The United States Has a New Volcanic Eruption; Ahyi Seamount

Aerated water is weirdly scary

It's great that it's so easy to acquire data like this so readily. It may seem like many of these phenomena are common, but before extensive data collected by satellites and assessed by cheap, powerful computers were so readily available almost nothing was known about this other than rare spotting of some vague aspect that would have been impossible to acquire rough data from at any reasonable cost. It's really just a few decades that made it common to get so much accurate info for really feasible cost.

Thanks for all the hard work on these videos!

Thanks as always, Geology Hub!

Harmless unless you are the ship unlucky enough to meet a gas plume ...

Out of sight...
Out of mind.

Thank you for keeping us updated on all interesting volcanos 🌋 all over the world.

Thank for your information and a comment for the algorythm 😊🌋

So for practical purposes, the water is as dense as the rock the lava would be trying to flow through, and keeps the gas in the rock via pressure, so all it can really do is burble lava? Can it caldera at depth?

Me waiting for a West Coast volcano to wake up:

A bit of a stretch for this title!

Love your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and information. Always looking forward to your next video! Thanks again.

Thanks for sharing😊

"Never sail your ship directly over an erupting volcano" is really good life advice.

"So we may have some fairly uncommon basalt, basaltic andesite, or andesite composition pumice on our hands."

This is not altogether a bad thing given that pumice is commercially used as a hand cleaner.

How would you detect pumice floating on the ocean? I'm guessing they are cohesive patches of gravel sized material that either sink after losing buoyancy or or get dispersed by waves?

Could you research and do a video on 1607 Bristol Channel Tsunami in England. There's a program on about it on Channel 5 9pm UK time. It was a widely considered a storm surge but more professionals are now leaning towards the possibility it was a Tsunami. Yet there’s no evidence of an eruption or earthquake recorded that year unless something was missed and wasn’t recorded. An underwater landslide doesn’t hold much ground either. Thought it would be an interesting video.

Hummus? (Sometimes pop filters work too well.)

👍😎

Thanks.

Thanks.

Volcano scored a zero. The only way is up!

Hey, a new island is being made just like hawaii lol.

Interesting

10 US miles being 8.69 nautical miles (1 nautical mile = 1852 m). Just FYI. :)

I remember a few years back where a cruise ship was crossing over something and then all of a sudden there was an island popping up which is actually an exploding volcano

Will this eruption be harmless, or "mostly harmless?"

Along with the information you present about geology, I appreciate the explanations of various processes!! Thank you GH!!!

Very interesting information, as always. You have encouraged my fascination with volcanoes and the devastating impact they have, not just in geological terms, but in the way in which past large eruptions had political and cultural implications around the globe. I'm wondering if the information you presented today may explain some of the Bermuda Triangle mystery.

Zero "official" hazard rating at Ahyi yet as you mention there's at least a potential buoyancy loss risk from gas releases? Maybe "officials" should be more risk averse so crews on ships could at least be aware.

"Mostly harmless," p'rhaps.

Should it not have a score of 1 since even you stated a ship could go over it and sink. So technically not a 0 risk. But maybe the odds are so low it rounded to 0.

your voice sucks

Please have a real person giving the commentary. If you speed this commentary up twice it sounds a lot better.

IEEEEE!!!

Very interesting and educational. Thank you for your work ❤🎉

For the algorithm

This is cool, but. I imagine a pair of lips talking through a hole in the wall, when I listen! Lol

I’m sorry you have such a bad voice, but I know you can change it with so many things you can do to change the tone, but I can’t continue to listen to you. I thought you should know.

The narrator sounds alien as in from Mars! I can’t 😂 lmfao 🤣

........ No, I just viewed THE TOMORROW WAR movie......

Imagine still being a seamount in 2024.

Thanks for this coverage♒️🌐

If the VEI = 0 just send some diver down to video the eruption. Its quite shallow below the surface of the sea

Only suicides sail over a marine volcano

Quality content, as expected. Of ourse, this video got a 'like'.

The Grecian pumice reminded me of asteroid Benu.

Always educational and informative. Thank you.

That 0 score is straight diss.

Wouldn't the underwater earthquakes cause a sunami?
