It took just 10 days for the island to appear as volcanic ash and rocks piled up on the ocean floor. The top part of the new island came above the water, making it about 100 meters wide and 20 meters high.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\"\n>The Japan Meteorological Agency, monitoring the area for volcanic activity since the previous year, confirmed the eruption on October 30 through the University of Tokyo.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\"\n><strong>Why the Island Formed &#8211; <\/strong>The island came about because of explosive eruptions caused by magma meeting water, about one kilometer away from Iwoto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\"\n><strong>Will the Island Last &#8211; <\/strong>Scientists are studying the island&#8217;s makeup to see how durable it is.
