Le volcanisme de Sumatra est une conséquence de la subduction vers le Nord-est de la plaque océanique indo-australienne sous la plaque continentale de la Sonde (une subdivision tectonique de la plaque Eurasienne) avec une progression allant jusqu'à 70 mm/ans.
Terre, enregistrant de très forts séismes de fortes magnitude, comme le grand séisme de magnitude 9.0 (ou peut être même de 9.3) le 26 décembre 2004, qui a malheureusement été illustré.
Les volcans les plus actifs de Sumatra sont le Marapi et le Karinci, suivi par les volcans Talang et Kawa.
