Abstract

The Barren Island volcano, belonging to the Andaman and Nicobar chain (Andaman Sea, Indian Ocean), is related to the subduction of the Indian Plate beneath the Burmese Plate. Its importance is relevant as the island represents the only active subaerial volcano in the Indian sub-continent and the northernmost active volcano of the Indonesian Volcanic Arc, one of the most tectonically active regions on Earth.
