Did anyone notice that there are two volcanoes erupting in Mexico right now?

Link please!

That would be a very interesting development, mother earth is getting angry!

They've been erupting and spewing smoke many years already. This isn't new.

I found the volcanoes at hisz.rsoe when someone else posted that link. One is popocetepetl and I don't remember the other one. Again...why aren't we seeing any echoes of all of this activity on the Yellowstone seismos? It seems strange when yesterday we saw echoes of the quakes in Indonesia. Anyone else think this is strange? I've asked this question several times and no one else seems to think it's important, and maybe it isn't, but if anyone knows why...pls let me know. I'm new at this. TIA!

"My quick responce as an Engineer would be due to the differences at each location. Depth, soil or rock content, ect. "

I would imagine your quick response is probably spot on. Some of the sensors, I read somewhere, are actually buried up to 500' within the Earth itself. I would assume that you wouldn't need to turn the dial up as much, as it were, on those.

If your really wanting to dig into this, here is a link with everything about how to make and calibrate a Seisometer

Warning, this is very in depth and confusing to most.

Well I have a question thats been bugging me.
If Yellowstone had the Big One and blew the caldera, besides the immediate destruction of the caldera, wouldn't the freakin HUGE blast cause a freakin HUGE EQ that would be felt for perhaps hundreds of miles around?

I dont hear that from any of the experts, just the fact that it would destroy everything within 60-100 miles. I dont know, I dont think I've read anything so far concerning that.

Below is just thoughts of what a 7.8 would do to LA.
When it originally came out there were many different view points to observe from
but right now I can only find this one.
For the most part we have all seen the animation for Y so I wont post that again.
Just multiply this one by say oh... 1k.. for starters

Greyling,
There are about 20 erupting volcanoes worldwide at any given time.
Just do a google search on active volcanoes and you will see. Nothing abnormal there. Welcome to our Living Planet and ATS!

For historical purposes of the thread, at this time according to RSOE there are currently 29 Volcanoes worldwide in some state of eruption.

Edit for additiona reference - The Smithsonian currently has the largest list of named volcanoes on earth. The Global Volcanism Program database currently contains 1580 volcano names (1540 Holocene and 40 Pleistocene with thermal activity) (bolded), 1985 synonyms, and 9156 subfeatures, for an overall total of 12721 names, sorted below in alphabetical order.

It appears that all of the telemetry data for the continental US is down right now... aslwww.cr.usgs.gov... except for this one. aslwww.cr.usgs.gov... but that one is from South Dakota. Can anyone make sense of it?

Ah, okay, I found a couple more... aslwww.cr.usgs.gov... and aslwww.cr.usgs.gov... Those two are Pennsylvania and Indiana.

If I'm reading that right, the South Dakota readout shows quite a large bump at about Noon today.

Alright, I've got to take a break for a while. Back later. Sooner if I hear a boom.

I was just joking. I like Clear Lake. It was fun, and beautiful... Figured someone would google it and see how pretty it is there.

Callistoga is fun too.

I wouldn't worry there hasn't been any unusuall activity for at least the last 24hours.Its done.

Is there some application or website which allows to convert recent seismograph data from known and "hot" locations into audio files or which provides them directly? It would be interesting to hear some of these, sometimes it's easier to recognize certain patterns or waves by ear than by eye.

Volcano report from Smithsonian& USGS updated every Wednesday
www.volcano.si.edu...

I think most of this is not the usual day to day stuff.

But..............I think alot of these postings are items that happen all the time and most here do not know what a violent planet they chose to live on.
I think if you look at most years, this would be par for the course.

I think also maybe that we should get back to looking at and talking about Yellowstone. There is another thread to discuss Indonisia and the others.

Ah, I see things are still quiet. I noticed they have changed settings on the gear. they must be adjusting for all the other activity across the globe. Ya know it's to bad they don't have a station like the weather channel that only does volcanoes around the planet. I'd sure love that job as a camera guy.

Yellowstone has been removed from Elevated Volcanic Activity list. Wonder why it was added on for one day yesterday ...

Hrm I didnt see it on there, also that link doesnt say they took it off.
Are you saying you saw it there yesterday and now its not?

Yes it was absolutely on there. I had been keeping an eye on that page. I posted about it when it was added and also posted the cached page from the previous update to show it wasn't on there the day before. I think it was on the january 3rd update.

Id say there isn't anything unusual going on.I agree to keep watching yellowstone but I wouldn't be expecting any like the last week.

A series of multiple low frequency quakes seem to point to magma movement more then the higher, more "jarring" quake frequencies associated with Earth quakes. The higher frequency seem to be more associated with "standared" Earth quake patterns as caused by tectonic shifts, as occure along our main worldwide quake sites.

I don't know the types of quakes they are picking up in Yellowstone. If very low frequency (VLF), or that measured as infrasound or sound beneath our typical hearing range is being detected it might be because there is magma movement, and that could a very serious problem. Some evidence points quakes of this type preceeding major volcanic erruptions. A higher frequency quake in an area can translate into a lower frequancy volcanic ininiator depending on the type of rock it passes through. Think of certain rocks acting like a transformer to step up or step down electric power.

Last, numerous types of pre-quake energy states seem to produce, mabey through piziolectric effects other types of energy that can be picked up by animals hours or even days before a quake. The Chinese have this well documented for centuries. I really want to know WHAT those animals are experiencing. If we have a lot of persistant VLF quakes in and around Yellowstone, or quakes of a higher frequency outside of Yellowstone with that energy passing through certain rock layers that "convert" it to a VLF type energy, all of North America, and then everyone else would be in for one hell of a biblical experience.

Could anybody answer my question? Is there a possibility that HAARP in Alaska could be causing this? With the quakes in Alaska and the news story thar many people in Alaska had seen lights in the sky and a loud boom..also China accusing the USA of using it??

In the other yellowstone links thread, I posted a report last night about Alaska causing yellowstone to change

Ok here it is:

Study by Robert Smith - QUAKE IN ALASKA CHANGED YELLOWSTONE GEYSERS From 2,000 Miles away.

A powerful earthquake that rocked Alaska in 2002 not only triggered small earthquakes almost 2,000 miles away at Wyoming's Yellowstone National Park - as was reported at the time - but also changed the timing and behavior of some of Yellowstone's geysers and hot springs, a new study says.

While other large quakes have been known to alter the activity of nearby geysers and hot springs, the Denali fault earthquake of Nov. 3, 2002, is the first known to have changed the behavior of such hydrothermal features at great distances, according to Smith and his colleagues. They say the magnitude-7.9 quake was one of the strongest of its type in North America in the past 150 years.

Scientists once believed that an earthquake at one location could not trigger earthquakes at distant sites. That belief was shattered in 1992 when the magnitude-7.3 Landers earthquake in California's Mojave Desert triggered a swarm of quakes more than 800 miles away at Yellowstone, as well as other temblors near Mammoth Lakes, Calif., and Yucca Mountain, Nev.

Do not know of one to convert recent recordings but here is a sample of one that you can listen to.Scroll towards the bottom and click on earthquake recording.

Thank you ,Thank you for reposting this

Why hasn't this Page not been updated since the 2nd? Or has there been no quakes?

reply to post by arbiture


yes but if there is always movement under ground maybe the animals have grown accustomed to it?

they will move when they know its time to move

then it's time for everyone to move!

if worst came to the worst and it turned into the super volcano we have all heard about, the whole planet will go under.

better get the masks at the ready, but animals won't be wearing them!
