100km WIDE MAGMA DOME forming on border region of Chile/ Argentina and Bolivia! IS this where the supervolcano eruption will be?

"It's a subtle motion, pushing up little by little every day, but it's this persistence that makes this uplift unusual. Most other magmatic systems that we know about show episodes of inflation and deflation,

and from same article..

Fialko said a similar uplift phenomenon is occurring near Socorro, New Mexico, but at a much lower rate.

This image shows earthquakes over 3.9 Magnitude in the last 30 days.....( so probably lots of smaller ones during the same times period...

A really interesting place to keep an eye on!

Fialko said the sombrero uplift could provide insights into the initial stages of massive magmatic events leading to the formation of large calderas. Such "super-volcano" events erupt thousands of cubic kilometers of magma into the atmosphere and can affect local and global climates. Compared with the Icelandic volcano eruption in 2011 that spewed large amounts of ash into the atmosphere and disrupted global air travel, Fialko said, a super-volcano event would be thousands of times greater.
"Those were truly disaster-type events," said Fialko. "Fortunately such events haven't happened in human history, but we know they did happen in the Altiplano-Puna area in the past."

Thats interesting wording...are they saying they believe this is a supervolcano eruption in the making???

Wow...!!

the Nazis had a base there since after the war
they continued their work on the bell and other torsion/Antigrav/spacetime stuff...

That is a huge pool of magma...

this is what a daipir looks like...

So an earthquake that allows further magma to intrude in to the underlying pool could easily set this off, as would likely cause further upward pressure...another place on earth getting set to go off like a firecracker.....!!

WOnder why the Germans would have a base there....

This isn't new.

It has been there for thousands of years.

I have no doubt that in ancient times that area has exploded via massive super volcano.

There is no current threat that it will explode anytime soon however.

Dude, we are trying to raise the Doom level up a notch for the weekend... you are not helping much.

Moving this doom event to the parking lot.... on to next doom thread. :-(

If this volcano went off- it could well be a supervolcano and its no difference from any other supervolcano in the world ...except for one difference. This one has had continued dome uplift unlike the others which seem to inflate and deflate like breathing....this one just keeps on inflating....in an area known to be very active in the past......very distant past....so is probably building up for the next big blow...it may only takes a decent sized earthquake to set if off.....

Have you noticed how the researchers commented that this could give them valuable details on what happens in the lead up to the eruption of a supervolcano...

clearly this implies that this is what they believe this is in the process of preparing for...

Mikebro, I have a German shepherd that looks almost exactly the same. His name is beast!

And since they have never been able to study a supervolcano eruption in modern history its new territory ....so nobody really knows how a supereruption will start...obviously if there is enough pressure to blow away miles of dirt/rock etc there must be a huge amount of pressure involved....

I suspect when the pressure becomes too much for the ground to contain that the dome will enlarge suddenly and explode....this could happen REALLY fast....

I was checking the Redoubt volcano last night and there is a plume of smoke coming from it ....we are all dooooooomed again

ooohhh...yeah...I saw that too...I am a proud vokeomtard!

i think it is clear that mankind needs to find a way of manufacturing food ARTIFICIALLY and fucking fast!

growing it will soon become impossible, for a period of decades to centuries, and if we want to survive, scientists need to get going on inventing artificial food.

yes, i know, yuk, but it's mankind's only hope really! even the BEST hoarders cannot survive one of these eruptions imho.

Cool video thanks!

when will it erupt?

...you are right on the money there...only so much science can do and they certainly cant reverse the current cycle the planet is in.....
things will be totally different from our reality today when one of these supervolcanoes lets rip in to the atmosphere....so yes would be a good idea if they actually started preparing for it...long term.

After the big 7.4 magnitude earthquake directly underneath next week on tuesday at 11.30am...

Cannibalism is the only answer

big changes coming.

that is ONLY 100 million years from now. yes, i know, that a LOOONG, time, but it isn't really, is it? in the history of the planet, it's mere moments away. it has to start sometime, maybe it starts now?

look for example at Australia, new zealand and Iceland

[link to img9.imageshack.us]

where are they? you can see that Australia has ploughed into Asia and has pushed up immense mountain ranges, new zealand is nowhere to be seen, and Iceland has been pulled south, and is a much smaller island.

where are we seeing the most activity at the moment? north of australia, new zeland and iceland?

btw, look at Louisiana on that map.

wrong, because even that is a finite source

Hmmm....there are some things that can happen a lot quicker than we expect too....in a matter of minutes if the earth so desires...

I can definitely understand new Zealand Disappearing when you consider its positon propped right on the the edge of the plate boundaries...bit precarious to say the least!
