Discovering more than 91 new volcanoes in Antarctica, hiding catastrophes for mankind can break out at any time
So far, all 138 volcanoes have been identified, making Antarctica the highest density of volcanoes in the world. Experts warn of a scary tragedy in the future if these volcanoes simultaneously operate?

Researchers from the University of Edinburgh (Scotland) have used radar to explore deep beneath the Antarctic ice sheet. They discovered the largest volcanic system in the world with 91 volcanoes, large and small, three times the amount predicted earlier, located up to 4 km under thick ice.
Geological expert Robert Bingham led the research team, said that this may not be the final number, probably more volcanoes than that hidden under the largest Antarctic Ross.
Previously, scientists had warned of a possible catastrophic disease outbreak due to the release of disease-causing bacteria from the past as the Antarctic ice sheet melted. But after this new discovery by researchers, we have another potential danger deep in the ice.
What happens if these volcanoes are awakened?
Only a volcanic activity will cause a disaster for the entire Antarctic region, Robert Bingham warned.

The eruption or volcanic activity in Antarctica can take place at any time. Especially when global warming at current speed accelerates the melting process of ice and releases pressure on volcanoes, leading to future chain effect eruptions. At that time, the sea level will rise in a short time.
Currently, scientists are continuing to research to find out how much these volcanic activity levels are?
The study is published in the journal Geological Society Special Publications.
