Displays recent earthquakes and active volcanoes on a map or list, volcano information/news.
Volcanoes & Earthquakes shows the latest earthquakes around the world or just earthquakes near you, as well as “I felt it” earthquake reports for earthquakes, in near real time. It also shows active volcanoes on a map and in list form, as well as news about volcanoes around the world.
You can filter and view the data in different ways, such as by earthquake magnitude or age, distance from your location, volcano status, and more.
