Scientists recently reported a rare footage showing sharks living inside Kavachi volcano near the Solomon Islands, challenging assumptions about marine survival in extreme volcanic environments.
About Kavachi Volcano:
It is a shallow submarine volcano located in the South Pacific Ocean, south of the remote Vangunu Island in the Solomon Islands.
It sits on the Pacific Ring of Fire, a tectonically active region.
It is one of the world's few active and visible undersea volcanoes.
It has been erupting on a regular (though thoroughly unpredictable) basis for many years, including several temporary island-building events.
Eruptions typically produce steam plumes, ash, lava, and water discoloration due to volcanic gas release.
The new islands formed are not large enough and coated with solid lava flows to be able to resist wave erosion.
Notable eruptive activity has been recorded repeatedly since it was first documented in 1939.
