activity. These hazards can cause significant destruction, including loss of life, damage to infrastructure, and long-term environmental impacts. Additionally, volcanic eruptions can lead to ashfall, pyroclastic flows, and lava flows, further exacerbating the risks to nearby communities.

What might be the hazards at living near the ring of fire?
About 90% of the world's earthquakes and 81% of the world's largest earthquakes occur along the circum-Pacific seismic belt, also known as the Ring ofFire.
