Home Reef Volcano Eruption Update; Fresh Lava Creates New Land

I claim it

Tonga is one of the best country when it comes to volcanoes

My arbitrary fave kind of erruption are land forming ones

Thanks for sharing! 😊

With my increased cognisance of volcanism from this channel ive created some truely devastating items in my D&D campaign (there is a high power spell that my character has access to that creates a large volume of lava and a low level creation spell create water....)

Thanks.

Could you cover Isostatic depression & Post-glacial rebound?

Can I claim it and put my flag on it?

You are my main magma man

I have a feeling this island may be around a lot longer than expected

Thanks as always! It is very reassuring that Home Reef has a low gas content. Thanks for clearing this up for us, Geology Hub.
The Tongan volcanoes are some of the more interesting volcanic chains for me. Of course, there is a possibility that hitherto unidentified eruptions found in ice cores may have originated here, even if the possibility may be small. Though Home Reef is not very likely to produce such a far-reaching eruption at the moment, it will be interesting to document its evolution into the future.

Are any of these volcanic eruptions also caused by or creating earthquakes as of recent?

I'm hearing 5'5 and 5"8 magnitudes. 🌎 🌋

is there a satellite image to look at?

china will claim it..

Thanks for all the hard work on these videos

Wow, that is a lot of erosion

I have to tell you my nearly 100-year-old father who is a geologist is always impressed by your podcast. He says you really know your stuff

Excellet presentation, as always.

A quick question: Are there any active or dormant volcanos in eastern North America?

Please use a banana for size comparison next time. Thank you in advance. lol

It's always neat to have underwater volcano eruotuons create new land on the surface

Tonga better put a flag on it before China does. 😐

I call dibs on the island.

its super cool watching a new stratovolcano island form. i guess with all this fresh lava. maybe the island is pernament?

FYI, Late Island is pronounced La-tay

and the land is already added to the tax rolls.

I'm fifty six and have learned more about volcanos, their geology, causes of various kinds of eruptions and so on from watching your videos (which I've only been aware of for a few months now) than I have from all other sources over the entire course of my life.
What makes this remarkable to me is that it's always been a subject I pay attention to.
Thank you for making these, they are absolutely fascinating.

Thanks!

Is it just me or is there alot more volcanic activity this year compared to other years?

Volcano in NY?

I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but it seems your postings are becoming richer in information lately. I’m liking it!

it's only a matter of time not if but when the big one hits crazy how we can just live our daily lives till something huge happens

Does the heat from rising magma crack the hydrogen and oxygen atoms apart causing hydrogen explosions?

This is "Americana" at it's best, even if all songs are not by America lol!

It'd be interesting to know ----- if there has been an uptick in volcanic activity across the world ------ and whether there are any underlying causes

I’m sitting here amazed turning from my phone comment finding this vid . Understand, I was explaining to Bride Side Global asking about Yellowstone how in my work when THEY about Yellowstone in real time it’s the Hunga Tionga volcanic summit; like, I then mentioned Jan to Sept 2022: HBOW/Apb

You can't even hear this idiot speaking😅 he's whispering what a queer video

How long until vegetative appear?

What is the biggest eruption of 2024 so far? 🌋
