Are there volcanoes in Texas?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- Explore the volcanoes of West Texas with geologist Dr. Don Parker and the University of Texas at Dallas’s Geoscience Studios team and learn about the massive volcanic field that once existed in the Big Bend region.
This video introduces the extinct volcanoes of far West Texas, which were active between 17 and 47 million years ago and have since been eroded so they are no longer spectacular and are easy to overlook if you’re not looking for the evidence that they once existed. The video explains some of the stories that these rocks tell and is aimed at interested non-experts. Comments and questions are always appreciated!

Can you talk about pilot knob here in Austin Texas? I read it’s been uhhh long long time sleeping but could it wake up?
Sure! We just got an agreement on making a video about the geology of Pilot Knob. Probably will release the video in later April or May.
@@UTDGeoscienceStudios awesome ty ty took our drive out there today. So many homes filling up the area sure hope it never comes back to life cause there’s a lot of lives out there. Looking forward to your visit n video thanks again
@@Sonee777 Thank you for your great advice!
@@UTDGeoscienceStudios oh no ty for your future video. I’m sure a lot of us Austinites be interested in watch a informative video about it. I am so ty.
My parents are from Fort Davis, TX, which is the highest town in Tx at about a mile high. Together with Marfa and Alpine form a triangle for these mountains. I have always been fascinated with these mountains since a little child. The town of Ft. Davis sits next to Sleeping Lion mountain, where giant boulders line the mountain face. But hey, the area is even greater. Look to the west of El Paso in NM and find Potrillo volcanic field and cinder cones and craters. And just to the north of White Sands is Malpais-Valley of Fires lava flow which only 5000 years old.
We have a volcano here in austin texas. It is called pilots knobb. It is located on highway 183 southeast of austin. By burleson road. It sears right on lava road.
Yes, Pilot's Knob is part of the ~80 my old Balcones Igneous Province, which can be traced to San Antonio and then west from there
Must be the 1 that releases lava in 911 lone star season 2. Filmed in austin
Oh wow didn’t know that bit of info thanks. How often I rode that road and never knew. Moved north atx now but wow makes me wanna cruise it this weekend 👍👍
Great info. I'm in TX. I didn't know about the volcanoes.
Ha, thanks! S B, interesting ha
No mention of Pilot Knob in South Austin. Last eruption: 79 - 83 million years ago.
Pilot Knob is only one of a series of extinct Mesozoic Era volcanic features.
80 Ma to be more precise. Volcanoes in Central Texas are a different kind. They are submarine volcanoes, and a brief eruption history.
Finally someone is talking about these! I wonder if they are about to wake up.
Nope, these volcanos are long dead. They were caused by a subduction zone that no longer exists.
@@TheMetaSD replaced by the craton am right or wrong?
@@TheMetaSD ah I think the zone was actually replaced with the san andreas
@@itsyaboiradargaming4377 Technically no. Long story short, there used to be a tectonic plate out in the Pacific called the Faralon Plate that was the eastern part of the East Pacific Rise. The North American Plate overtook part of the the East Pacific Rise, and that corresponding portion Faralon plate was completely subducted beneath North American Plate killing all those volcanos. After this, the western half of the East Pacific Rise, known as the Pacific Plate, created a new intersection with the North American plate that formed a series of spreading centers and transform faults, one of which is the San Andreas fault. It's also what is causing Baja to rift apart from the rest of Mexico.
@@TheMetaSD ok but how cole there have been reports if earth quakes in the area lately
OUTSTANDING!
Four ancient volcanoes in Maine plus an additional super volcano
NC has morrow mountain and kings mountain as ancient volcanoes and the charlotte motor speedway was a landfill for charlotte and is rumoured to be a caldera
I didn't know texas has volcanoes
I’m surprised there was no mention of Pilot Knob or any of the other extinct volcanoes in central Texas.
Ikr? I wanna know could it wake up? I’m pretty close to it 😳
It happened just like you say, only a whole lot faster. It's called the Nemesis Effect. Brown stars are an area of interest.
Way to go, Don!
Wow! I learn something new every time I watch geology video. Thanks for posting this!
Thank you!!
Hello Dr. Parker! (from Baylor geology graduate Jason Beall)
Nice presentation. I subscribed. Keep up the good work. There is the remnant of an ancient volcano in the Sacramento Valley now called The Sutter Buttes. The various “buttes” are the remains of the walls of the now extinct volcano. They are prominent on the skyline looking north from Sacramento. They have been referred to as the smallest mountain range in the world. I’m just curious to know about it’s origin as it sits all by itself in the middle of the Sacramento Valley.
Thanks for the sub and info! Don MacKay. We will take a look at these interesting features and see if we can make something about it. Appreciate it.
My daughter found a lava Rock in Laredo Texas at a local park. Made me think of that one time there was volcanos here.
I used to live in El Paso and never thought about volcanoes. Interesting...
Remember as kid in 80s I found rocks looked like volcano rocks
Love the fancy new intro
Is it possible those volcanos in west Texas (actually Southwest Texas) actually occurred further east and are located there now due to the South easterly drift of the North American continent? Similar to what they think happened in the northwest part of the U.S. from Yellowstone? I live about 15 miles NW of San Antonio in the hill country and there are all kinds of rocks that surely have a volcanic history.
