Anonymous Coward User ID: 963695 Canada 05/12/2010 12:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm thinking the FLIR is effected by distance to heat source too. So when the ground is the only thing visible in fog.. the FLIR will register it as the hottest part of the image and give it a white hot designation. When the eruption is visible, the ground is still hot, obviously due to daytime lighting, but also relative distance to the camera as opposed to the eruption plume. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 963695I have seen images during an eruption. The erupting gases register white, then according to your theory the ground would not be white. And the relative distance is less then 1/4. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 913463 United States 05/12/2010 01:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | FLIR shows relative heat Quoting: aVianthe ground is hotter than the clouds its not white hot it might be 50f on the ground the clouds might be 40f not the same as when erupting seen this before nothing to worry about Precisly, a temp deviation of a mere 40-50 degrees F could white out the screen depending on the setting they are using. Not really a big deal unless you know the actual temperature gradient in use. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 962050 Norway 05/12/2010 01:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That looks really scary. The white colour is just as hot as the mouth of the volcano. The first thought that struck me when I saw it, was the scene from the movie "2012" when they were flying over Hawaii in the Antonov plane, and saw the whole island melting away in streams of lava. |

And you, Sir/Madame are quite rude and ignorant your own self...I probably did jump to some incorrect conclusions, based on what I had seen last night and how different it looked this morning....but I thought I made it clear that I didn't quite understand what was going on (hence the question about cool temps being maroon colored)..and you are also correct, I was not thinking about daytime vs nighttime, cool temps vs possible warm temps making a difference to the camera..seems to me there's a whole lot more people on this thread who didn't quite understand how the infrared camera worked, but how do we learn??? by discussing and asking questions as a rule..so take your ignorance and stuff it...not all of us are geologists...or infrared experts... |
