As an update, the connection was just reestablished to the 9 volcanoes in Alaska (which include Novarupta and Katmai). Also, given the ongoing earthquake swarm on Sao Jorge which has been unusually energetic, I would place that volcano in my "major unrest" category. That Azores island has a history of producing moderately explosive fissure eruptions, which is why the island is long and thin.

When I saw that Russia had demanded Alaska and part of California back I suggested that maybe we should give them a few of the Aleutian Islands "back" but only the ones with erupting volcanoes. With an agreement that if one erupts and causes a mega tsunami or something that damages another country they'll pay for the likes of fema like trailers and compensation for damages. I'd like this written up like a modest proposal and it to include charts and graphs of the damage zones if a volcano erupts and make it look scary, then kind of troll Russia for absurdly demanding Alaska and part of California a few hours south of my house "back" from the USA.

Great video and great information too! I had no idea that nine volcanoes were erupting in Alaska, but I guess that's because there are other major things in the news right now. Anyway, one idea that I have for the USGS is that they could put up Earth Cam or Closed Circuit Television(CCTV) video cameras in locations where volcanoes are isolated, but in towns or cities near the volcano. The camera can face the mountain, but not be too close. An Earth Cam video camera goes all around in a 360 degree angle, so it will video tape other areas in the vicinity of the volcano while a CCTV will stay stationary. Right now, the only Earth Cams in a location with a volcano are Seattle, Washington and Costa Rica, but I think that the USGS should look into doing other volcanoes that are active, dormant, or ready to erupt. The Earth Cam company will install the video camera, but they should work with the USGS to make sure that the video camera will work properly, even through an eruption. Maybe the USGS can put a piece of volcanologist suit material on the camera to protect it from ash, lava, and other falling debris. Both of these types of video cameras record video 24/7, but the cameras do go out sometimes for various reasons. I hope that these ideas will work. Good luck and thank you for sharing!

within the last few years there have been several volcanoes erupt that have been under long dormancies i wonder what the combined global temperature effect that all these eruptions would theoretically have in the upper atmosphere? e.g taal, la soufriere, krushivik, la palma, etc
@Daneelro
2 жыл бұрын
This is not new. Most volcanoes have long dormancies, so a few of these erupt every year. The effect of the recent eruptions on climate is almost negligible because even their combined output of ash into the atmosphere pales in comparison to that of eruptions that did have a significant effect. The explosivity of volcano eruptions (that is, the volume of material put into the atmosphere) has a _very_ wide range: say, La Soufrière's 2021 eruption was about a hundredth of Pinatubo's 1991 eruption (the last with a measurable climate cooling effect), which was again only 1/15th of Tambora's 1815 eruption (which caused a year without summer), which again was only about 1/19th of Toba's 73,000 BC super-eruption (which may have caused a thousand-year cold period).
@omegastar19
2 жыл бұрын
Dormant volcanoes becoming active and erupting is a normal thing. In other words, this is always happening. As a result, any influence they have on earth’s climate would also be a continuous effect, so it does not make a lot of sense to talk about the effects of recent eruptions on the climate, as it would be the same effect as eruptions from 100 years ago, 1000 years ago, 10.000 years ago. Its only when an unusually large eruption takes place that we see a significant impact in the climate.

@@Glaudge As far as I know, Hunga Tonga's recent eruption still has to be more precisely rated, which is difficult because it was fuelled by a steam explosion, so it contained less ash. The main explosion was also an extremely short event. But the highest estimate is low-end VEI-5, that is one cubic kilometre, still only a tenth of Pinatubo. There is an estimate for sulphur dioxide emissions alone which is 2% of Pinatubo's. So likely no measurable effect on the climate even from that.
