How Far Volcanologists Go To Test Lava

How Far Volcanologists Go To Test Lava | Science Skills

When volcanologists need to figure out things like how fast a lava flow moves, why adding water can cause an explosion, or even how volcanoes work on other planets, sampling lava is the key. But a volcano isn't the only place you can get some. The team behind the Syracuse University Lava Project makes it in-house on a bigger scale than any other program like it. So, how do lab and field work come together? On this episode of Science Skills, producer Abby Tang goes to work at the Lava Project and sits down with field-expert Ben Edwards to understand the tools of the trade from hard to almost impossible.

as a geologist, I can assure you, volcanologists are the funky portion of us. these guys are really brave on studying volcanoes. many of them lost their lives in the field. but they got to see some of the coolest stuff in their lives.

@@stauffap caught in the pyroclastic flow, ash flow or just simply get blown into ash during a rhyolitic type eruption. The ash are several hundred degree hot. you get cooked really well. There are quite a lot of stories. Katia and Maurice Krafft a famous couple volcanologists. were killed while filming Mt. Unzen by the clast flow. Their colleague, friend David Johnston another famous geologist was killed in the St. Helen eruption. If I remembered correctly, David Johnston wasnt suppose to be there at St. Helen that day. he did some work for someone else. cant remember if it was suppose to be Maurice Krafft. but later this guy dead as well. Its like god claimed you anyway. fyi, pyroclastic flow can go somewhere like 50miles per hr or more. Its super dead if you get caught in.

-Just to avoid confusion, space satellites are not wrapped in gold. That is polyester and aluminum, known as a "Mylar blanket." The *color* helps accomplish the reflection of infrared light, so using actual gold is not necessary. Only when you want to reflect nearly 100% infrared would one use actual gold, so that's why the primary mirror of the James Webb Space Telescope is coated in actual gold.

Yeah, KZfaq has figured out there's an active volcano right now in Spain and is recommending this to me now.

Measuring temperature with sound? Not very scientific sir.

@mario5731 2 жыл бұрын

Still better than Fahrenheit

@gemsandlasers269 2 жыл бұрын

Sound waves travel at different speeds through the same material but at different temperatures. So it is actually perfectly scientific.

2:41 giving the temperature in C° or K° would have been nice. Linke 95% of the worlds population uses C°.

Humans trying to predict and tame nature is funny

@MariaMartinez-researcher 2 жыл бұрын

Meteorology has achieved a notable degree of accuracy in predicting weather; we all hope volcanology and geology could do it too. When you live in the vicinity of a volcano, or in a place prone to earthquakes, or both (Chilean here), with their entourage of tsunamis, you don't laugh at science efforts, but pray they get on it faster. Regarding "taming" nature, agriculture, husbandry, engineering, urbanism, are doing their part. When you go to the kitchen, open a faucet, and water comes from it, just think of all the distance that water traveled before ending in your morning coffee. Also, climate change proves we can affect nature much more than we ever imagined. Please vote for authorities that be aware of the effort needed to not making that kind of taming worse than what it is now. God put the Man in charge of the Garden of Eden. We are still in charge of this home of ours.

would have been helpful to a lot of viewers if the temperature in Celsius was also on the screen along with Fahrenheit. Just to be clear, I am too lazy to open google and convert the temperature to Celsius. I guess I will never know that sweet temperature spot of lava. Still loved the video

Along with instant cooling if it is also compressed it will be a worth of efforts. Likewise compressed clay & baked brick ....compressed lava... Toughness , bearing, compressive....

Lotta people pissed about Fahrenheit being used like they’re suddenly unable to google. Who cares how hot it is anyway it’s fuckin lava, it’s hot. Literally that’s all you need to know who tf gunna remember exactly how hot this one KZfaq video said lava is like. If it’s not important enough to you to look up then shut up about it and watch the video lmfao

Love how HI didn't have triangle at the beginning but the west cost does... XD Also VERY happy to see that they are melting rock not glass like some YT channels are. Saying the glass is "lava".
