When the whole of Europe experienced the disaster of a political nature, in the United States shook the earth firmly in the most literal sense - in the national park in Wyoming was an earthquake, whose strength was nearly 5 points, and all the media reports that he would soon come to an endSveta.
What happened in April this year in the National Park of American state?
the spring of this year, experts from around the world have begun to sound the alarm about the fact that the volcano Yellowstone in the United States began to show its activity, to wake up.The reason for this became more earth tremors, the strongest of which had a capacity of 4.8 points, and a significant increase in the temperature of water in the geyser lakes.According to experts, this could cause catastrophic consequences, up to the Apocalypse.So far, no end of the world did not happen, though, and this volcano wakes up in America, but how long will this continue to be relatively quiet life?No one can even imagine.In fact, the processes that are taking place under the ground, people know no more than that going on at the far end of the cosmos, and, perhaps, when he wakes up the Yellowstone volcano, all of us waiting for a nasty surprise.As we have said, this can only be guessed at.
Which volcano wakes up in America?What is special about Yellowstone volcano?
It is located in Wyoming, in Yellowstone National Park.Very beautiful park itself, and in particular the Yellowstone volcano photos of these places say that.Volcano is so huge that it does not close all even notice.You can simply do not understand that's what you're watching is a volcanic vent.In fact, this is a huge "cup" in the mountains, which are located in the national park.Speaking the language of science, the "cup" is called a caldera.It covers an area of 4000 square kilometers.For a more accurate representation of example, that the area of "bowl" - is half the area of Moscow and two areas of Tokyo.At this time, it is the strongest of the active volcano on Earth.According to scientists, the force of the eruption of the volcano would be comparable to the force of the blast thousands of atomic bombs.
volcano that can not calm down
Also, the researchers found that over the last 17 million years, with the periodicity of approximately 600 thousand years, the volcano wakes up in America.During eruptions on the surface thrown a huge amount of ash and lava.The caldera of the thickness of the crust is only 400 meters, and the average thickness of the planet it is 40 kilometers.According to the researchers, most recently Yellowstone volcano erupted 640,000 years ago.So, perhaps, we will soon be talking about what Yellowstone volcano wakes up in America.And the world begins another large-scale disaster, which resulted in all living things die.
Really, when he wakes up the Yellowstone volcano will happen end of the world?
Some researchers believe that the risk of disaster is very high.According to them, the force of the eruption is comparable to the force of the cataclysm that occurred even during the birth of life on Earth.In the United States will be poured out many thousands of cubic kilometers of lava.The places in which the lava will not reach, will be covered with volcanic ash.All of North America will turn into uninhabited wilderness.
Other countries, according to experts, too, can not avoid trouble, t. To. The ashes will rise in the Earth's atmosphere and close the entire surface of our planet from the sun.Throughout the world there will be a very long night.It will be impossible to see anything, even at arm's length.
on Earth, devoid of solar heat, winter reigns.The temperature in different parts of the world falls to a level of -15 to -50 degrees.Plants die, agricultural production will decline sharply.People will die of hunger and exposure.According to experts, will die 99% of the population, and the countdown to the start of the terrible days already begun ...
What signs indicate that the eruption is near?
Not the fact that the experts are right and everything is over so scary as described just above.Nevertheless, since the beginning of 2014 in Yellowstone occurred, according to various estimates, from 60 to 200 aftershocks.The strongest of them was recorded March 30, its capacity is, as already mentioned, 4.8 points.The temperature of the geyser many lakes in the national park has risen sharply by 20 degrees.This means that the magma moves through the Earth's crust faults in the Earth's surface.
According to scientists, in the case of the explosion of the volcano in Yellowstone, the ground can shed huge masses of magma, the amount of which will be somewhere in the 80 to 20 kilometers.Perhaps the end of the world does not, and die not so much the people, or in general all remain alive, but the US economy may be severe stroke.It is possible that other countries will help the United States cope with the consequences of the disaster that may occur due to the fact that the Yellowstone volcano wakes up in America.
What else can happen in the case of the explosion of the volcano in Yellowstone?
As already clear message about the imminent end of the world after the earth tremors in Yellowstone somewhat premature.Definitely it does not start right now or in the near future.Nevertheless, the fact that it is not at all, and can not be guaranteed.Perhaps in Yellowstone happen giant earthquake that too, without a doubt, will cause significant harm.
In general, the possibility of the eruption and the consequences of that will be, when he wakes up Yellowstone volcano, we can not say for sure, we can only guess.Perhaps ordinary people say is not everything and something to hide from them.No one will say this for sure.We only know that in the spring the US government did not evacuate people from areas close to Yellowstone National Park.
