It’s not so much Vesuvius that people are worried about but the Campi Flegrei caldera on the other side of Naples which is showing signs of erupting any day now. The land around Pozzuoli and Baia bay is rising and earthquakes are increasing. The local government are playing it down because that area relies on tourism but the vulcanologists are very concerned as a few million will perish if that volcano erupts and the noxious plume effects would be felt over Europe. Indeed, it would cause a volcanic winter for a year or so!

@haraldlund9261
September 30, 2024 at 8:07 am
The three latest caldera forming eruptions at Yellowstone are currently dated at 630 000, 1,3 and 2,1 million years ago. I don’t think her estimate of every 300 000 years on average is correct. Globally speaking, super eruptions are considered to occur once every 100 000 years.
@Moraenil
September 30, 2024 at 5:23 pm
Yeah, I was expecting more about it, especially since a few months ago, Old Faithful suddenly spewed ash for a day and the ground around it lifted by about 5 inches. I think her answer on timing was thrown off by the fact that it’s normally about every 100,000 ish years, BUT it’s also around 150,000 years overdue if I’m remembering the numbers right. So, in this case, there’s a difference between how often it normally goes off, and when it went off last. And my favorite volcano is the Yellowstone Supervolcano.

At 14:24 sadly that’s not at all what I would’ve meant by the question.

All the water in our bodies submerged I lava too quickly makes us very explode-y

11:22 She doesn’t answer the question, which was whether any supervolcanoes are due for a major eruption.

Mt Yasur has been erupting for over 800 years. Even if that’s wrong, Captain Cook witnessed it erupting in the 1700s… Also the LARGEST AND BIGGEST eruption we know if is Mt Toba in Indonesia. It erupted over 13000 cubic kilometers of material. So imagine 13000 Mt St Helens erupting all at the same time. Tambora is the biggest one in living history.

Vesuvius Meh
Auckland is built on an active volcanic field of approximately 53 volcanoes , the last of which erupted 500 years ago.
Taupō super Volcano has not erupted for approximately 1,800 years , it historically has major eruptions every thousand years or so (over a timeline of last 10,000 years of eruptions).
This volcano has produced two of the world’s most powerful eruptions in geologically recent times

“What, my hotel is next to an active volcano?!!” do people not know how to do basic internet searches? Jeeze.

Wait, a Supervolcano isn’t categorized by its super eruption, but instead by the capability to produce a supereruption, usually by the capacity of its caldera…? Yes? Maybe they got confused with the questioning individual’s somewhat dual-lined question?

My favourite volcanos are the “Chaîne des Puys”, because that’s where I moved recently, plus they look really cool and don’t seem to be at risk of killing me any time soon😅😊

I got the chance to see one of the Hawaiian volcanos erupt as a child. Not like the blast, but the lava flowing down to the sea. We were far away but drove to a safe distance to see the lava flow. Amazing memory.

Hello, volcano support? My volcano is stuck on loading. I’ve tried turning it off and on again, but it just gets stuck on the loading screen. I checked my connection and it seems to be working alright. I thought maybe I was trying to upload too big of a magma file (I was going for 10 cubic gigs), but now I can’t access the drive to fix it.

I love how every time Mt. Tambora comes up, it’s mentioned that the explosion was heard as far away as Australia… given our states are <150km apart (on land). Some of Australia is closer to Mt. Tambora than some of Indonesia.

Whilst in the military in Naples a few friends got a little bit drunk on wine in the sun.
Decided to go for a walk up Vesuvvius.
Half way up we were invited into a restaurant – all the restaurants were shut for winter.
It was, a family event to celebrate a grandmother.
They must known how daft our mission was as we were caught up by by a lad in a car – his grandmother told us take us to the top.
Given food and more wine.
Being very drunk and stupid we thought it a good idea to go down into the crater for a better look.
I got some volcanic ash and rocks, still warm and put them in my pockets.
Fortunately a warden saw us and gave us a right mouthful in Italian.
He then drove us down into town and dropped us off at a nearby train station.
We really must have looked out of place.
Minutes later we were surrounded by men in civilian clothing pointing handguns at us.
They were Italian drug squad officers.
They thought they had got a great bust on finding the bags of ash etc I had on me.
The look of disgust on their faces on realising what it was. 😂
I love Naples and Italy ❤
I still have the ash and rocks.

How do volcanologists utilize AI? Hopefully we can predict more accurately when volcanoes will erupt. Maybe even control, or atleast delay their eruption in order to save lives. Or even harness the energy produced during eruptions.

I don’t know about the super volcano definition, one thousand million cubic kilometres of earth would be a cube of material the size of the Gulf of Mexico and 1,000 kms deep, that would cause the Earth itself to collapse.

That question about volcanologists is so ignorant. Every volcano is an individual, with oddities and quirks. Just like every human body. So, almost exactly like medical doctors, volcanologists study these individual volcanoes to see how they tick and, more importantly, to predict when they will blow up destructively. They’re the first line of defense when a volcano acts up and people need to evacuate the regions around volcanoes.
