What natural disasters may be caused by Tonga volcano eruption?

Tonga, located in the South Pacific Ocean, experienced violent volcanic eruptions on June 5438+1October 14 and June 5438+05. 15, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology observed a tsunami wave with a height of1.2m in Tonga. The eruption of Tonga volcano attracted geologists' attention, and the combination of volcano and tsunami swept half the world. 199 1 year, the eruption of Mount Pinatubo caused the global temperature to drop by 0.5 degrees. The eruption capacity of this submarine volcano is equivalent to 1000 Hiroshima atomic bomb, so the eruption of Tangjia volcano will also cause many unpredictable natural disasters.

65438+1October 16, Tonga's internet and communication networks were all cut off, and it was once "disconnected" and it was impossible to report the details. Japan, the United States, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and other countries issued tsunami warnings. Experts judge that the active period of volcanic awakening and eruption will last for several weeks or years. The eruption of Tonga volcano shocked the international community, and some experts even worried that "Tonga would disappear". According to economic news reports, the intensity of this volcanic eruption has basically reached magnitude 6, comparable to the magnitude 9.3 earthquake, and it is the strongest volcanic eruption in recent times. Under the action of airflow, volcanic ash ejected from the volcano formed a cloud 10 thousand meters high. Pictures taken by synchronous satellites 36,000 kilometers away are clearly visible.

The eruption of Tonga volcano has aroused great concern all over the world, and the tsunami caused by Tonga volcano may have different degrees of impact on many countries. Needless to say, Tonga, the disaster center, even New Zealand, 2300 kilometers away, heard the explosion caused by volcanic eruption. In California, 4000 kilometers away, many houses were submerged by seawater, and many coastlines appeared huge waves more than 2 meters high. Even in Japan, 8000 kilometers away, 16 issued a tsunami warning, and tsunamis came again and again. The release may cause 230,000 people in 8 counties in Japan to be affected.

Now people have understood the probability of natural disasters caused by volcanic eruptions and found ways to prevent some natural disasters. However, in the face of natural disasters, technology is still very small. Faced with the threat of natural disasters caused by volcanic eruption, insignificant human beings can only warn, and the earth has its own laws. Meteorological and geological activities emerge one after another; Humans are powerless to resist natural disasters. Large-scale volcanic activity after volcanic eruption, especially thick volcanic ash, will bring serious problems to traffic, energy and people's lives.

Tambora volcano in Indonesia has no summer in one year 18 16, and the summer temperature in Britain has dropped by 3 degrees. What terrible consequences will happen in 2022 under the influence of Tonga volcano eruption? Scientists predict. In the current global warming environment, the carbon dioxide brought by volcanic eruption will definitely make environmental problems worse, and the change of temperature will trigger a series of chain reactions. The eruption of Tonga volcano will definitely lead to many natural disasters, and extreme weather may come!
