    1. Pacific Rim Volcanic Belt: It is basically the same as the ** belt, from the west coast of South and North America, Alaska, and the Aleutian Islands, through Kamchatka, the Japanese Islands, the Philippine Islands, and New Zealand. There are more than 300 active volcanoes in this zone, accounting for nearly 80 active volcanoes in the world, including 100 on the west coast of South and Central America and the West Indies.

    There are more than 90 islands in Alaska, the Aleutian Islands, Kamchatka and Japan. There are about 200 in the western and southwestern Pacific Oceans, including 90 in Indonesia, making it the country with the largest number of volcanoes in the world. For example, the volcanoes of Japan, the Philippines and Chile that erupted in 1991, and the volcanoes in the eastern part of China, all belong to this zone.

    2. The Mediterranean-Himalayan volcanic ** belt, including southern Europe, the coastal areas of North Africa, West Asia, Central Asia, the northwest and southwest of China, northern India, the western part of the Indochina Peninsula and the Malay Archipelago.

    3. The volcanic ** zone of the Oceanic Ridge (Middle Ridge), including the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, the Indian Ocean Ridge, and the Mid-Ridge (Mound) of the Eastern Pacific.

    4. The Continental Rift Volcanic Zone, which mainly refers to the East African Rift Belt, which starts from the lower reaches of the Zambezi River in the south, passes through the East African Plateau, the Ethiopian Plateau, and the Red Sea in the north, and reaches the Dead Sea and the Jordan Valley.

    The Pacific Rim Volcanic Belt is the world's largest volcanic belt, accounting for half of the world's volcanic belt, and volcanic activity often occurs, and the energy released accounts for about four-fifths of the world's total energy.

    There are volcanoes in China, mainly concentrated in China's northeast region, Hainan Island and Leizhou Peninsula, Inner Mongolia and Shanxi and Hebei provinces, the northern Tibetan Plateau and Tengchong in Yunnan. China is a country with many volcanoes, and the famous volcanoes include Jingpo Lake Volcano, Wudalianchi Volcano, and Changbai Mountain Tianchi Volcano.

    Volcanoes that erupt in China include Wudalianchi Volcano in Heilongjiang, Jingpo Lake Volcano in Heilongjiang, Tianchi Volcano in Changbai Mountain, Jilin Longgang Volcano, and Tengchong Volcano in Yunnan.

    1. Wudalianchi volcano in Heilongjiang

    It is generally believed that the Wudalianchi volcanic group is composed of 14 volcanoes, and if Lianhua Mountain in the western part of the volcanic area is included, the Wutangerine Ant Dalianchi volcanic group should be composed of 15 volcanoes, with a distribution area of more than 800 km2. The eruption of the old black mountain and the burning mountain in 1719 and 1721 is less than 300 years ago, and it is an active volcano with the most accurate historical record, eruption time and place among the active volcanoes in China.

    2. Jingpo Lake volcano in Heilongjiang Province

    The Holocene volcano in Jingpo Lake in Heilongjiang Province has a total of 13 craters, all of which are compound volcanoes. It is speculated that the latest phase of the Holocene volcano activity in Jingpo Lake may be around 1000 years ago. From the available geological and chronological evidence of the Zen volcano, there is no dispute that the Holocene volcanic eruption activity occurred at Jingpo Lake.

    3. Tianchi Volcano in Changbai Mountain, Jilin

    Tianchi Volcano in Changbai Mountain, Jilin Province is the most well-preserved Cenozoic multi-genetic composite volcano in China, and the main peak is located in North Korea, with an altitude of 2749m. The volcanic activity of Tianchi Volcano has gone through three stages of development: shield building, cone building and Holocene eruption.

    4. Jilin Longgang Volcano

    There are more than 160 low volcanic cones scattered around the Longgang volcanic group, showing the characteristics of high-density and multicentric eruptions. The low-level crater represented by Longwan at the junction of Jingyu County to the west of Jingyu Huinan has become a major landscape of the Longyuan Shougang volcanic group, among which Dalong Bay and Triceratops Bay have been developed into the only and beautiful low-level crater tourist scenic spot in China.

