Antarctica's Largest Explosive Volcanic Eruption

Antarctica has more than a dozen volcanoes which are considered to be active and potentially active, including three volcanoes which are erupting right now. Thus, which of these volcanoes produced the largest known explosive volcanic eruption on the continent? This video will answer this question, as well as discuss Mount Erebus. #shorts #short #volcano #antarctica #geology

As a penguin living in Antarctica I can confirm that volcanoes are common👍

I love these shorts man. Keep 'em coming.

A topic no one seems to want to comment on is … what potential effects could the erupting volcanoes in Antarctica have on the current local melting ice sheets? Thanks
PS. The same thing is happening in Greenland with glaciers receding exactly where new geothermal pools have been discovered. Coincidence?

That deception island would be a sick bond villains lair

Could you do a video on Mt Sidley?

It has an impressive crater that seems to be a collapse scar.

It'd be cool to learn more about it.

Question, how do we know that eruption occurred at Young Island if we don’t know where the vent is? Genuinely curious

[chirwub]

I'd be curious to learn more about the interaction of plinean/ultra plinean eruptions which occur under thick ice caps during the ice age. would there be examples in alaska of this happening?

[aaronfranklin]

what about Mt Berlin? What about the Pleiades?
what about the executive committee Ranges, and Takahe, and many others?

to be completely honest I didn't know antartica had a volcano I'm shocked 😲

[jacksonkruse]

You should cover mid ocean ridges and the Gakkel Ridge Caldera

I wonder if it's any warmer nearer to the active volcanoes in Antarctica or just as cold. 🌋 🌋 🌋 🌋

Young island...Ah by the way, will you talk about the balleny islands (or maybe I have missed the video) ? I can barely find any info or picture of them, and they are quite blurry on google earth. Such a remote volcanic archipelago...

[kimlarso]

There’d be no land without volcanoes and wherever there are mountains there is water

[garysimon]

Importance of volcanoe activities @ Antarctica are an indicator of world tectonics...
When 12 turns to 50 ?

[maukaman]

Is that a special program that does the 3D rendering on the terrain? Or is this from google earth pro?

[kcc]

I thought there were over 150 volcanoes under the ice?

[thefeatheredfrontiersman]

Do you think there is obcidian anywhere in Antarctica?

At the end of 2019 the Book with Seven Seals mentioned in the Book of Revelation was opened! All people, despite different beliefs, political views and other disagreements, should unite with each other and demand the withdrawal of all military troops from the war zones. This is the first will of God given to us by His messenger through the book. More infos are in my videos.

Wait.. but I thought Humans & carbon is why the ice is melting there… hmm 🤨🤔 #ClimateLieToMakeYouComply

[carsonboardman]

Wow I clicked on this thinking something cool just happened smh…
