Nyamuragira volcano erupts
Loading...
Uploaded by gorillacd on Nov 6, 2011
A spectacular fire show started last night when Nyamuragira volcano (also known as Nyamulagira) began an eruption that happens about every two years. The eruption could be seen clearly from park headquarters - probably the best view you could ask for. It appears that the eruption is not happening on the volcano itself, but on the side and lower to the ground. We'll fill you in on details once we have them.
This is NOT the volcano that tourists hike to see the lava lake, but a far more active volcano just to the north. Most of the lava flows north into an area where no one lives, so it shouldn't bring harm to people or wildlife as the flow is moving slowly.
Eruptions like this one can go on for days, weeks, or even months.

My phone says it's Night Fight by Tan Dun.
Get Soundhound or Shazam for your phone and never again wonder that music you're hearing.

According to my boardum, A red head's hair heats up the rock, then melts it and the lava spews out of the volcanoes

A new spreading center developing under Africa along the East African Rift Zone. When the continental crust stretches beyond its limits, tension cracks begin to appear on the Earth's surface. Magma rises and squeezes through the widening cracks, sometimes to erupt and form volcanoes. The rising magma, whether or not it erupts, puts more pressure on the crust to produce additional fractures and, ultimately, the rift zone. East Africa may be the site of the Earth's next major ocean.

As with earthquakes, volcanic activity is linked to plate-tectonic processes. Most of the world's active above-sea volcanoes are located near convergent plate boundaries where subduction is occurring, - producing about three quarters of all lava erupted on Earth -- takes place unseen beneath the ocean, mostly along the oceanic spreading centers, The actively splitting African Plate and the Arabian Plate meet in what geologists call a triple junction
