The Okinawa and Amami Great Island are the biggest among the Ryukyu Islands. They were generally volcanic in origin and have mountainous terrain. The Amami Islands are limestone islands of coralline origin.  The Okinawa ans Amami Great Island were created by volcanic activity from the sea bed, the pressure from the volcanic activity managed to get massive amounts of magma up to the surface, thus lifting the sea floor and creating an island. At that time, there were numerous volcanic activities nearby, thus the little islands created later merge into one bigger island.

Helga [31]
The correct answer is to accurately measure core temperature.
The tube seen entering the reporter's nose is a thermistor which is used to measure the core temperature of the body with very high levels of accuracy. The tube reaches the esophagus, which is one of the most preferred locations for measuring the core temperature.
The core body temperature is the operating temperature of the human body and it refers to the temperature of the deeper structures of the body instead of the peripheral tissues. 
The esophagus is close to the left ventricle of the heart, it has a deep body location and a quick response to any changes in the body temperature.
