The factors that affect the distribution of earthquakes and volcanic activities are plate boundaries, presence of active volcanoes and the place is along a fault line.

  • As we know that there are several factors triggering a volcanic eruption, three predominate the buoyancy of the magma, the pressure from the exsolved gases in the magma, and the injection of a new batch of magma into an already filled magma chamber.

Following are the main factors that determine the impact of an earthquake:

  1. Distance (along the surface and depth)
  2. Severity (measured by the Richter scale)
  3. Population density.
  4. Development (building quality, financial resources, healthcare, infrastructure, etc.)
  5. Communication links.

Following are the causes of earthquakes and volcanic activity:  

  • As we know that the Most earthquakes and volcanoes occur because of the movement of the plates, especially as plates interact at their edges or boundaries.
  • we know that At diverging plate boundaries, earthquakes occur as the plates pull away from each other.
  • And First, both volcanoes and earthquakes form where one plate sinks under the other.
