Volcanic Eruptions and Hazards

Volcanic Eruptions and Hazards

Слайд 2





What is a volcano?
 A volcano is a vent or 'chimney' that connects molten rock (magma) from within the Earth’s crust to the Earth's surface. 
The volcano includes the surrounding cone of erupted material.

What is a volcano? A volcano is a vent or 'chimney' that connects molten rock (magma) from within the Earth’s crust to the Earth's surface. The volcano includes the surrounding cone of erupted material.

Слайд 3





How and why do volcanoes erupt?
Hot, molten rock (magma) is buoyant (has a lower density than the surrounding rocks) and will rise up through the crust to erupt on the surface.
Same principle as hot air rising, e.g. how a hot air balloon works
When magma reaches the surface it depends on how easily it flows (viscosity) and the amount of gas (H2O, CO2, S) it has in it as to how it erupts.
Large amounts of gas and a high viscosity (sticky) magma will form an explosive eruption!
Think about shaking a carbonated drink and then releasing the cap.
Small amounts of gas and (or) low viscosity (runny) magma will form an effusive eruption
Where the magma just trickles out of the volcano (lava flow).

Earthquake activity commonly precedes an eruption
Result of magma pushing up towards the surface
Increase volume of material in the volcano shatters the rock
This causes earthquakes

Deformation Monitoring
“Tiltmeters” are used to measure the deformation of the volcano
The tiltmeters measure changes in slope as small as one part per million. A slope change of one part per million is equivalent to raising the end of a board one kilometer long only one millimeter!

Gas Monitoring
Commonly gas output from a volcano increases or changes composition before an eruption.
As magma rises to the surface it releases (exsolves) much of its gas content.
This can be measured

Noxious Gas
Lake Nyos is a crater lake inside a dormant volcano.
The lake had become laden with carbon dioxide gas. 
This gas had suddenly bubbled out of the lake and asphyxiated nearly every living being in the surrounding valley.

Noxious Gas
A management plan has been developed to remove gas from the lake to prevent a further tragedy.
An artificial vent to the lake surface was created with pipe.
Water is pumped from the bottom of the lake to the surface through the pipe, where it can degas.

Noxious Gas
The Lake Nyos incident was not unique. 
Two years earlier, Lake Monoun, 60 miles to the southeast, released a heavy cloud of toxic gas, killing 37 people. 
A third lake, Lake Kivu, on the Congo-Rwanda border in Central Africa, is also known to act as a reservoir of carbon dioxide and methane, which is a valuable natural gas that is gathered from the lake and used locally.

Earthquakes
Large volumes of magma moving through the shallow crust can cause large earthquakes.
This can lead to building collapse, slope failure and avalanches
