Volcanism and Subduction : the Kamchatka Region.

Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series. The Kamchatka Peninsula and contiguous North Pacific Rim is among the most active regions in the world. Kamchatka itself contains 29 active volcanoes, 4 now in a state of semi-continuous eruption, and I has expe...
