Volcanic Eruption Gives Birth to 'New Island' in Japan

Some two months after the birth of a new Island in Pakistan following an earthquake, we now have one following a volcanic eruption again.

Pictures released by the Japanese coast guard show a new island forced up by an underwater volcanic eruption in the seas a thousand kilometres south of the capital Tokyo.

Authorities say it is yet too early to determine if the landmass is here to stay.

According to Japanese media, the last time a volcano formed a new island in the area was in the 1970s.

Not that uncommon of course, but there´s some impressive footage of the event: Enjoy.

That would have been kind, yes. Thank you anyway.
The search didn´t help me either. A reccuring problem with the new search-engine.

Consider this thread non-existent, then.

Thanks for the tip, will try in future.

Hmmm,
How interesting this happens after the last months uptick in solar activity and several
other volcanoes waking up all around the same time..
