Shiveluch Volcano Update; Dome Inactive for 1,200 Years Erupts, New Area at Risk
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 чер 2024
- In Russia, a region known as Karan which had been inactive for 1,200 years suddenly erupted on April 26th. In the time since, it has rapidly emplaced a more than 2,000 foot wide lava dome which is still growing at a high speed. While this andesitic dome's current eruptive activity is fairly weak, historical evidence suggests that a highly explosive eruption is likely to eventually occur.

The activation of a section of the Karan dome occurred around April 30th of last year. It thus took nearly a year for the associated magma to reach the surface and erupt.
1 year worth of slow pressure build up....scary
Who knew Karen would just blow up like that? Who could've possibly foreseen this? Certainly not I!
Oh man this kinda scary
Hey question. Are volcanoes more active recently? It seems that way.. but I’m not sure if I’m just not hearing about them.
@@Lucky9_9 no. There are dozens of active volcanoes a day. There is no indication of volcanic activity increasing. However there is more people with phones and internet so more people are posting more about different things including volcanoes
Karan would like to speak with Earth's manager.
😂
😆😂🤣
👏👏👏
🤣🤣🤣
I absolutely knew this joke was going to be made :D
An erupting volcano named Karan...so many jokes, so little time....
Snort
it now wants to speak to your manager!
Karan might blow...😮
Personally I didn't understand the puns lol
You beat me ❤
that timelapse of mount st helens was so cool
At least this Karan is giving us warning that she's about to go ham.
With all the unrest around the world, it must be pretty exciting times to be a vulcanologist.
Your updates are now going world wide,accuracy is your usual high standards. 😊Greg.
Thanks for all of your hard work man!
You make that exact same comment on every one of Geohub's video!
@@michaeldeierhoi4096 Gotta play the game alphabet wants
@@xwiick You are very consistent, I'll say that!!
Thanks as always! It is always interesting and fascinating, if sometimes slightly concerning (When a volcano/volcanic feature that was inactive for hundreds or thousands of years starts erupting near a village or town) when a long-quiet volcanic feature starts to erupt again.
I just wanna say ur a really good artist and you’ve only gotten better over time. You do perspective really well. It’s been cool seeing your progress in diagrams over the past years I’ve been subscribed, before you even got really popular.
Goddamn those explosive Karens.
They're everywhere.
The Karan volcano demanded to speak with Earth's manager.
lol !
🤣
@@mkay1957 Sounds like Karan would really like to speak to the manager - urgently!
TRUNALIMUNUMAPRZURE!
Your videos are always straight forward and very informative. Keep up the great work!
The most dangerous volcano of all; one that demands to see the manager.
Great video as usual
"Karan awakens, Area at risk, Inactive for 1,200 years"
Dear God what eldritch beast hath been awakened? I fear for every manager on the face of the world.
Thankfully it sounds like its already blown off most of its steam though
The beast cracks the Earth and steps out of its cavity. Words are heard:
"Maaa" ... "naaa" " ... "ger!"
It promptly scurries into the dark, whilst hissing and spitting fire quite literally.
Good morning! Had to laugh at the name! 😂 Wow! Great video! Thanks for sharing! 😊
thanks for your work
Endless gratitude to you my erupting brother
YEAH BABY, Karan has awoke
Karan is asking to speak to your manager... NOW
Is it possible for rhyolite lava to flow far from their vent???
I've heard that the Gawler Range Volcanics province in Australia produce a flood rhyolite eruption a long time ago (similar to floor basalt but it was rhyolite) which is strange because rhyolite is the lava with the highest silica content and didn't travel very far from the source.
Yes, if the supplying rhyolite composition magma is large enough. Yellowstone has a few examples of long traveling rhyolite flows.
I totally read the words on the thumbnail as "Karen Awakens" and thought "Great, now a literal volcano wants to speak with you manager, and will set everything on fire otherwise!"
Thankyou ❤️
So mother nature has become a Karan. Oh we are really F'd now.
Karan karen
Take a drink each time pyrolastic flow is mentioned
Maybe to help mitigate all the “Karen” jokes we can pronounce “Karan” as “Kuh-ron”
L take.
OK then - Kuh-ron would like to speak to the Earth's "man-uh-zhe".
0:00 I just came out of Ukrainian report videos and hearing the first words from the intro was quite fitting.
An area on the western flank know as… Karen?!?
I would like to speak to the volcano’s manager
You beat me to this joke! :D
It's fascinating how different this volcanoes behavior is to Ruang's. Do you expect it to form the cap and have a violent eruption, or will the cap just keep expanding?
Karen is about to let yall know her displeasure!
She wants to speak to your geology manager 😮
😂
It's nice to know Kip is doing well. Say hi to Napoleon.
Even the mountains in Russia are unhappy.
@0:56 if you slow down the video to .25% and look in the lower right corner of the screen, you will see an error in the datestamp of the timelapse.

The change happens during the word "and". I know it's a USGS video. I just noticed it.
Looks like Karan erupts very infrequently and has been CALM for a long time. Go for it Karan! 😁
Is it possible for rhyolite lava to travel very far from their source vent???
