@WFS,World Fossil Society,Riffin T Sajeev,Russel T Sajeev Volcanic eruptions are the most spectacular expression of the processes acting in the interior of any active planet. Effusive eruptions consist of a gentle and steady flow of lava on the surface, while explosive eruptions are violent phenomena that can eject hot materials up to several kilometres into […]

Riffin WFS News:Falling sea level caused volcanoes to overflow
July 7th, 2017 Riffin @WFS,World Fossil Society,Riffin T Sajeev,Russel T Sajeev Climate evolution shows some regularities, which can be traced throughout long periods of earth’s history. One of them is that the global average temperature and the carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere usually go hand-in-hand. To put it simple: If the temperatures decline, the CO2values also decrease and […]

July 3rd, 2017 Riffin @WFS,World Fossil Society,Riffin T Sajeev,Russel T sajeev A team of researchers from the University of Cambridge have developed a new way of measuring the pressure inside volcanoes, and found that it can be a reliable indicator of future eruptions. Using a technique called ‘seismic noise interferometry’ combined with geophysical measurements, the researchers measured the energy […]

March 7th, 2014 Riffin The Earth’s outer layer is made up of a series of moving, interacting plates whose motion at the surface generates earthquakes, creates volcanoes and builds mountains. Geoscientists have long sought to understand the plates’ fundamental properties and the mechanisms that cause them to move and drift, and the questions have become the subjects of lively […]
