January 2018 Pacific Rim tectonic activity

[studiot]

The purpose of this thread is to discuss the current tectonic activity around the Pacific Rim.

Mods please move to Earth Science if you feel it fits better there.

The Alaska quake is the big news, but there is other activity to consider - volcanic in japan and Indonesia.

 

Here is my contribution to kick off.

If anyone could embed the video I would be grateful