I've heard that the Gawler Range Volcanics province in Australia produce a flood Rhyolite eruption ( similar to floor Basalt but it was Rhyolite that erupted) which is strange because rhyolite is the lava with the highest silica content and didn't travel very far from their vent.
IIRC Geologyhub has a video about a volcano in Alaska which produced an andesitic shield. There are also some very silicic volcanoes in East Africa (along the rift) which have produced long lava flows and low profiles (I can't remember the names unfortunately), a couple huge lava domes in the high Andes which have had some decently long flowing highly viscous lavas, and Mayor Island in New Zealand which forms a shield. So yes, its possible, but such flows will tend to be extremely thick (more of a giant lava dome than a proper flow really) and are quite rare.
It very much is possible for ryolitic lava to flow freely and with low viscosity. It is a misconception to assume silcaceous lava is thick and explosive vulcanism always occurs when it erupts. We have large flood ryolitic deposits in parts of our Central North island supervolcano field, with pure white ryolitic obsidian glass, of very fine texture.
Naturally fluxes like sodium carbonate or albite, or Aluminium and halogen minerals, can lower the melting point and increase the fluidity.
Basaltic, felsic magma can hold twice as much solvated water under high pressure than ryolitic systems, and this is what drives the most explosive vulcanism.
The belief that ryolite is thick and causes explosive vulcanism is a misconception.
IF Ryolitic magma is thick and high viscosity, it is because it has cooled and assimilated shallow crustal material into a shallow magma chamber an a "crystal slush" is the nature of the magma tic body. And that is what causes most Ryolitic eruptions to be explosive, provided enough solvated volatiles are present to fuel the blast. If it is deep sourced and hot then it can, and does flow very freely.
@@Maungateitei wow interesting, and what is the longest rhyolite lava flow in the world???
Has there been a large increase in volcanic activity in recent months or is it just the UA-cam algorithm hitting me with all these vids about eruptions ha
There are always about 40-50 volcanic eruptions going on at any one time.
That said, we _did_ have both the Icelandic eruptions threatening populated areas (there's always a whole bunch of comparable eruptions going on, just not threatening anything) and last week's Ruang eruption that was the second largest in the past 30 years, so it's been a noteworthy year. If Shiveluch decides to join in with a VEI 4 of it's own, in particular when it already produced one just last year, that would make 2024 quite an unusual year. Almost on the level of 1991, which featured Pinatubo's VEI 6 eruption (the largest in the past 100 years, unless you take a higher-end estimate for the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai eruption back in January 2022), a major VEI 5 eruption from Mt Hudson, and the notable Unzen eruption where several renowned volcanologists were killed in a pyroclastic flow.
Manager not found, Karan- most affected.
We can only hope...............
Do you think the recent volcanic eruptions are increasing. Or would you consider this average volcanic activity
"simultaneously erupting at the same time..." ? ?? Minutes Mark ~3:95
🤣
The joy of lava lamps 😃
Release the Karan!!
The earth is very busy these days I live on the New Madrid fault line I'm waiting for something crazy to happen
This has become alarming.
Gah might as well subscribe now huh.
Does volcanoes stop time like an earthquake
The only volcano desperate for compensation!
Karen awakens, managers at risk 😢
The Karendome is my new favourite word
*Karandome
I understand that these volcanos are remote, but its still Russia. Why is there not much available footage available for these?
It's a very thinly populated area.
I'm sure it's classified 🤣
Is that how you pronounce Shiveluch? I always heard it Shev-a-loosh. But it's Sheev-looch? Huh.
I always thought it was SHEE-va-look.
Karan woke up cranky... complaints incoming
Some weird comments here. Ya’ll know this is a science channel, right?
stop being a KARAN😅😅
@@TheHighway420n yeah, that was pretty funny in the first 20 comments.
Highly degassed andesite I imagine... but what about the hotter stuff pushing it....hmmmmmm
Karan’s mad that it is not a super volcano
(Yes I know this joke is terrible)
Some years ago their was as far as I know unsubstantiated talk of a link between solar activity and volcanic eruption's. Particularly as we are in soler max just now, I wander what you think of it ? Is there any corelation in the solar v the volcanic record?
PS Your channel's such a resort to us interested ammeters, I would have no way of getting informed information without your work ,thanks.
That pseudoscience talk continues. Solar activity is on an eleven year cycle. Volcanic activity isn't. No correlation.
See suspicious observers
Its good we can experience stone age again.
A mountain having a karen episode. Love the video title lol
Is there more eruptions than usual?
No, we just hear about them more because of better communications and better observation, e.g. satellite monitoring of very remote locations. There are usually about 40-50 volcanoes erupting on any given day.
These things have all become better than last year? People have been giving your response for the last 20 years it seems.
@@kjw79The Smithsonian Institute maintains a large online database of volcanic activity world wide. You can look at that and decide how much change there has been (if any).
According to Wikipedia Shiveluch erupts around 0.015 km3 (0.0036 cu mi) of magma per year, which causes frequent and large hot avalanches and lava dome formations at the summit.
Volcanic ash emissions from this volcano also often disrupt air traffic connecting the Asian and North American continents.
