Ring of Fire: The most dangerous volcanoes in the Ring of Fire REVEALED by volcanologist


Mount Kadovar in Papua New Guinea

The next volcano to make the list is a remote volcanic island northeast of New Guinea.

Unlike the other volcanoes on the list, Kadovar has had a peaceful slumber of hundreds of years.

But in January 2018 belched clouds of gas and steam, forcing the residents of Kadovar Island to evacuate.

Dr Hadley said in 2018: “The impact from the eruption is not just confined to those on Kadovar and nearby islands, with satellite imagery tracking an ash plume from Kadovar travelling over tens of kilometres.

“Identified volcanic risks at Kadovar include further potential explosive activity, landslides, and resulting possible tsunamis.”
