The largest island in the northern hemisphere that is not located in a volcano or earthquake area is Baffin Island in Canada. Baffin Island is known for its vast glaciers, fjords, and rugged landscapes, but it does not have any active volcanic activity or major earthquake zones.

In earthquake-prone areas, sandy or gravelly soils are typically safer for building structures compared to clay or other soil types. This is because sandy or gravelly soils can absorb and distribute seismic forces more effectively, reducing the risk of structural damage during an earthquake. It is important to conduct a thorough site evaluation and consult with a geotechnical engineer to determine the most suitable soil for building in an earthquake-prone area.
When an earthquake occurs under a volcano, it can potentially trigger an eruption by disrupting the volcano's internal structure and allowing magma to escape to the surface. The shaking can also cause landslides on the volcano's slopes, which can further destabilize the area. Scientists closely monitor seismic activity around volcanoes to assess the risk of eruptions following an earthquake.
The UAE is not considered to be earthquake-prone as it is situated in a stable region with low seismic activity. However, there have been rare instances of minor earthquakes in the country.
Tourism. Many people also have beliefs that some hazards would not happen because e.g. a volcano not erupting for 100 years.
Delhi is prone to Earthquake. Prone areas - The areas which are near to Yamuna bank are very much prone to the earthquake. East delhi is the most earthquake prone area. Some areas are- Shahdara, Mayur Vihar - I, II, III, Laxmi Nagar and nearby areas, Gurgaon, rewari, noida
Yes. We are right on a fault line.
The earthquake prone areas are those on or near fault lines or subduction zones, and those near active volcanoes. Most of the rim of the Pacific Ocean is one such area.
No, Mumbai is not an earth quake prone place. But there is no guarantee, natural calamities can strike anywhere on earth. And I would say Mumbai is a flood prone area.
"Earthquake prone" means an area or region that is particularly susceptible to experiencing earthquakes due to its geological characteristics and history of seismic activity. These areas are more likely to be affected by earthquakes compared to others.
Nothing causes the ring of fire it is just a nick name for the area because volcano's and earthquakes have magma and lava involved.
it depends how strong the earthquake is some can be stronger than a volcano or than a volcano can be really strong
The states which are near to the edge of massive plates are earthquake prone regions
yellow stone is a volcano
An earthquake made a volcano erupt which made hawaii. Tajeem
