    “This eruption should last at least a week”. Well that aged poorly.

      You are missing an interesting parallel and possibility here; there is major drain back event that occurred so there is a possibility here we might see something similar to the 1959 Iki eruption behavior. Now of course volcanos are unpredictable so anything we say we always have to take it as a grain of salt to ourselves!
      I just always look at things like this; any reasonable outcome is possible so that doesn't mean any are wrong it just means they didn't happen that way this time around.

      That's pretty "old" in the channel, he's using it for at least a year, but indeed, great diagram, he also has a more detailed diagram of lava which classifies not only silica but also other minerals, this channel isn't the top volcano reporting channel for nothing, it's great content for sure.

    I lived 7 miles from the caldera in Volcano when the 2018 eruption happened. We got lucky as the tradewinds held and the vog mostly went out over the Ka'u plain. Being mid winter it sounds like the kona (counter-trade) winds are blowing which would blow the vog towards closer populations and over where I lived. It irritates your throat and eyes and kills the plants. I'm glad I'm not there.

      Probably because the eruption is entirely effusive so no threat to aircraft, and entirely confined to the interior of the caldera so no threat to lives or property.

    Seems like this is similar to Iceland's volcanos, ie not explosive. Just releasing gases and then lava. Its beautiful to watch.

    • @Dragrath1
      @Dragrath1 8 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      Assuming you are referring to the Reykjanes volcano(and not one of Iceland's more siliceous volcanoes) Both are tholeiitic(i.e. chemically reduced and thus rich in iron and magnesium that has yet to be oxidized) basaltic volcanoes sourced from a mantle hotspot yeah they tend to be more effusive and calm.
      I should caution Kilauea on longer timescales has intervals where its eruptions become more explosive the most recent of which was in the early 1900's The USGS showed old footage of one of those eruptions from 1924 on its 100th anniversary. Fissures opening up and releasing pyroclastic flows. Among historically documented eruptions it has produced a VEI 4 in 1790.
      And Iceland's volcanoes are notoriously dual nature, only the Reykjanes peninsula, one of the newest areas of Iceland, is generally restricted to basaltic eruptions. Among the volcanoes in Eastern and Central Iceland some of those volcanoes which erupt Andesite Dacite Trachyte and Rhyolite.
      From looking into Iceland's mix of volcanic behavior I know at least one of them, Eyjafjallajökull(I had to look up the spelling lol), has only ever erupted with siliceous explosive volcanism during the Holocene with the least viscous lavas from it being basaltic andesite with andesite or trachyte being more typical.
      Hekla is also interesting because its eruptions tend to Start with rhyolite transitioning to dacite andesite and eventually basalt suggesting it s eruptions generally expel the contents of a stratified crystal fractionated magma chamber with the volcano being infamous for having only several hours warning before its eruptions.

    Although the eruption stopped after just a few hours, given the volume of the magma chamber, there is plenty of potential for it to resume. Remember that the eruption that started in the 1980's, lasted for more than 20 years.

    • @ericfielding2540
      @ericfielding2540 13 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      The low viscosity of the Kilauea lava means that it does not produce large explosive eruptions.

    • @Lessinath
      @Lessinath 13 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      @@ericfielding2540 Kilauea does actually sometimes produce explosive eruptions. These explosive eruptions are a documented historical fact.
      These are most likely driven by groundwater interactions in uncommon circumstances, but viscosity is just one piece of the puzzle when it comes to explosive eruptions. These took place before modern instruments, so uncertainty on *why* it has happened is high, but we know with absolute certainty they do take place.
      These are usually small, but not always. 1790 was a VEI 4 that killed at least 400 people with pyroclastic flows and surges.

    • @ericfielding2540
      @ericfielding2540 2 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      @ Yes, interactions with large amounts of water can cause explosive eruptions in basaltic volcanic systems. It would be interesting to know more about what happened in the past at Kilauea. The ice-covered volcanic systems in Iceland famous for their explosive eruptions, but Kilauea is far too close to the equator and not high enough to have any ice. There was a lake in the Kilauea crater for a few years after 2018, but it evaporated without a significant explosion.

    Love your work! I watch nearly every posting. Have you analyzed this striking Guatemala eruption? I'm curious about the initial heavy Smoke River that pours down the right side of the volcano. It doesn't appear to be lava & the rusty color makes me wonder if we're witnessing a heavy iron oxide pour as compared to the yellowish sulfurish plume that rises high above?
    I look forward to your analysis.
