I put a lot of effort into compiling and analyzing all of the data displayed in today's video. I hope that you enjoyed it, as it was definitely a bit more analytical than my typical volcano news video. So, do you agree with my analysis that Taal's current eruption is more than halfway to its completion?
Think it will continue with a series of intermittent phreatic explosions as I agree that the magma hasn't built up enough pressure to erupt but knowing the nature of Taal it would like to prove us wrong .I certainly wouldn't be caught anywhere near this menacing volcano.
Appreciate your content. I'm a geophysicist, rather than a volcanologist, but avidly interested in such systems. Fun fact, I was on Taal several years ago and supported the establishment of the monitoring network that resulted in no loss of life in the 2019 eruption. That, of course, was far different than previous eruptions over the last century that resulted in considerable deaths. Thanks for what you do and keep up the good work.
Considering Taal has had some pretty massive eruptions in the past you really cant rule out another one like that being just around the corner. Maybe not for 10 or 20 years from but thats nothing in geologic time
Hello, i know i have asked this before, but i would really like to get to learn something new about the swiss alps and how my country will have to deal with our glaciers and mountain growth in the future, since your videos help me understand a lot more than before. Also, is there still volcanic activity in these alps or is it "just mountains"? I got really confused by a older local news article.
The Alps are a mountain chain formed by continent-continent collision. Therfore there is no real subduction taking place here due to the similar density of the plates, instead there is a complex system of thrusts and folds. I think you can also find minor amounts of volcanic rocks in the alps, but these are too old to consider active volcanism still taking place in the alps today.
Thank you for covering this.. I'm based in Canada but my family actually lives like 14km away (from the volcano itself). The Volcano's always been very active but it's nice to have an idea of what's actually happening..
The volcanic earthquake swarming in the northeast part of taal volcano island wasn't always there. Beginning at 2021, from volcanic earthquakes centered in taal's main lake mitigated to the northeast of the volcano. What's slightly worrying about that place is because that place was one of taal's historical eruption center. Since magma underneath taal is moving more horizontally rather than vertically so I think the magma or volcanic gasses are reactivating closed sills around the caldera causing volcanic earthquakes near the taal volcano island.
@@marshallpeters1437 I heard it from a good geologist who helped ordinary people have a knowledge of the background of taal and the faultlines around the Philippines. On the same note, mr geologyhub also acknowledged the ring dyking that happened around 2021 and is continuing. The hypothesis of the geologist that I follow is that taal now has parked magma underneath and since feb 2021, has been releasing tons of so2 with the highest being more than 20k tonnes and that event wasn't an eruption but a few days later it had a small phreatomagmatic burst. She said that should taal's worst case scenario would be a caldera collapse due to a sudden release of pressure then the caldera collapsing into itself with help of that ring dyke.
@@marshallpeters1437 yep. That's why we consider taal as a dangerously complex volcano. It's really unpredictable if based it on the norm. Volcanoes giving of more than 10k so2 emissions are considered erupting but not taal. Last year, if not mistaken, it relessed large amounts of so2 emissions for almost 10days with it peaking at 20k-25k. Given also the historical evidences of taal's eruptive phases, it usually culminates into a large eruption especially if it's from the main crater. Last time it erupted in the main crater was the 1911 eruption where it produced a shockwave that was heard in Manila.
@@Wdtclimax555 if it blows this time there's plenty of ammo underneath it along with the threats of tsunamis from the inevitable collapse that'll happen along with it
I remember the very first major eruption in 2020 just a day before my birthday the air temperature became hotter depite my hometown is 60 kilometers north of that volcano when I was attending a Sunday evening Mass. As I went home from the church those tiny grains of volcanic ash I thought of as ants because it irritated my eyes. Only did I realized that Taal erupted yet I still went out and played my favorite online game in a shop just near my house while I noticed people walking by not aware that they're breathing toxic volcanic gases and I told them to cover their noses.
Solid work there. Btw, seems like Lascar volcano is getting active again in Chile. One of the very few volcanoes I know that failed to produce a caldera after a VEI6 eruption.
There are about 1,350 potentially active volcanoes worldwide, aside from the continuous belts of volcanoes on the ocean floor . Mother Nature is amazing.
It always surprises me that so many people live so close to active volcanoes. Living here in the Philippines, that is always a risk of disrupting life.
I hope Taal won't produce a caldera forming eruption that would destroy the middle island, this volcano is one of my country's treasures when it comes to tourism but a nightmare to people around it during eruption.
Thanks again man, you're really reliable. But it's been months since I requested the extinct volcano in Russia that suddenly awoken, Bolshaya Udina volcano.
Dunno if anyone would be interested, but my City of Edinburgh Scotland is built on an extinct Volcano, the castle, Salisbury Craggs are all old cores made of Bassault mostly.
Do monitoring of volcano involve just uplift and SO2 emissions or do they do heat signatures? Wouldn't heat release from ground be a good indicator of a eruption?
i would love if you put a name on the diferent eruptions that you show on screen thats not from the volcano you are talking about, otherwise keep up the fenominal work.
Nothing to be concerned about. Its just minor activity. TO put it in perspective, the cascade volcanos are active all the time, in fact others are more active all year round. I read about the sister volcanos, and its interesting that they don't really contain any hot spots themselves, like hot springs, fumaroles, etc. If those start to show up, maybe be more concerned.
Imagine if Philippines agreed to drill and open up Taal so released gases that reflect light. (For a price $) Climate engineering for global warming. Just an idea.
All this data..and research and theories ..here are the facts there has been alot volcano eruptions in the past few years around the 🌎...it's pretty obvious what it means ...#evolution 😏
One topic I'd like covered is the estimated VEI of the eruption of my arse after that dodgy Chinese meal at the weekend. Centered around the city of Salford, the assquake was felt over 3 miles away, with the associated gas cloud detected up to an altitude of 800m.
I find it fascinating that we give such attention and focus to creation but little or attention to the creator. If you think these volcanoes are powerful - imagine how much powerful is the God created it all from our vast universe of galaxies to the smallest micro organisms
So, what I want to know is, if "God" made the universe etc as you people try to claim, who, or what made, "God"? Who, or what, were "God's" parents?🤔😇😊.