Thank you for a great informative video. Are these eruptions connected to the volcanoes in southeastern Arizona east of Bisbee, Az.. on my bucket list of places to visit. Texas is not pancake flat!😀😀
Not directly relate
i was hoping y’all could make one issue hot boiling Magma !
Geology Rocks!
I like green beans
@@QALXB Hot molten magma. Not to mention ash & pumice. Oh, that highly vesicular pumice. Ever heard of a pumice raft? ruclips.net/video/fE85OIY3VzI/видео.html They exist.
@@this_boy-gent_is_a_roy-den2660 how can I acquire such massive pp and brain
@@QALXB Eat spinach with your green beans and Flintstone vitamins everyday.
Castle peak and church peak near Abilene kinda look like lil volcanos
What about the Solitario Non Crater? It looks like a huge caldera.
During 15 years or so of flying cargo in and out of El Paso, I'm sure I saw quite a few distinct cinder cones in the vicinity of the city of El Paso, both to the east, IN Texas, and within 25 or so miles
west of El Paso, in the state of New Mexico
Does white river and blanco canyon have volcanoes?
You forgot Austin area.
Does Texas have any comet or asteroid impact craters ?
What's the feature at the NW of the blue highlight at 3:50?
Thanks! The area of remains of the ancient volcanism
@@UTDGeoscienceStudios Thanks for the reply. Is it separate from the caldera? It looks like its own feature.
@@af4237 Oh yeah, ha, good question! It is actually the eroded caldera (remain of the caldera). The caldera was originally about round but after years it was eroded into a more irregular shape from the map view, which is the blue highlight shape.
Chisos Mountains from my field camp days.
Think there is a neighborhood:built upon that possibly dormant volcano: in tx.

I just came here to find the gold 😁
ha!
Wouldn’t be surprised Texas had volcanoes after all Texas is a bad to the bone state plus just found out from an ep of 911 lone star where a volcano though to be Extinct but it woke up and was on the war path in the form of lava and heat! And Seismic quakes
What about the Yellowstone volcano??? Is that still a major threat???
There is no Yellowstone volcano in Texas.
@@whiteknightcat He’s talking about Wyoming?
Can be a real threat once it erupts, but there is no recent data for the potential of an eruption of Yellowstone Volcano.
Is there someone, I could contact regarding Geology information??? As a hobby, I enjoy taking pictures and video of various Geological features surrounding the Las Vegas, NV area. If so, I would make contact through e-mails and Facebook videos. Thanks for any help.....
Hey, Andrew, thanks for the comment! You can send your pics and videos to us at nxw121030@utdallas.edu. Feel free to contact us!
Hey Andrew, how did this video get your attention? RUclips recmmended you about this video
@@UTDGeoscienceStudios Thanks for your reply. I'm always searching for Geology videos and info. I'm a beginner hobbyist, pickup truck and photography type person. Haha ...... I'm from Texas, now living in Las Vegas, NV.
@@UTDGeoscienceStudios Thank you. There is much in the surrounding Las Vegas area to explore and photograph/video. In addition, collecting rock specimens and creating a geologic story from such is so much fun. Feel free to check out my pics and videos on my Facebook page.
@@UTDGeoscienceStudios Tried sending some pics to nxw121030@utdallas.edu. However, the nxw ...... address is not recognized. Is there another e-mail address I could use?? Thanks
Yeah most of Texas is flat no mountains but going to New Mexico there is
I live in Fort Worth Texas
Yes way out West Texas, but there extinct. Can still see signs of them. There still some lava flows can see as well. How many volcanoes in Texas ? idk. i don't have a helicopter to check every thing out. i counted 2 and 1 maybe
Do you know there are a lot of active volcanos in Tokyo?
In Japan ha
PLS many of them are 😭✋🏻
Funny how this popped up after a 5.4 earthquake
we found a rhyolite conduit here in one of our national parks, called Itatiaia, the oldest in Brazil where we have a mountain refuge, your thesis would apply here, we have large deposits of rhyolite, come and study here I believe I have contributed to the separation from our continent!
nothing grows in it, I believe it releases gas, I did some preliminary tests.
How does this guy teach geology to a bunch of Baptists who believe the Earth is 10,000 years old?
Yeah, it is a challenge and we can only provide the relevant data and evidence and hope they can at least consider about it. Do you have any recommendations? Ha thanks for leaving the message
Alessandra is a cutie!
very nice ! Thank you for this effort ! Alpine and Marfa both have rattlesnake " roundups"
which kill thousands of rattlesnakes every year...so I say no to texas and yes to geology.
Education, which texas is sorely lacking...is another reason to look elsewhere. I won't spend a single dollar ( geology non-withstanding ) in texas...they can take thir anti-women's health stance and shove it where the sund doens't shine. bye..we'll keep wathcing your channel.
How about a video on New Mexico's volcanos? Lots of cool volcanic events there !
