One of the most active volcanoes in north america (Most active Volcanoes)

One of the most active volcanoes in North America:


Research at the British Geological Survey (BGS) in Edinburgh is warning that we still don't know enough when it comes to predicting and preparing for major volcanic eruptions.

 Dr Julia Crummy has based her conclusion on years spent researching the Volcán de Colima in Mexico.

 Standing over 12,470ft (3,800m) high, it is one of the most active volcanoes in North America.

 Colima has erupted every other year, on average, since 1900. Its last phase of eruptions lasted from 2013 to 2017.
In 2015 the fall of ash was so severe that hundreds of people were evacuated from their homes and the local airport was closed temporarily. There were more evacuations the following year.

"There was a civil war going on at the time and they actually thought it was cavalry," she says. "It produced a really huge ash cloud that rose up to about 23km (14 miles).

 "Pyroclastic flows travelled 15km (9 miles) from the volcano and ash fall was reported in Guadalajara. That's about 160km (99 miles) away."

 Today, more than 500,000 people live within 30km (17 miles) of Colima. Extensive plans are in place to safeguard them in the event of another big explosion.
