Whats going on at yellowstone?

Might be something stirring, due to this recent 7.4 Mexico earthquake today... i have gee pulled up and monitoring lkwy station, Yellowstone lake and it appears there are micro quakes occurring, now who knows if this will pick up into something bigger, but just worth mentioning...

well.. apparently nothing going on here at yellowstone.
no surprise really.. she is generally quiet

I wonder if this means anything.....other then it being a while since one of this size has happened.

A 3.1 seems a bit higher than usual but doubt
it is of concern - keep an eye out for any others
that may occur.

And now you must choose which you value more:

Your education

or

Your life

This is a difficult question to answer for a lot of people (because they're so sucked into "must get my education, or else i am nothing!!") mentality.

Uh so is this not normal then? I go to college right next to the thing! Now I really don't want to go back there after break. From somewhere I heard the date was 2010 or 2012, too bad I can't recall the source... Thats scary.

Sorry about the double post. I don't know how to delete one of them.

Here's a question:

What causes those patterns I have pointed out there?
I made those small because you cannot see those patterns when the graphs are big.

hey sweetie , how are you?

yeah those are rather strange ..

did you send a utou to PM? about these . my first thought was a herd of large animals or super high winds ..

Actually they show very clearly on the full sized version. First off they are electrical not seismic. From event centre to event centre is approximately 11mins 20 seconds which is why they march across the page. The frequency is steady at 12 Hz

The spectrum looks like this:


It exhibits harmonics and there is another signal @ 22Hz which is continuous and probably not connected.



I haven't bothered with a sound file as it is just a pulsing hum.

Did anybody notice there in Yellowstone Area "did not happens" or "did not shown"

Is it good news or bad ?

YELLOWSTONE VOLCANO OBSERVATORY MONTHLY UPDATE
Monday, April 2, 2012 11:45 AM MDT (Monday, April 2, 2012 17:45 UTC)


YELLOWSTONE VOLCANO (CAVW #1205-01-)
44°25'48" N 110°40'12" W, Summit Elevation 9203 ft (2805 m)
Current Volcano Alert Level: NORMAL
Current Aviation Color Code: GREEN

During the month of March 2012, the University of Utah reports 51 earthquakes were located in the Yellowstone National Park region. The largest was a magnitude 2.3 event on March 3 at 6:02 PM MST, located about 20 miles west northwest of West Yellowstone, MT A small swarm of 10 events was recorded on March 3 about 10 miles northwest of West Yellowstone, MT with magnitudes ranging from M 2.1 to M 0.7

Yellowstone earthquake activity continues at relatively low background levels.

Slow subsidence of the caldera, which began in early 2010, continues. Current deformation patterns at Yellowstone are well within historical norms.

OMG.... yellowstone is going to erupt!!!!!!!.





.... no,, not really .. just playin..
as usuall the field mouse fart is not heard..

Although, it would be nice to at least hear and see some rumbling..

Yellowstone 'Super-Eruption' Less Super, More Frequent Than Thought

New research reported in Science Daily says that the the biggest Yellowstone eruption, which created the 2 million year old Huckleberry Ridge deposit, was actually two different eruptions at least 6,000 years apart.

www.sciencedaily.com...

Their results paint a new picture of a more active volcano than previously thought and can help recalibrate the likelihood of another big eruption in the future. Before the researchers split the one eruption into two, it was the fourth largest known to science.

The new ages for each Huckleberry Ridge eruption reduce the volume of the first event to 2,200 cubic kilometers, roughly 12 percent less than previously thought. A second eruption of 290 cubic kilometers took place more than 6,000 years later.

interesting

developments!!



people felt it, USGS took it OFF

why???

It must have been reviewed, reviewed and reviewed again. It DID happen...and USGS now has it listed as a 4.5, with a ZERO depth. as you can see, the following is the 8th revision....something seems a bit off here:

Magnitude 4.5

Oh...and I did not watch the dutch vid...I avoid those.


ETA: Although this wasn't IN the park (quite a ways EAST) it was certainly picked up there on the seismos. Here is an example of one of the more sensitive ones: yellowstone seismo

IMO, it is close enough to raise some eyebrows....especially with it's zero depth. I wonder if they are debating whether it's an explosion? It would have to be one HECK of a blast though to register that large!!!

Shake out the cob webs - There is a mine and mining in gillette....
