Scientists Reveal Varied Behaviors of Cascade Volcanoes in Subduction Zones
Scientists study the diverse behaviors of Cascade volcanoes, which are part of the Ring of Fire, to better understand their eruption patterns and hazards. The USGS monitors these volcanoes, including well-known ones like Mount St. Helens and less active ones like Mount Adams, using seismic data and hazard assessments to prepare for potential eruptions and protect communities.
