Mount Belinda, Active stratovolcano on Montagu Island, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.
Mount Belinda rises 1,370 meters above sea level, forming the highest peak of the South Sandwich Islands in the Scotia Sea.
Scientists first detected Mount Belinda's volcanic activity in October 2001 through the MODIS Thermal Alert System, marking its first recorded eruption.
The British Royal Air Force conducts regular monitoring flights over Mount Belinda to track volcanic activity and environmental changes.
Satellite imagery and thermal detection systems provide the primary means of studying Mount Belinda due to its remote location in the Southern Ocean.
A 3.5-kilometer lava flow from Mount Belinda's 2005 eruption created a new landform when it reached the ocean, generating substantial steam plumes.
