The Bicol Volcanic Arc (also called the Bicol Volcanic Chain) is a 260-kilometer-long volcanic arc located in the central-eastern margin of the Philippine Mobile Belt, specifically the Bicol Region.[1] It is composed of at least 12 volcanic centers, four of which are considered active: Mayon Volcano, Bulusan Volcano, Iriga Volcano, and Isarog Volcano.[2] The Bicol Arc is a product of the westward subduction of the Philippine Sea Plate along the Philippine Trench.[3]
