    Distribution of Active Volcanoes

    REVIEW: WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO


    MONITOR VOLCANOES?
    The movement of the crust can be caused by
    magma rising to Earth’s surface. Seismographs can
    detect this movement or deformation. This is an
    important tool to predict whether the volcano might
    erupt in the future.
    MAPPING THE VOLCANOES IN THE PHILIPPINES
    1. Based on the Philippine Volcanic Map, each group must list active volcanoes as much as
    they can on their whiteboard.

    2. After 5 minutes, one group will say one active volcano that they have listed. If the
    opponent group has written the same volcano, both groups will cross that volcano out on
    their whiteboard. The process continues until one group doesn’t have any volcanoes left
    to say.
    THE PACIFIC RING OF FIRE
    • A zone within the Pacific
    ocean that covers a
    collection of moving plate
    edges forming a “ring” of
    volcanoes that cause
    earthquakes.

    The Pacific Ring of Fire


    THE PACIFIC RING OF FIRE
    ● A 40 000-kilometer, horseshoe-shaped basin that is
    associated with oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, and plate
    movements.
    ● The Philippines is an archipelago surrounded by
    subducting plates that provides ideal condition for
    volcanic formation resulting in highly active seismicity and
    volcanism in the country.
    VOLCANIC ACTIVITIES
    ● Buoyant molten rock also known as magma rises toward
    the surface and extruded as lava during a volcanic
    eruption.

    ● Tectonic activity in the Philippines is one of the most active


    in the world characterized by a number of volcanic
    activities.
    ACTIVE VOLCANOES
    ● Active volcanoes are those
    that erupted within the last
    10 000 years.

    ● As of 2008, PHIVOLCS listed


    23 active volcanoes.

    ACTIVE VOLCANOES
    Mayon Volcano
    ● It is the most active
    volcano in the country
    located in Albay.

    ● It is famous because of
    its almost perfect cone
    shape. Mt. Mayon
    ACTIVE VOLCANOES
    Taal Volcano
    ● It is a volcanic caldera
    composed of several
    active volcanic
    landforms making it a
    complex type of
    volcano. Taal Volcano
    ACTIVE VOLCANOES
    Kanlaon Volcano
    ● It is another active
    stratovolcano located
    in Negros Oriental.

    ● Its latest activity was in


    June 18, 2016 according
    Mt. Kanlaon
    to PHIVOLCS.
    ACTIVE VOLCANOES
    Bulusan Volcano
    ● It is located in the
    province of Sorsogon
    ● It is a stratovolcano
    formed inside a
    caldera.
    ● Its latest activity was in
    Mt. Bulusan
    March 2, 2017.

    INACTIVE VOLCANOES
    ● Volcanoes have not erupted for at least 10 000 years and
    are not expected to erupt again in the future.

    ● The morphology of these volcanoes was already modified


    by weathering and erosion.
    ● The Philippines is in a zone within the Pacific ocean that
    covers a collection of moving plate edges forming a “ring” of
    volcanoes and earthquakes called the Pacific Ring of Fire.

    ● As of 2008, PHIVOLCS listed 23 active, 26 potentially active


    and 281 inactive volcanoes.
    IDENTIFY WHETHER IT IS AN ACTIVE OR INACTIVE
    VOLCANO. WRITE A FOR ACTIVE AND IA FOR INACTIVE.
    ALSO IDENTIFY THE REGION/ PROVINCE WHERE THE
    VOLCANOES CAN BE FOUND.
