Unpredictable Volcanoes

There are a lot of volcanoes on Earth. And there are many varieties of them, among which there are underwater volcanoes, impressive in their power. Earth is a highly volcanic planet, and while our home planet may have some truly spectacular volcanoes, it's not the most volcanically active world in the solar system (the title belongs to one of Jupiter's moons).

  • Volcano in the sea
    Volcano in the sea
    Despite the destructive power of volcanoes, it is reliably known that the eruption releases organic compounds into the water, which are necessary for the development of phytoplankton. This, in turn, supports the diversity of the entire animal world.

  • Active underwater volcano
    Active underwater volcano
    On our planet, volcanoes located under water produce ¾ of all magma ejected from the bowels of the planet per year. Most active volcanoes are located at the junction of tectonic plates in the so-called oceanic ridges. These ridges pass for the most part deep under water (3-4 km), so most of the eruptions are not visible to humans. Yes, and it is often not possible to notice the eruption that has occurred with the help of acoustic equipment. This is due to the fact that at great depths, when magma is ejected into cold water, it immediately cools down, turning into volcanic glass, so it does not boil, so it is impossible to hear it.

  • Underwater volcano eruption in the ocean
    Underwater volcano eruption in the ocean
    Underwater volcanoes grow in height. As they erupt, they are overgrown with volcanic mass, which does not scatter far, as on the surface of the earth. Over time, the volcano goes out, having used up the reserves of its magma. If during its life the volcano reaches the surface of the water, then it gives birth to a volcanic island, and itself disappears over time.

    The most intense volcanism is manifested in the following geological settings: on active continental margins in mid-ocean ridge zones over hotspots in areas of mantle plume rise

  • Active volcano on the coast
    Active volcano on the coast
    Active volcano- a volcano that is erupting at the present time or has occurred during historical time, as well as a volcano that exhibits constant fumarolic activity.

  • Active underwater volcano
    Active underwater volcano
    An underwater volcano is a type of volcano. These volcanoes are located at the bottom of the ocean. Most modern volcanoes are located within the three main volcanic belts: Pacific, Mediterranean-Indonesian and Atlantic.
