Do You live near a volcano that could blow? Interactive map reveals the US areas at risk as Kilauea continues to erupt
你住在會爆發的火山附近嗎？地圖揭示在基拉韋亞火山持續噴發時，美國其他一些地區也處於危險之中
As Hawaii residents deal with the devastating effects of the eruption of the Kilauea volcano, a US Geological Service map has revealed the other US hotspots where residents are at risk of volcanic activity.
隨著基拉韋厄火山噴發對夏威夷居民帶來的毀滅性影響，美國地質服務局地圖揭示了美國其他正面臨火山活動危險的地區。
The United States Geological Survey counts 169 potentially active volcanoes in the country, with about 50 of them in six states are rated high priority or highest priority for monitoring.
美國地質調查局統計了該國169個潛在的活火山，其中六個州中約有50個被列為監測的高優先級或最高優先級。
Alaska tops the at risk areas, with at least 50 volcanoes that have been active since 1760, attracting substantial attention from volcano watchers and researchers.
阿拉斯加位居危險地區首位，自1760年以來，至少有50座活躍的火山，吸引了火山觀察者和研究人員的極大關注。
Lava is blurred as it erupts from a Kilauea volcano fissure, above treetops, on Hawaii's Big Island on May 17, 2018 in Kapoho, Hawaii.
2018年5月17日，夏威夷卡波霍的比格艾蘭島上，從基拉韋厄火山裂縫爆發出的熔岩模糊不清，噴到了樹梢之上。
The at risk Alaskan areas are concentrated along the arc of the Aleutian Islands, which is part of the 'Ring of Fire' around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes and eruptions are most common.
危險中的阿拉斯加地區集中在阿留申群島的弧線上，這是太半洋周圍的“火環”的一部分，在這裡地震和火山爆發極常見。
Most observed volcanic activity takes place along the Pacific Ring of Fire, a region around the Pacific Ocean where several tectonic plates meet, causing earthquakes and a chain of what geologists call subduction zone volcanoes.
大多數觀測到的火山活動發生在太平洋的火環上，即太平洋周圍的一個地區，那裡有幾塊構造板塊相連，引發地震和一連串俯衝帶火山。
Scientists at the Alaska Volcano Observatory have a yellow alert in effect for Mount Cleveland, where they have been detecting seismic and thermal activity and occasional ash clouds.
阿拉斯加火山天文臺的科學家們對克利夫蘭山進行了黃色預警，他們已經在那裡探測到了地震和熱活動以及偶爾的火山灰雲。
Around the globe today, about 800m people live within 100km, and 29m within 10km of active volcanoes.
現如今，全球大約有8億人居住在活火山100公里內，2900萬人在10公里範圍內。
In Hawaii, scientist's predictions from eight days ago of powerful steam-driven explosions at Hawaii's Kilauea volcano have come true, as they say eruptions are likely to continue.
在夏威夷，科學家8天前在夏威夷基拉韋厄火山爆發的蒸汽驅動爆炸的預言成真了，他們當時說火山噴發很可能會繼續。
Hawaii's Kilauea volcano erupted Thursday and sent ash spewing 30,000 feet into the sky before raining down on a nearby town, with residents being warned to shelter in place as the dusty plume engulfs the island.
星期四，夏威夷基拉韋厄火山爆發，灰燼噴發30000英尺高，落在附近一座城鎮上空，居民們被警告要尋找安身之地，因為這座島嶼已被飛揚的塵土吞沒。
Experts say the explosive ballistic displays could go on for weeks - and they don't know when it's going to stop.
專家們說，這次爆發可能會持續數週，不知道什麼時候會停止。

To use the map, use your mouse to see your area.

The Volcanoes and Current Activity Alerts map shows the location and activity levels of all volcanoes in the United States.
火山和當前活動警報圖顯示了美國所有火山的位置和活動水平。
The map allows for filtering based on both location and current volcano status.
地圖允許基於位置和當前火山狀態的過濾。
Each volcano is depicted by a small colored triangle with different colors indicating various volcano alert levels:
每個火山由一個小的三角形表示，不同的顏色指代各種火山警報水平：
Green = normal
綠色=一般
Yellow = advisory
黃色=較重
Orange = watch
橙色=嚴重
Red = warning
紅色=特別嚴重
Users can click on individual volcanoes to see that volcano's page on the USGS website.
用戶可以點擊某個火山，看看該火山美國地質勘探局網站上的頁面。
The powerful, steam-driven explosion occurred at 4.17am and started spewing large amounts of volcanic ash and smoke from the crater on Hawaii's Big Island that shot higher than the peak of Mount Everest.
清晨4點17分，這一強大的，蒸汽驅動下的爆發發生了，從夏威夷比格艾蘭火山口開始噴出大量火山灰和煙霧，噴射至珠峰頂以上。
Geologists have warned that the volcano could become even more violent, with increasing ash production and the potential that future blasts could hurl boulders from the summit.
