Yellowstone volcano: earthquakes in the U.S. Rock of Supervolcano – What’s Outbreak? | Science | News


U.S. Yellowstone Volcano Monitor for all signs of volcanic and seismic activity. The Geological Survey (USGS) has published its monthly report for August. Between August 1 and September 1, 2020, there were a total of earthquakes in the Yellowstone Park area, with five outbreaks of Yellowstone’s steamboat geysers. The update comes amid fears and social media rumors when the U.S. Supervolcano has exacerbated the eruption 640,000 years after its last major eruption.

One Twitter user said: “Sometimes I remember that Yellowstone could explode at any moment, and then it takes longer to fall asleep.”

The other person said: “You’ve got only one life, enjoy delicious food, embrace every awful moment, and live your life on your own terms.

“Also, there’s a cal ladra in Yellowstone National Park that has about 1,000,000 years left to explode, so yes, just live it!”

A third Twitter user said: “Oh my God, 2020 is another surprise …

“Don’t forget that Yellowstone is a super volcano that will one day erupt and affect the impact of U.S. scientists on most continents …”

During the month of August, the University of Utah seismograph stations recorded earthquakes in the Yellowstone National Park area of ​​northwestern U.S.

The strongest earthquake was 7.6, seven miles west of the Old Faithful Geyser.

The quake struck at 11.12 am local time on 20th August.

And just two days earlier, a 12-mile tremor was felt in the north-north direction of the geyser.

However, the strongest of the shocks is the micro. There was a “micro” earthquake of magnitude “.

The USGSA said: “August Gust was a wonderful month for the geysers in Yellowstone.”

The agency added: “Geyser activity like this is normal and does not reflect deep volcanic processes, but is a spectacular sight to behold.”

So, is any of this activity a sign of Yellowstone waking up from his sleep?

USGS According to Na, all the activity on the supervisors remains at the background level and there is not a single piece of evidence to support the claim of excessive explosion.

The USGSA said: “Almost all earthquakes in Yellowstone have had brittle-failure events when rocks break due to crystal stress.

“Although we have been searching for the Yellowstone for years, no one has yet identified the ‘long-period (LP)’ events that are generally attributed to the magma movement.

“When they observe, it doesn’t mean that Yellowstone is ready to explode.

“LP earthquakes are commonly found in other volcanoes around the world, including California, which have not been filled for centuries or millennia.
