The longest continental chain of volcanoes is in Australia!

I remember when we first lived in Melbourne we were standing on the top floor of a car park one day, and as I was waiting for my husband to open the car, I looked around to see the hills in all directions. I realised that I was standing in a Caldera. I went home and checked online, and it is!

And they're all really, really old. Australia is worn so flat, you can walk to the top of our highest mountain with a day pack and sneakers.

I wish I could have seen your beautiful country in person. I’ve owned parrots for 70 years and my dream was to see them in their native habitats. I became disabled 30 years ago and my traveling was over. I’m grateful for the YT videos that allow me to see your country on a personal level. 😊

@@merk9569We do have some nice parrots Crimson and Eastern Rosella and Grass Parrots are common where i live and are gorgeous although it would be nice if Australians would look after the forests better and stop the continued and baffling desecration of our forests etc.

Love learning about our country’s past.

So it's under an interesting piece of geology right now. Tasmania being a remnant of the Antarctic plate. It seems as though it started out more powerful or closer to the surface given the size of the Mt Warning Caldera do we know what it's up to now. Did the ongoing collision with Zealandia push it down. Given it's trajectory, will we some day see it resurface??

Has anyone looked into what we refer to as ‘the seven hills of Yungaburra’?

Your T-shirt says seismology right where women wearing T- shirts have non stop seismolgy!

Really interesting, hearing that the volcanic plume is now believed to be off north-west Tasmania! It'd be amazing if we saw a new volcano forming there, like Surtsey in Iceland in 1973!

The city of Melbourne is on top of a crater volcano that is well, dormant It hasn’t gone extinct yet

Down the east cape of NZ there are 100 volcanoes under the sea from white island to wellington

[@karensayer3089]

What about the Andes and Rockies. They are full of volcanoes.Some still active.
