Study: The melting of the ice escapes awakens hundreds of inactive volcanoes Environment and climate

I hope study Recently, climate change has severe consequences as a result of inactive volcanoes, as the ice rivers dissolve in the Antarctic continent and other areas slowly with high temperatures, revealing the hidden volcanoes that explode.

With the high temperatures, the melting of the ice rivers causes an increase in the level of the sea, which in turn affects the environmental systems of salt water in the oceans, and may lead to floods.

The melting of the ice escapes may also lead to an increase in volcanic bangs, according to the study published in the “Inside Climate News” journal, as hundreds of volcanoes are increased under the inactive iceberg in the world, especially in the Antarctica, with the acceleration of the icebergs as a result of climate change.

Evidence reported by the study indicates that “thick ice peaks make blankets for volcanoes and as soon as the weight is removed, the pressure from the magma room will disappear, allowing the explosions to occur.

“When this load (from ice) is similar to the opening of a Coca -Cola bottle, it is under the pressure of the migrant gases in the form of bubbles,” said Brad Singer, a geologist at the American University of Wisconsin who led the research.

In the study, the researchers analyzed 6 volcanoes in Chile to study how the ice plate changes affected over time on its volcanic behavior and increased its activity. The same operations occurred in the Antarctic continent, parts of North America, New Zealand and Russia with ice sheet melting.

According to Pablo Moreno-Heg, the scientist participating in the study, the growing volcanic activity causes negative effects on the climate and the global ecosystem, as the cumulative effect of multiple volcanic eruptions in long-term global warming can contribute to the accumulation of greenhouse gases.

This creates – according to a positive feedback ring, as it stimulates the melting of icebergs the volcanic bangs, which in turn may contribute to increasing Global warming Walloban.

Most studies indicate that the world’s ice rivers melts at a faster pace than ever. About about the past 10 years, the losses of ice rivers have been more than a third of what they were from 2000 to 2011.

The possible consequences of this rapid melting exceed just volcanic bangs. These explosions are released by sulfuric virginity that reflects sunlight into space, according to the study.

This led to cooling events that followed the previous volcanic explosions, and some of them caused great famines, according to the Live Science website, and even one of the studies found that the melting of the polar ice slows down the Earth’s rotation.

The increasing volcanic activity creates a group of long -term climatic reactions, where some volcanoes in the Antarctica can accelerate the melting of the ice from the bottom, while other volcanoes can be so explosive that they send climate change materials to the upper layers of the atmosphere.

It is concerned, especially scientists, according to scientists.

“Several volcanoes were discovered under the ice cover there,” Singer said.

Singer adds that if the volcanic revolutions begin to increase under the ice taking to the thinning, this may lead to sliding the ice cover to the ocean more quickly, which leads to a rise in sea level, and “this is something we do not want to see, but it may be in our future,” as he put it.

Studies indicate that without decisive intervention, the melting will continue, and the amount of ice lost at the end of the century will be dramatically dependent on the extent of humanity continues to raise the temperature of the planet by releasing carbon dioxide and other other Greenhouse gases.
