active zones

Active zones are specific areas on a surface or within a system where significant changes or activities occur. In various contexts, such as geology, ecology, or urban planning, these zones indicate spots that are particularly dynamic, where events such as earthquakes, biodiversity interactions, or human development are concentrated. Identifying active zones helps scientists and decision-makers focus their efforts on understanding and managing the impacts of these changes, ensuring better planning, conservation, or disaster preparedness. Essentially, they highlight regions that require closer attention due to their heightened activity or importance.
