Continuous earthquakes, volcanoes, what happens at the

Scientists believe that despite the recent press coverage of the active earthquakes and volcanoes, there is nothing unusual about the Ring Belt operation.

According to the BBC, tens of thousands of people were upset last week because of natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanoes and snow avalanche that occurred in areas along.

Alaska and Indonesia, avalanche and volcanic eruptions in central Japan and a lava volcanic eruption in the Philippines, all of which have happened in the past few days.

The " unsatisfactory " practice of natural disasters caused the United Nations Office on disaster risk reduction on January 23 to post to the Twitter account the "positive" operational status warning of the Rim. fire belt.

This development may cause many people to worry whether something serious is about to happen.

However, according to Professor Chris Elders, a geographic expert at Curtin University in Australia, the recent activities of the Fire Belt are normal. He said: "There is nothing unusual with what we are witnessing now."

"These phenomena happen at the same time in many different places in the region. There is no need to have a connection between them," Professor Chris Elders said.

Also according to Mr. Elders, volcanic and tectonic plate activities still occur in this area in "hundreds and thousands of years" .

Dr. Janine Krippner, a volcanic expert from New Zealand in the United States, agrees with Elders' point of view.

Although some are concerned that volcanoes seem to be returning more often, Janine Krippner said the volcanic eruption levels "have not increased recently".

According to Janine Krippner, the reason for public concern may be another reason: "We now have more satellite devices to monitor volcanic activities, and the Internet also talks more about activities. "

The Ring of Fire or Pacific Ring of Fire is a way to call a large area consisting of a series of volcanoes, earthquakes and tectonic plates surrounding the Pacific region. . The area stretches about 40,000 km from South America's southern tip to New Zealand.

About 90% of the world's total seismic events occur along this area, and scattered in this belt is 75% of the active volcanoes on Earth, 452 volcanoes.
