6,300+ Years of Significant Volcanic Eruptions - interactive map
This visualization maps over 600 significant volcanic eruptions from 4360 BC to the present, using the NOAA/NCEI Significant Volcanic Eruptions Database.
A "significant" eruption is one that meets at least one of these criteria: caused fatalities, caused moderate damage (~$1M+), had a Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) of 6 or greater, generated a tsunami, or was associated with a significant earthquake.