Keep doing your thing man. Been here since a few thousand followers. Happy to see the channel growth
Well yes, but technically, could these eathquakes West of the main crater mean that magma is underway to create an effusive eruption there?

Love your work. It's excellent, really informative.
@Tina Bulea You threw my neighbours dog into a wood chipper while singing racist songs. You can't be trusted with bitcoin investment.
Appreciate the effort expended on facts & information. Interesting patterns for eruptions. Thank you.
the volcano demands we throw at least 2 politicians into it or else it will keep erupting
Here, here! We even have a surplus of extra ripe ones!!! 😸👍
How about 99% of them

I believe the Alps were formed by a subduction zone, no? European and African plates?

That's actually a really really good hypothesis. Although the lava should've cooled by that time it's still possible its remelting what's hardened

You bet we enjoy your efforts
Ever see that video of guy riding bicycle down a steep volcano when the bicycle falls apart and he wipes out so hard... love that one
Imagine you’re just chilling on that nice mountain top beach....
We'll see if Taal will get any bigger than this
Please no
nice video!!
I enjoy your well done videos a lot. I'm sure it represents a lit of work but enjoyment too on your part. And I like the voice too!
Honest question, how is the la palma volcano doing. I know it stopped a while back but id like a quick tid bit on how the island is recovering
I had not heard of this. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. :)

What's wrong with Volcano discovery website? It doesn't show the 100 earthquakes of 2-3 February.
Solid work there. Btw, seems like Lascar volcano is getting active again in Chile. One of the very few volcanoes I know that failed to produce a caldera after a VEI6 eruption.
Great concise summary
You've noticed patterns that I've missed
There are about 1,350 potentially active volcanoes worldwide, aside from the continuous belts of volcanoes on the ocean floor . Mother Nature is amazing.
Could you look into Stone Mountain, Ga, US? It’s kinda neat!
One to watch
Watch out for Taal, y'all!
It always surprises me that so many people live so close to active volcanoes. Living here in the Philippines, that is always a risk of disrupting life.
The capital and Manila are literally in the "kill zone" if it goes psycho plinian..that is frightening.
Thank you for your great analysis.
do you expecting that there will be another big eruption on Taal soon or not really? Because there was M2.7 earthquake yesterday in Taal Island.
I hope Taal won't produce a caldera forming eruption that would destroy the middle island, this volcano is one of my country's treasures when it comes to tourism but a nightmare to people around it during eruption.
I love your channel can you make more videos about Supervolcanoes!!!

What evidence is there of the magma below these volcanoes, such as in this case?
Can you talk about red Rock Colac in Victoria because I went to red Rock and it was very beautiful and I want to know more about it
Thx. I have no knowledge or training to agree or disagree with anything you say.
At 1:26, are those homes _on_ Taal's volcanic island?! I hope they evacuate 😨
Yes there are people actually living right at that volcano, called Volcano Island.
Taal has formed alot of small crater lakes on the photo wow
Hoo boy🌋 Mama!
Volcanoes of cape verde or azores
👍
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT TAAL VOLCANO WOULD ERUPT LIKE HUNGA TONGA HUNGA HAAPAI VOLCANO?
Technically, yes. However, a better worst case scenario comparison would be 1875 Askja; a Phreatoplinian eruption
@@GeologyHub Tim, no fuller explanation on this 'possibility' pls ;^/ sure would change what many have to deal w!!!
I hope taal doesn't become alert 4 or alert 6
i would love if you put a name on the diferent eruptions that you show on screen thats not from the volcano you are talking about, otherwise keep up the fenominal work.
If I understand your meaning....that would help me understand more about the diversity!
🌱🌏💚
Notice how many eruptions around the world after that massive Tonga eruption
🤦. What exactly is your point given the number of volcanoes that are active globally every day, month or year, decade etc?
500
Is there any connection between the moon's gravitational pull, which creates ocean tides, and volcanic eruptive activity?
anak krakatoa has erupted
Personally more concerned w/ Oregon eruption today~