    5. Yunnan Tengchong Volcano

    The Tengchong volcano in Yunnan Province on the southwestern border was recorded by Xu Xiake as an eruption of the Tayingshan volcano in 1609. According to the characteristics of volcanic geology, geomorphology, magmatic evolution and hydrothermal activity, Heikong Mountain, Dayying Mountain and Ma'anshan are generally regarded as Holocene volcanoes.

    There are volcanoes in China.

    Volcanic and lava activities have been widespread in China since the late Cenozoic, mainly in Northeast China.

    Inner Mongolia and the northern part of Shanxi and Hebei provinces, Leizhou Peninsula and Hainan Island, Tengchong, Yunnan.

    Qiangtang (northern Tibet) plateau, Taiwan, Taihang Mountain.

    Donglu and the North China Plain.

    Most of China's volcanic activities belong to the continental margin volcanoes of the Pacific Rim Volcanic Belt, which are mainly controlled by the Huaxia and Neo-Huaxia faults and the north-west-trending faults that intersect them, and are the products of Himalayan orogeny.

    Volcanoes in the Tohoku region:

    Northeast China is the region with the largest number of Cenozoic volcanoes in China, with a total of 34 volcanic groups, more than 640 volcanoes, and a large area of lava cover. It is mainly distributed in Changbai Mountain.

    Land, Great Khing'an Mountains.

    and the Northeast Plain and Songliao Watershed 3 areas, which have the characteristics of wide range of activities, high intensity, many eruption periods and large distribution density. There are China's largest lava dam lakes - Jingpo Lake, Wudalianchi Volcanic Group, Changbai Mountain Volcanic Cone and so on.

    The Inner Mongolia Plateau is also an area with more frequent volcanic activity in the Late Cenozoic in China.

    In the middle of the Inner Mongolia Plateau, there are large lava platforms composed of basalt from the end of the Tertiary to the beginning of the Quaternary, with a total area of about 10,000 square kilometers, second only to the Changbai Mountains in scale.

    The terrace is regularly lined with many Quaternary extinct volcanic cones. According to its distribution, it can be divided into three parts: Bayantuga lava platform, Abaga volcanic group and Dalenor lava platform.

    There are volcanoes in China. China's volcanoes are mainly distributed in Inner Mongolia, Hebei, Shanxi, Leizhou Peninsula, Hainan Island, Yunnan, Qiangtang Plateau, Taiwan, the eastern foothills of Taihang Mountain, Northeast China and the North China Plain, and most of them belong to the continental margin volcanoes of the Pacific Rim Volcanic Belt.

    Are there volcanoes in China

    Volcanic and lava activities in China since the Late Cenozoic are relatively common, mainly controlled by the Huaxia and Neo-Huaxia faults and the north-west-trending faults that intersect them, and are the products of the Himalayan orogeny.

    The degree of volcanic activity in China is relatively low, and the number of mega-volcanic activities and eruptions is small, causing less damage and damage, and most volcanoes are in a state of long-term dormancy, although the possibility of another eruption cannot be ruled out.

    Some. However, most of the volcanoes in Japan are extinct volcanoes that have been confirmed to stop erupting.

    Tengchong in Yunnan, Wudalianchi in Northeast China, and Changbai Mountain in Jilin are dormant volcanoes, and the magmatic activity inside is very weak, and there is no risk of eruption for the time being.

    There are no ones classified as active volcanoes.

Active volcanoes are volcanoes that have often erupted during human history, such as the famous Mount Vesuvius in Italy and some volcanoes in Indonesia; An extinct volcano is a volcano that has not erupted in the period of human history, but an extinct volcano is not necessarily completely dead, and it may erupt someday in the future, and most of the volcanoes in our country are extinct volcanoes.
