Lovely informative captions with NO intrusive music or hysteria. Many thanks XXXXX
Excellent footage with unobstructed views and natural sounds of the eruption site with its massive lava flow. ❤ Thank You for sharing. Such great work is being carried out by the Construction Team who work relentlessly in very difficult circumstances to save areas at risk on their beautiful island. ❤ Stay safe! ❤ Iceland has a brilliant team of scientific experts closely monitoring the situation. Our prayers are with you all. 🙏🌋🇮🇸❣💐
My prayers are for those working in the heat of the lava field to build the barriers and repair the roads. Thank you brave men.
🙏 ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Beautiful footage of the site and the sounds are an added bonus. To the point, no crazy music or hysteria. Thank you for sharing.
Great shots.
Excellent views! Thanks so much.
great informational video thanks
That's just crazy, building a road on lava that's just a few days old.
Your girlfriend lives on the other side. Wouldn't you use stilts and stilt walk over? LOL
@@MikeGreenwood51 Nope. I remember the movie "Volcano" and the guy carrying someone out of the subway car and jumping in lava (if I remember correctly. I haven't watched it in years). That was a painful death, even though the movie was ridiculously inaccurate.
I think a key here is they are saying the lack of quakes before this eruprtion and during the massive first 72 minutes where HUGE amounts poured from the vents, indicates the magma tunnel and chambers below are directly feeding these vents with NO blockage. The fact that Uplift is occurring again around Blue Lagoon despite all this lava is an indication magma is flowing into the system faster than is pumping out, so there is a constant source. And the limiting factor on this is not pressure below the earth or the chamber but if or when the channel allowing this unobstructed flow cuts off. Some have optimistically predicted March 31st by charting slight decreases in the flow (which could be measurement errors). Other have suggested May 31st with some models. My own view is the Uplift indicates the chance for increased flow, and that uplift will keep pressure on the existing channel to keep it clear, so unless through random change the ground shifts due to other quakes due to the chamber filling, causing a blockage .. this will go on a long long time.
Great update, I waited for this. It's fierce, hope the safety measures bravely in effect work. Just be safe. Thank you 💖
Even if the current eruption stops, this is bad. A lava channel has been establshed. The lava in it will drain down into the lower lands and spread out. If the cycle continues, the uplift will resume and in 4-6 weeks we can expact another high-flow eruption. Except, this time, there is now an established conduit headed towards Grindavik. Think flash-flood in a dry creek bed, except with lava now moving at high speed, which means high inertia, heading straight towards berms constructed off compacted, but still loose, rock. I don't see this as hysteria, but as an accurate assessment of how things stand, either right now or a month or two from now. Twenty five years ago, when I first stood on the rim of St Helens and looked down and out to the North, I accepted that the earth was in charge and that we were only along for the ride.
Mother Earth not even out of first gear my friends ! Good luck 😊❤
I’m praying for the people there.
I use to think I wanted to live in Iceland because it is so isolated but I have changed my mind about that.
I was wondering if lava could be controlled by having seawater pumped in areas where you want it to cool off and create it's own wall redirecting it where you want.
Not sure but I think that when lava hits (sea)water, it causes explosions and a chemical reaction that produces toxic gasses. Seem to remember this from a documentary about the eruption of Mt Kilauea on Hawaii
Yep, seawater and lava do not make nice friends. As just one example: 1000 degree Celsius molten rock hitting water makes the rock cool rapidly and explode, as well as condensed the sulphuric gas into sulphuric acid, among many other harmful chemicals that can cause asphyxiation, burned skin, eyes, nose, etc. not a great idea.
The book "The Control of Nature" by John McPhee documents how Iceland tried this in the 1960s with limited results. McPhee concluded that the threatened village was spared by the lava mostly going away rather than toward the inhabited area. Thus it will be here as well - if a major lava flow heads rapidly south, these barriers will not hold.
Lava has a thermal capacity of 0.2, so it takes 2.5 cubic meters (725 gallons) of sea water at 0 degrees C to completely cool 1 cubic meter of lava at 1200 degrees C. If we only cool half way (600) to solidify it, then that is roughly 360 gallons. Lava is coming out at 14 cubic meters per second, so to cool the lava front along the berm to 600 degrees C to solidify it, assuming it is all directed there, would be 14 x 360 or roughly 5000 gallons, per second. In this case, the berm top is around 20 meters above sea level, so that water needs to be pumped both 2KM from the harbor, and up a 20M height gradient. I like to attach numbers to ideas just to keep it in perspective. So, in comparison, a fire truck, albeit through a high pressure and resistance hose, pumps out around 2000 gallons, per minute. I am not sure what a commercial dredging ship, in the harbor and outputing through, say, 2 ft diameter welded steel tube, could push up to the berm a couple of KM away. You'd need to go big. It works best if one is right next to the water, like the last time they tried it.
