Miharayama, Igashi-Izu monogenetic volcanic field, Japan

Volcano: Miharayama, Igashi-Izu monogenetic volcano field (see Miharayama, Igashi-Izu monogenetic volcano field at the Smithsonian Institution website in a new tab)
Type: Soil Diffuse Emission
Description: The Higashi-Izu monogenetic volcanic group, which consists of more than 60 volcanoes, overlies the polygenetic volcanoes in the eastern part of the Izu peninsula, Japan, which are distributed over the area of 350 km2. Recent volcanic activity occurred offshore, e.g., at the Izu-Oshima volcano, which erupted in 1986 and a submarine eruption of the small new Teishi knoll off eastern Izu Peninsula in 1989. Actually it is characterized by diffuse degassing.
