Katmai is a divergent volcano, located along the boundary of the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. It is part of the Aleutian volcanic arc, where the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the North American Plate creates volcanic activity. This setting leads to the formation of stratovolcanoes, characteristic of divergent plate boundaries.