地質學家警告說，火山爆發可能會變得更加猛烈，伴隨著火山灰的增加，未來爆發時，可能會從頂峰上落下滾滾巨石。
The wind could carry the ash plume as far as Hilo, the Big Island's largest city and major tourism center, the County of Hawaii Civil Defense warned in an alert.
夏威夷民防局警告說，風可能把火山灰帶到遠至希洛市，該市是比格艾蘭最大的城市和主要旅遊中心。
'Protect yourself from ash fallout,' the warning alert said.
警報中說：“要保護自己免受火山灰損傷。”
Most observed volcanic activity takes place along the Pacific Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire is a horse-shoe shaped seismic region stretching along the Pacific Ocean coastlines, where the Pacific Plate is grinding against other plates that form the Earth's crust.
大多數觀測到的火山活動發生在太平洋的火環上。火環是沿太平洋海岸線延伸的馬蹄形地震區，太平洋板塊正在此處與形成地球地殼的其他板塊摩擦。
'The resulting ash plume will cover the surrounding area.
火山灰將覆蓋周圍地區。
'You should shelter in place if you are in the path of the ash plume. Driving conditions may be dangerous so if you are driving pull off the road and wait until visibility improves.'
如果你在火山灰降落的路上，你應該找個安全的地方躲避。如果這時你在開車，駕駛情況是很危險的，你應該離開道路，等能見度提高再行駛。
USGS geologists and staff were evacuated from the summit shortly before the blast and a webcam showed a gray plume of ash and chunks of magma known as pyroclasts that showered the volcano's slopes.
美國地質勘探局的地質學家和工作人員在爆炸前不久從山頂撤離，攝像頭拍到了灰燼和岩漿塊，也稱為火山碎屑，沿著火山的斜坡噴發。
An aviation red alert was also issued due to risks that ash could be carried into aircraft routes and damage jet engines.
灰燼可能被帶到飛機航路中並損壞噴氣發動機，因此還發布了一個航空紅色警報。
The eruption could not only enshroud large areas of the Big Island in volcanic ash and smog but other Hawaiian Islands and potentially distant areas if the plume reaches up into the stratosphere and ash is carried by winds.
火山噴發不僅能把比格艾蘭島的大部分區域籠罩在火山灰和煙霧中，而且如果火山灰羽流到達平流層且灰燼被風吹起，那麼其他夏威夷群島和潛在的遙遠地區都可能被籠罩其中。
National Guard troops donned gas masks to protect themselves from toxic sulfur dioxide gas at the intersection of highways 130 and 132, the main exit routes from the village of Pahoa, 25 miles east of the volcano, where many of the ground fissures have erupted.
國民警衛隊在帕赫阿村的主要出口處130和132號公路上設置了防毒面具，以保護他們自己免受有毒二氧化硫氣體的侵害，公路位於火山東邊25英里處，那裡有許多地裂縫在噴發。
The current eruptions on land range from gentle lava effusions to moderate-sized explosions and are tiny compared to the largest in Earth's history.
目前在陸地上的噴發從溫和的熔岩流出到中等規模的爆炸，和地球歷史上最大的爆發相比，這還算是小的。
Even the 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora, also in Indonesia, arguably the largest eruption in recent recorded history, is dwarfed by super-eruptions in the geological past such as that of Toba volcano on Sumatra some 74,000 years ago.
即使在1815年，同樣也是印度尼西亞的坦博拉火山爆發，可以說是最近記錄的歷史上最大的火山噴發，但和約74000年前，蘇門答臘島託巴火山上的火山爆發相比，未免相形見絀。
Globally, 'Volcanic threat', a measure that combines the level of hazard and the number of people exposed to it, is by far the highest in Indonesia, followed by the Philippines, Japan, Mexico and Ethiopia.
在全球範圍內，“火山威脅”（將危險程度和暴露人數相結合的衡量指標），在印度尼西亞是最高的，其次是菲律賓、日本、墨西哥和埃塞俄比亞。
These five countries combine to make up more than 90% of the total global volcanic threat.
這五個國家合計佔全球火山威脅的90%以上。
Toba erupted approximately 70 times more magma than Tambora, helped plunge the earth into another ice age and may have even created a genetic bottleneck in human evolution.
託巴火山爆發的岩漿大約是坦博拉火山的70倍，促使地球進入另一個冰河時代，甚至可能在人類進化史中製造了一個瓶頸效應。
In fact, Toba was the largest eruption in the past 25m years, so there is little chance of a similar catastrophe any time soon.
事實上，託巴火山爆發是2500年以來最大的一次火山爆發，所以短期內不會有類似的災難發生。
Nevertheless, it is the frequent, small- to moderate-sized eruptions that pose a constant volcanic threat.
然而，頻繁的、小到中等大小的火山噴發會持續地威脅著人類。
