科学家觉得该火山可能会改变附近的地貌。
We saw that, for example, the blue lagoon that was in the crater before is no longer there, the green lagoon is somewhat dry, and we also detected a volcanic vent.

Cerro Azul, one of five active volcanos on the island, last eruputed in September 1998, causing minor damage to plant life. The volcano is located on the unpopulated southwestern corner of the island. The Galapagos Islands are known for unique plant and animal life, and it's part of the inspiration for Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.
“Cerro Azul”火山是该岛上的五大活火山之一,上一次喷发时间是1998年9月,对植被造成了不太严重的破坏。该火山坐落在该岛西南角的无人区。加拉帕戈斯群岛以独特的动植物物种而闻名,它是查尔斯?达尔文的《进化论》灵感来源的一部分。
