volcanic/seismic activity?

Eruptions! Earthquakes!  The cool exciting stuff!  What did you want to know about it?

You mean earthquakes?  Spelling it right is probably a good starting point.

Simple answer: distance and monitoring.\n\nPlacing sensitive probes on the volcano to monitor any movements, shifts, temperature change, growth, seismic activity, etc., will give some indications of what a volcano is up to. If vulcanologist's studying the volcano's activities consider an eruption is about to happen, then an early warning can be issued for an evacuation.\n\nVolcanic eruption cannot be stopped. Eruption prediction is an inexact science at best. Safety is in distance. Tourist beware.

heh... are you referring to ecological endangered hotspots or hot spots under plates that cause volcanic activity?\n\nThere are... way to many ecological hot spots particularly in tropical areas in South America, Africa and South Asia.\n\nAs for hot spots associated with plate tectonics, there are many I'm sure but the Hawaiian Island chain is probably the biggest and longest.  Yellowstone wouldn't be a hot spot really, it's pretty close to a plate boundary and it's activity I would think is left over from this.  Hot spots are unusual for continental plates.  It seems like many island chains could have been formed by similar hot spots under ocean plates though.

Depends how you define seismic activity.  \n\nYes, the intensity as measured by seismometers would be strongest at the epicenter.  This does not mean the damage would be greatest directly over the epicenter, on in the nearest town.

according to my source it is a volcanic remnant being... um, harvested (for lack of a better word) for lava rock.  Just a note, most active or recently (in geological history, not ours) active volcanos can be told by thier names, generally being called Mount ______, instead of ________ Mountain.  try it :)

Yes, this links have info about volcanic activity in the Arabian plate.\n\nhttp://volcano.und.edu/vwdocs/volc_images/europe_west_asia/saudi_arabia/harrat.html\n\nhttp://volcano.und.edu/vwdocs/volc_images/europe_west_asia/saudi_arabia/ash_shamah.html\n\nhttp://volcano.und.edu/vwdocs/volc_images/europe_west_asia/bazman.html

We do not know. Future volcanic eruptions could occur within or near Yellowstone National Park for the simple reason that the area has a long volcanic history and because there is hot and molten rock, or magma, beneath the caldera now. Yellowstone is monitored for signs of volcanic activity by YVO scientists who detect earthquakes using seismographs and ground motion using GPS (Global Positioning System). YVO has not detected signs of activity that suggest an eruption is imminent.\n\nThe crust of North America continuously moves southwest over the Yellowstone hotspot as the Earth's crust stretches above it, promoting the ascent of heat and molten rock. These processes produce basaltic magmas within the Earth's mantle, which rise into the overlying crust and continue to heat the rocks beneath Yellowstone, maintaining and possibly adding to the rhyolite magma in the crust above.\n\nYellowstone's 2-million-year history of volcanism, the copious amount of heat that still flows from the ground, the frequent earthquakes, and the repeated uplift and subsidence of the caldera floor also testify to the continuity of magmatic processes beneath Yellowstone and point to the possibility of future volcanism and earthquake activity.

Yes it was very active at one time and will be again.\n\nhttp://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/fs073-97/

There are earthquakes all the time.  Do you mean a destructive one?  That would be the quake that interrupted a game during the 1989 World Series when the Giants were playing at home.  Do you mean one some people just barely felt or noticed?  Earlier this month.  Do you mean one detected only by seismograph?  Probably within the last fifteen minutes.\nThe San Andreas fault runs right through San Francisco Bay, and there are plenty of other active faults in the area.

Earthquakes, epic centers, rumbles they all have the same meanings they come from two plat tectonics forcing one under the other. Either creating mountains are large crevice in the ground. In some cases earthquakes can trigger volcanic activate, but not always eruptions.

Hmmmmm ..... some volcano probably??   You probably know that - can't think of one that fits.