My solution, posted somewhere several months ago, was a deep trench and a berm that ran from the SE corner of Hagerfell down to that small bay east of the small penninsula. Get the lava down to the sea ASAP and forever. Building the berms as they did perpendicular to the expected flow front will keep the lava there, forever. Berms can be overtopped, eroded, and pushed out of the way, whereas a trench is solid and would have generated a "self-fulfilling" barrier against future eriptions. Sadly, they are past the point where that is an option. Lava is like gangrene. You need to be aggressive and cut it off right now. The good news is that a half dozen farms east of town along the coast will be spared. The bad news, I highly suspect, is that the entire town will be lost.
Toxic gases dissipate in a day. The lava flows are there forever. Playing the short game was never an option here.
Why.its a volcanic island
First people want it to start, now they want it to end, so fickle. Eruptions do not work on the clock. This one seems to be bringing up material with few if any detours from the source which would indicate that the tube will need to go solid before it stops. I would like to watch it reach the ocean but that mining pit seems to be in the way.
At what point will the Icelandic people call it quits?
They don't. they're not smart enough.. 😆😆😆
@@DanFilkins-s5pYou've lead me to believe that.
@@DanFilkins-s5pThey are smarter than you will ever be.
Maybe the critics should look to the hazards in their own backyard.
@@nolongerlistless We may be critics, we aren't stupid people to know what defeat is. People build their house on top of hills only to watch it slide down the hill. Or how about living on top of an earthquake fault, and knowing it, but you stay and take your chances. Anyone who has experienced it doesn't do it a second time.
God bless people of Iceland 🇮🇸
14.5 cubic meters per second translates to 1000 acre-feet per day. This gives an idea as to how big the eruption is still.
Yes great views..We've Been givin so much different info through the weeks..
Lovely place.
But the whole island is a volcano.
Nature is its own time
All this scientific info
Is full of prunes.
Blessings to all
Please move once and for all
Quit playing games with mother nature !!!
defence walls for what so the entirety of the flow will push over them eventuality its like building a dam out of ice bound to fail spectacularly in the end town is dead
It is very interesting. Non-seismic. Is it possible that this tourist friendly volcano may never cease?
The workers, are they wearing respiratory protection. That dust is like breathing in glass shards and since its still cooling, gas emissions.
Why don't use water with pump bombs the lava turn rock's quickly help too using tractor and truck is more expensive
Is there a reason why other countries haven't donated or loaned big earth moving equipment to assist Iceland?
They seem to be all alone. There should be an army of trucks filing back and forth.😢
Iceland is not land of ice, it is land of lava.
nature is beautiful. let it happen. humans living everywhere.. what do you expect?
Wow looks so nice😍.Why it needs to stop?
The government must get a slice of Blue Lagoon profits. There was 0 warning before this eruption. Hundreds of Blue Lagoon tourists had to run away from this large volcanic outburst.
I'm part of a group that is going to Iceland (planned a long time ago) April 30th to May 7th. Are there any places where the general public can view the eruption out of the fissure, if it is still erupting at that time?
It is Iceland making more of itself. This is how it got here, continual magma over 8 million years. Iceland IS lava! People choose to live there, I lived there myself for five years and I love Iceland. But let’s not get sappy about tragedy here - Iceland it 100% cooled lava. The whole island. Icelanders all know this. It’s where they live! No lava, no Iceland. Period. So yes be safe, but be smart, too.
will we see Iceland turning to building their towns as "opidums" (on earth rise), to be most of the time out of reach from lava flow? (of course, but in case of an eruption right under a town...
The intensity of the low frequency rumble would be most disconcerting for those unused to such a concussion.
Perspective is poorly represented. Perhaps a map of Iceland with the area highlighted would inform viewers better.
One thing with your terminology they're not craters they're cones. craters go down cones go up.
It's a translation thing. This text information is garnered from the Iceland Met Office daily report, and that's just the terminology the page translator gives.
The crater is in thé cône
@@ariane3407 do we need to slow this down for you ma'am! They are literally Polar Opposites craters cannot be cones
Geology live ... boiling rock!
did the lave go into the ocean yet ?
Ottimo lavoro,ma sembra una lotta impari dove la natura, vincerà ,non sapendo dove ci sarà una nuova esplosione lavica auguri
BBQ ANYONE?
Why can't you's explain what is going on with words, I watch this woman on the pulse silk and she does a much better job explaining things, come on I know you's can do it
She doesn't have a clue, what she's talking about.
@@Dreuft and these people don't know how to give info either. All they do is type, why don't they talk once
@@jefree6960 Not saying this channel is better. Just trust reliable sources like the met office or shawn
You are the best whitout money grabbing
schaut nicht so gut aus im moment
