The following are the most active volcanoes in the world today according to German volcanologist Dr. Tom Pfeiffer at Volcano Study, including volcanoes we should watch out for.
In this series, we will delve into the world’s most active volcanoes, exploring their locations, histories, notable eruptions, and their impact on the surrounding regions. We will also discuss the measures in place to monitor and mitigate the risks associated with these volcanoes.
Overall, 41 volcanoes were in continuing eruption status as of 17 October 2024. An eruption marked as "continuing" does not always mean persistent daily activity, but indicates at least intermittent eruptive events without a break of 3 months or more.
There are more than 1,500 potentially active volcanoes or volcanic areas around the world at any given time. They may be the world’s most dynamic landforms, given their ability to grow by accretion or shatter and collapse during an eruption.
This list shows the 20 countries with the most volcanoes that have erupted during the last 12,000 years, though Holocene volcanoes can be found in 78 different countries (plus Antarctica). Totals include various categories of overseas territories, not simply "mainland" locations.
