Where are the volcanoes in the "Ring Of Fire"?

rocky Paul Jr.

Hi Paul Jr.,

The volcanoes of the ring of fire are all around the Pacific ocean. This includes the Andes of South America, the volcanoes of Central America, the Cascades and Aleutians of North America, the volcanoes of the Kamchatka Peninsula and Kuriles in Eastern Russia, Japan, the Izu and Mariana islands, the Philippines, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Tonga, Kermadek, and New Zealand.

It is quite a collection of volcanoes. I hope this helps to answer your question.

Sincerely,

Scott Rowland, University of Hawaii
