Hi all Mount Spurr in Alaska is becoming an increasingly hazardous place to ski and carry out other recreational activities, as volcanic unrest intensifies. ...
First off, yes I do realize that some of you, including Rob, are from New Zealand, but as this is *MY* first experience in New Zealand I thought I would spread...
Hi all There were 48 of them when Maori first settled the area about 800- 1000 years ago, which were converted to Pa's (fortresses)from which protected the...
Wow! Check out the VolcanoCam: http://www.fs.fed.us/gpnf/volcanocams/msh/images/mshvolcanocam.jpg There's a great photo of the plume on the KGW website: ...
Hi all That is not a small plume by any means. Gregg, did any warnings get issued for aviation? I can assume this to mean magma that could not degas in time...
Rob, I am not sure which Gregg you wanted info from...but I can give it to you. Significant Meteorology Warnings (SIGMETS) have been issued by the Aviation...
Hi all I doubt it. The May 18 eruption was massive because it had the interior of the cone (which largely does not exist now)to store magma and hot pressurised...
Dear all, I would like to suggest you all a visit to the site www.volcanoadventures.com to know a little about Dr. Rosaly Lopes, a planetary volcanologist and...
Hi all Anyone wanting to recognise Mount St Helens 25th anniversary will be interested in the day Mount St Helens awoke, which was March 20 1980 (the unrest...
Hi all Just had Professor Bill McGuire lecture my Hazard Management (HAZM 401) group on the Montserrat volcanic crisis. Bill mentioned contact with Chris...
Hi all Its a free world. Many think that the world was created in 6 days and that God rested on the 7th. Others believe natural hazards are a form of...
Hi all For those of you who read this in World Earthquakes, my apologies for the doubling up. Yahoo has changed the group format recently and there are a lot...
Hi all I was wondering when I read this if a clip from a BBC documentary that screened in 2000 called Volcanic Eruption, showed a pyroclastic back surge. I...
Hi all, Satellite imagery and radar imagery show an eruption cloud to over 50000 ft at Anatahan volcano north of Saipan and Guam in the Mariana Islands. This...
Anatahan has been abandoned since first signals of seismic activity/sulfur smell in 1993. However, people did come to and from the island until 2003...but no...
Hi all Mount Talang has started rumbling as authorities evacuated thousands from its vicinity, knowing the number of evacuees is likely to rise. 25000 have...
Here is a question, of which I am fairly sure of the answer, but wanted to run it by others: Since most likely the magma chambers of these various volcanoes (I...
Hi all After big earthquakes, the segment of the Earth's interior near the epicentre is a bit like a coke bottle that has been shaken up. It is primed or least...
Hmm, I don't know. I appreciate your response and any others that come, but I don't think so. Quakes and volcanoes, while interesting geologically, aren't ...
The one thing that volcano's and earthquakes have in common are plate tectonics - look at the ring of fire and the plates though that area. It isn't a...
*Raises hand* Now, see THIS is why *I* plan on getting my master's in Volcanology and (maybe?) Seismology and another friend is gonna get her's in Seismology...
I'm all for it, Nicole! Best of luck in finishing up, and I can't wait to see the papers. I still don't think that a quake (not talking about magmatic movement...
