What would happen if Yellowstone National Park erupted?
January 21st, 2010 . by AB KinneyI am doing a class project and i need to know what would happen if yellowstone national park erupted.
Nothing good.
There are two parts to the question. What would the impact be to the environment and what would it be to the human population?
Take a look at the Mount St. Helens eruption in 1980. About 72 people died in the actual event so the human toll was relatively small. The changes to the landscape were dramatic. What was once a pristine, snow-covered mountain in a forest was now a smoking caldera surrounded by ash fields and dead trees. Since that time it’s been amazing to watch how the flora and fauna have begun to recover and regrow in the area.
The effects of an eruption in Yellowstone would depend on the size. There is a lot of evidence that a super-volcano exists there. If the dome on top of that magma source were to collapse it would effectively mean the end of the world, at least our part in it. The amount of ash released would block out the sun around the world for months if not years ruining global crops and plunging humanity into a food crisis that would wipe out most of us. Also, the temperature would be lowered leading to longer and harsher winters making it impossible to raise livestock or grow anything in what little sun was left. Sorry to be a downer.
If a more ‘normal’ volcano went off. The effects would be more local and probably look very much like Mount St. Helens did.
Is old faithful the most frequently erupting geyser in the world?
January 21st, 2010 . by AB Kinneyi know that it isn’t the biggest so i was just wondering if that was why it was so famous.
so then it isn’t the most frequent? oh wait i get it so there are much smaller geysers that go off much more frequently but they are really small. i really didn’t put that one together. thanks for your help!
It is famous because it is large enough to be impressive and it is regular enough that you can count on seeing it if you can stay for 2 hours or maybe less depending on when the last one was.
Grand Teton National Park VS Glacier National Park?
January 21st, 2010 . by AB KinneyMe and my family are thinking about driving from boise to yellowstone national park. we wanted to see another national park but we couldn’t decide between the two. glacier national park is a long journey and we have a baby. is it worth the drive and which is a better experience?
thanks for the help
I would definitely do Grand Teton. Glaciers the nicer park and theres more to do there but it’s about 8-9 hours away from Yellowstone. GT is right there. If youre going to do Glacier you should wait until you can make the trip just for that, otherwise you might have to rush through and miss something. GT can be done in a day, Glacier should take at least 3.
