Axial Seamount: America’s Deadly Undersea Volcano Is Waking Up!

Описание: Axial Seamount: America’s Deadly Undersea Volcano Is Waking Up!
Beneath the cold, dark expanse of the Pacific Ocean, miles off the coast of Oregon, a colossal geological time bomb is quietly ticking. Axial Seamount, the most active underwater volcano in the Northeast Pacific, lies hidden, silently preparing for its next dramatic outburst. Scientists have recently detected alarming signs: the seafloor has swelled by nearly 10 feet since its last eruption, and an astonishing swarm of over 1,000 earthquakes per day now ripples through the volcanic edifice. Could the next eruption be imminent? And What Will Happen When Axial Seamount Finally Erupts?
