Abstract: The eruption of Unzen Volcano of Japan in 1900 and eruption of Pinatubo volcano of Philippine in 1991 resulted in the active in the west margin of Philippine Sea Plate, and then the global seismic and volcanism come into a new stage. Great earthquakes (M≥8) are mostly in southern hemisphere, includes Sumatra Mw 9.1, 2004, and Chile Mw 8.8, 2010. Volcano active has similar regime, both of 2 eruptions with VEI≥5 occurred in southern hemisphere. Tohoku earthquake in 2011 induced most expensive catastrophes, and effected the global seismic regime. Based on the comparison of patterns of earthquake distribution, the earthquake at Japan Arc may not overthrow the present regime of global earthquake activity.