This contradicts the uploaders assertion that its dome has been inactive for 1,200 years.
Multiple lava domes
@@christinearmington : "Lava dome formations" is plural !
So what you're telling us is Karen is suddenly and unexpectedly angry, getting angrier and is in danger of blowing! 😉🤣🤣 Telling the managers to leave early, neighbors to lock their doors and to not answer the phones, teachers to hide. Gotcha! 😎 For the general safety of society at large, we graciously thank for this important PSA, Sir.
1200 years yep I honestly believe that Yellowstone is not that far behind now
😂
What about Campi??
GH - friendly request that you not put long captions in while you’re talking like at 2:53 other than credits, sources stats, or footnotes…Speak those captioned words out loud, or stop talking and give us a minute to read.
Don't you have a pause or stop button on your device? 🙄
Those who want to read those screens can pause, others can continue on with the video. Pretty easy
🤣I notice you gotta clarify why parts of Russia are at risk of being incinerated now.
And everyone knows how explosive Karen can be.
Karen dome 😂
Carl Sagan still Lives.!!!
Kip Dynamite really knows geology.
Karan's got a gun😜oh shitz🤣
No, no, NO! It's Jamie who's got a gun.
Кво стана с Руанг?
He did a video on it yesterday
@@HerMajesty1 do u think ruang will do it again?
I would suggest Putin to build his new bunker in Kamchatka near the Sheveluch’s summit. I think Russian Karen would like to speak with him 😈
I clicked for the Karen jokes. Was not disappointed.
"Suddenly" came to life after almost a year of increasing seismic activity....words have meanings, bud!
A Karan erupting you say? 😂😂
Mauritius has dormant volcano for many years May God save our country All around the world the volcanoes erupting
They're always erupting...
Can people please just stop parking outside Karen’s house?
I put a keyword in my last comment. With Charlie Tuna trolls will rise to the bait?
I expected so many Karen's joke and I was not disappointed haha.
The Karen jokes write themselves
Yep, I read Karen awakens
Dangerous places are inhabited by poor people.
Why so many "Climate Change" Karen's here?
The Earth's magnetic poles started moving in the 1840's at a slow pace. This happens every 12,000 years. As we progress in time they are accelerating at a faster and faster rate. There is a pole flip coming as well as a highly diminished magnetic field which will allow more harmful radiation from the Sun to penetrate this shield. Also, the LLSVPs quite possibly will cause large portions of certain continents to subside, much like what happened to Atlantis probably 12,000 years ago. Bigger earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and electrical storms are coming that could take out the electrical and communications grids. Thanks for listening!
The flips of the magnetic poles are extremely irregular, sometimes happening within a few thousand years from each other, and sometimes not happening for tens of millions of years.
Also, Plato explicitly invented Atlantis as a fictional location to place the (equally fictional) utopia he created for his philosophical arguments.
The poles don't flip on a 12,000 year cycle. They flip at a very wide range of intervals. Continental drift was established by dating rock on either side of the mid-Atlantic Ridge, so you can easily find maps that show the intervals. Atlantis was a rhetorical device used by Plato to describe his ideas about the ideal city, not a real place.
1 million frozen solid dead mammoths in siberia. Dated to arou d 12,000 years ago. We had a pole shift. There is so much evidence. @@Leyrann
@@earthlymatters888If there are a million frozen mammoths in Siberia, why have only a few dozen at most been found? And the dates span several tens of thousands of years, for those that have been dated. "They wouldn't print/post it if it weren't true" is not a very good standard for evidence.
@@b.a.erlebacher1139-- Well you know what W.C. Fields said, "there's a sucker born every minute". People who believe in Atlantis are just that.😂
Of course it’s a Karen lmao
Bro, April 1st is the day for pranks, not May 3rd, you’ve got it all wrong
A Karen would have to be quite dead not to be erupting. The whole planet seems to be COOKING.

Earthquakes everywhere....inparticular in places where they don't usually happen. Campei flagrei and its ever increasing uplift and associated earth quakes as well as the sinster rumblings of its near neighbour Vesuvius and also activity at mount Etna...the continued and worsening activity in various parts of iceland....the repeated large multiple eruptions in Indonesia.... significant seismic activity at Yellowstone the readings of which the USGS is actively lying about and also constantly downgrading....volcanic activity in Chile and probably a host of other locations worldwide I've missed/forgotten or simply had kept secret from me/us....and now this! Its like a non stop roller coaster ride to apocalypse this is.... 🤨🤪😝😜😬 Am i the only one thats getting a daily increasing feeling of impending doom and global destruction coming sometime soon or does anyone else get it too! 😂 Reply quickly whilst theres still an internet, electricity or most importantly whilst theres still time!!💥🔥⚰️🙈😂🥺
Chill.
You should turn off the computer and step back for your mental health. Deep breaths
Drugs are bad, m'kay?
Its a fucking joke dickweed!!
that eclipse coinciding with the devil's comet passing are both bad omens; now we have, on top of everything else, a Karen volcano acting up.
why am I not surprised? 🫣
That sounds like the same superstitious thinking of people thousands of years ago?! 🙄
