The principles behind volcanic eruptions and earthquakes caused by movements within Earth's interior

Volcanoes and Earthquakes — Beneath the solid ground we stand on, incredible things are happening at this very moment.

Volcanoes and Earthquakes — The crust is divided into several plates resembling giant puzzle pieces, and these plates drift ever so slowly along with the movement of the mantle.

Volcanoes and Earthquakes — When the massive energy accumulated from colliding plates is released all at once, an earthquake shakes the ground, and when magma bursts through the cracks, a volcano erupts.

Volcanoes and Earthquakes — To capture these dynamic signs, scientists constantly record and analyze Earth's pulse using precise seismographs and monitoring equipment.
