Specialist disaster warning in the Northern Hemisphere
The world's leading expert on Arthur Saltykovski volcano, the Institute of Earth Physics named Schmidt predicts: In the next one or two decades, the Yellowstone volcano in the northwestern United States will
Arthur Saltykovski said that now no one can be determined because of the volcanic eruption at a certain time. Volcanic volatility is always a surprise, but it does not rule out that this disaster can be foreseen when studying geological fluctuations in order to estimate 10 years, 20 years, 30 years after that phenomenon will can happen.
If the Yellowstone volcano wakes up it could cause disaster for the entire Northern Hemisphere. Illustration.
He said: The eruption of volcanoes often depends on the ability to identify ' germs ' in areas of molten ghosts, saturating gases such as carbon dioxide, ammonia, fluoride.
Yellowstone volcano is located in the territory of the same name national park in the state of Wyoming, USA. It is a geological formation called ' crater depression ' (caldera), like a funnel which is an ancient crater that covers an area of 55 square kilometers. According to Saltykovski, in the middle of the 20th century, scientists had determined its depth of 8 km, under the crater, there were ' tunnels ' filled with magma, an ancient volcano.
Yellowstone volcano once sprayed about 2 million years ago, followed by two more waves 1.2 million years ago and 600 million years ago. On the last spray it hit the atmosphere about 1 million kilometers of ash and solid blocks. Meanwhile, the largest volcanic catastrophes that history has recorded are only erupting 50 kilometers of ash (Tambora, 1815) and 10 kilometers (Krakatau, 1833). Currently, the potential activities of volcanoes are just a lot of hot springs and geothermal areas in the National Park.
If the Yellowstone volcano erupted, it would become a terrible disaster. In addition to direct volcanic losses such as huge masses of ashes falling into a very wide territory, a large amount of ash will rise to the stratosphere and our planet will endure a ' winter mountain'. fire 'actually, as happened when the much weaker Pinatubo volcano sprayed in 1991 (only 4.8 kilometers of ash) caused a highly cold phenomenon.
Saltykovski describes: " If this volcano is sprayed, half of the US will be covered with ash and lava will flow over large distances around it. The temperature of the Northern Hemisphere will be significantly reduced. Such volcanoes are not much . '
