where can you find volcanoes?

Question

countries

Answer 1

Ring of Fire. Around the rims of the Pacific Ocean........Alaska Mexico, Japan, Northern Russia.

Answer 2

Volcanoes are generally found where two to three tectonic plates pull apart or are coming together.

The 16 current Decade Volcanoes are:
Avachinsky-Koryaksky, Kamchatka, Russia
Colima, Mexico
Mount Etna, Italy
Galeras, Colombia
Mauna Loa, Hawaiʻi, USA
Merapi, Indonesia
Nyiragongo, Democratic Republic of the Congo
Mount Rainier, Washington, USA
Sakurajima, Japan
Santamaria/Santiaguito, Guatemala
Santorini, Greece
Taal Volcano, Philippines
Teide, Canary Islands, Spain
Ulawun, Papua New Guinea
Mount Unzen, Japan
Vesuvius, Italy

Answer 3

Where Can You Find Volcanoes

Answer 4

Almost every country with an (at least) occasionally warm climate has or could likely have a volcano. Volcanos even exist closer to the poles. Eruption could happen anywhere on the planet, but is more common on Earth around the belt.

-btw, singapore has some reasonably priced volcano tours if you're looking for vacation options

Answer 5

volcanos are found in theese rigions:

Divergent plate boundaries
At the mid-oceanic ridges, two tectonic plates diverge from one another. New oceanic crust is being formed by hot molten rock slowly cooling down and solidifying. In these places, the crust is very thin and eruptions occur frequently because of the pull by the tectonic plates. The main part of the mid-oceanic ridges are at the bottom of the ocean, and most volcanic activity is submarine. Black smokers are a typical example of this kind of volcanic activity. Where the mid-oceanic ridge comes above sea-level, volcanoes like the Hekla on Iceland are formed. Divergent plate boundaries create new seafloor and volcanic islands.


Convergent plate boundaries
In places where one tectonic plate submerges beneath another, the crust melts and becomes magma. This surplus amount of magma generated in one location causes the formation of the volcano. Typical examples for this kind of volcano are the volcanoes in the Pacific Ring of Fire, and also Mount Etna and Mount Vesuvius.


Hotspots
Hotspots are not located on the ridges of tectonic plates, but on top of mantle plumes, where the convection of Earth's mantle creates a column of hot material that rises until it reaches the crust. The temperature of the plume causes the crust to melt and form pipes, which can vent magma. Because the tectonic plates move whereas the mantle plume remains in the same place, each volcano becomes extinct after a while and a new volcano is then being formed as the plate shifts over the hotspot. The Hawaiian Islands are thought to be formed in such a manner, as well as the Snake River Plain, with the Yellowstone Caldera being the current part of the North American plate over the hotspot.


Petitspots
In July 2006, volcanoes were discovered that did not fit in any of the above-mentioned categories, since they are located far from the plate boundary, but are too small to be the result of a mantle plume.[1] A new theory suggests that submergence of tectonic plates causes stress all over the plate, which causes the plate to crack in some places. However, other scientists believe the mantle plume theory to be incorrect, and consider this discovery a confirmation of their ideas

No. Australia is the only continent (Africa, Asia, Europe, Antarctica, Australia, America - north and south) without any active volcanoes... There are extinct ones around - unknown if there are any in Penrith...

Answer 10

There are many countries that have volcanoes - you can find lists of them from this website http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanoes


Good Luck!!!
