Core Points - A series of earthquakes have awakened seven volcanoes on the Kamchatka Peninsula, leading to a phenomenon referred to as a "volcanic eruption festival" [1] - The peninsula has shifted 2 meters southeast due to these geological activities [1] - The strongest earthquake occurred on July 30, with a magnitude of 8.7, affecting the region and causing significant volcanic activity [1] Volcanic Activity History - Volcanic activity in Kamchatka and the Kuril Islands is believed to have started 50,000 to 60,000 years ago, with the most intense activity occurring around 1,800 years ago [2] - The volume of volcanic debris from that period reached 18 to 19 cubic kilometers, with eruption columns rising up to 23 kilometers [2] - Historical eruptions have caused extensive ecological damage, including the destruction of at least 500 square kilometers of life and approximately 12,000 square kilometers of vegetation [2] Natural Disaster Risks - Volcanic activity can trigger other natural disasters, such as glacier melting and mudslides, posing risks to local communities [3] - The Kamchatka coastline has faced at least 24 tsunamis in the past 300 years, with significant events recorded in 1737 and 1952 [3] - The region is under constant threat from tsunamis, which have historically resulted in loss of life and property [3] Historical Accounts - Historical records by Stepan Krasheninnikov indicate that volcanic eruptions often precede large-scale eruptions with years of smaller eruptions [4] - Local interpretations of volcanic activity have been shaped by cultural beliefs, with some communities viewing volcanoes as the resting place of the deceased [4] - Modern responses to volcanic eruptions have improved, with better housing structures and public awareness regarding volcanic ash [4][5] Preparedness and Response - Strong volcanic eruptions typically have precursors such as small earthquakes and distinctive rumbling sounds, prompting evacuations from danger zones [5] - Historical records show that catastrophic eruptions can lead to severe wildfires and long-lasting ecological changes, turning vast areas into deserts [5]

当地时间5月17日，位于俄罗斯远东堪察加半岛的希韦卢奇火山被两次记录到火山灰喷发，火山灰分别上 升到海拔8公里和8.5公里处。 首次喷发，火山灰羽流向东北方向延伸了200公里； 二次喷发，火山灰羽 流向东北偏北方向延伸了35公里。 火山活动对飞机飞行构成威胁。 希韦卢奇火山是堪察加半岛北端的活火山之一，海拔约3283米。 责编：刘珺宇 校对： 杨舒欣 百万用户都在看 美国调整对华加征关税！ 利好突袭！外资，重大转变！ 特朗普，突传大消息！ 利好来袭！芯片、特朗普，突传重磅！ 巴基斯坦，重大突发！ 违法和不良信息举报电话：0755-83514034 邮箱：bwb@stcn.com 来源：央视新闻客户端 ...
