Geographic Location 35 o 21’28.8”N, 138 o 43’51.6”E

Nearest City  Tokyo  Distance: Approximately 80 kilometers from the center of Tokyo to the top of Mt. Fuji  Population: 127, 467, 972 people

Eruptions Most Recent:  December 16, 1707 Most Destructive:  1705  Killed 8,000 people hot-spots-active-volcanoes- world/

Other Events I. Mud Slides II. Ash Clouds III. Localized Earthquakes

Tectonic Process and Formation  Hot Spot Mt. Fuji was created when one of the Earth’s tectonic plates descended on the Philippine Sea plate, which is above a subduction zone. This caused a series of eruptions beneath the Earth which eventually hardened and built up a mountainous volcano. cus.org/-H__Byron- Earhart/3528
