Geography and Biodiversity of Barren Island
Just 3 kilometers wide, with a two-kilometer-
wide caldera, Barren Island is the summit of a
volcano that rises about 2,250 meters from the
seafloor, with 354 meters above the waterline. It
is the emergent summit of a volcano that rises
from a depth. The eruptions had reduced the
number of bird species and their population. Of
the 16 previously reported species, only six
species are observed, of which the Pied Imperial
Pigeon is the most abundant.  Not Dangerous at
all!  It has been in news recently that the
Volcano erupted in small episodes of about five
to ten minutes, on January 23, 2017. It resulted
in the ash clouds and red lava fountains were
ejecting from the crater and the hot lava flowed
streaming down its slopes. But dont worry this
is nothing new to this unique place. It has
erupted at least five times over the next 100
years.
