Environment drawing on Magma

Has been a while since I drew one of these. It's kind of a jumbled mess so I think I'd have some trouble mustering a story for it — if I ever wanted to—, but it would still be manageable in my opinion

"But when a black-faced cloud the world doth threat,
In his dim mist the aspiring mountain hiding,
From earth's dark womb some gentle gust doth get,
Which blows these pitchy vapours from their biding,
Hindering their present fall by this dividing."

Der Klimawandel könnte schlafende Vulkane wecken

Wenn #Gletscher weltweit schmelzen, drohen nicht nur lebenswichtige Wasserreservoire zu versiegen: Wie Forschende berichten, könnte die Eisschmelze zu mehr Vulkanausbrüchen führen – was wiederum den #Klimawandel weiter anheizt.

Das Team der Universität von Wisconsin-Madison, USA, untersuchte in Patagonien, im Süden #Chile's, einen Komplex von sechs Vulkanen. Besonderes Augenmerk legten sie auf den Zusammenhang zwischen Eisbedeckung und vulkanischer Aktivität. Analysen von Eruptivgestein zeigten, dass der Eispanzer während des Maximums der jüngsten Kaltzeit, etwa vor 26.000 bis 18.000 Jahren, vulkanische Aktivität buchstäblich unterdrückt haben musste – während sich in einer Tiefe von zehn bis 15 Kilometern unter der Erdoberfläche kieselsäurereiches #Magma sammelte.

Das rasche Schmelzen des Gletschereises am Ende der Kaltzeit führte dann zu einer Entlastung der Magmakammern. Gase im flüssigen Gestein dehnten sich aus, der steigende Druck trieb das Magma an die Erdoberfläche – und ließ in der Folge die #Vulkane des Komplexes entstehen, darunter den derzeit schlafenden #Vulkan #MochoChoshuenco....

Io’s Missing Magma Ocean

In the late 1970s, scientists conjectured that Io was likely a volcanic world, heated by tidal forces from Jupiter that squeeze it along its elliptical orbit. Only months later, images from Voyager 1’s flyby confirmed the moon’s volcanism. Magnetometer data from Galileo’s later flyby suggested that tidal heating had created a shallow magma ocean that powered the moon’s volcanic activity. But newly analyzed data from Juno’s flyby shows that Io doesn’t have a magma ocean after all.

The new flyby used radio transmission data to measure any little wobbles that Io caused by tugging Juno off its expected course. The team expected a magma ocean to cause plenty of distortions for the spacecraft, but the effect was much slighter than expected. Their conclusion? Io has no magma ocean lurking under its crust. The results don’t preclude a deeper magma ocean, but at what point do you distinguish a magma ocean from a body’s liquid core?

Instead, scientists are now exploring the possibility that Io’s magma shoots up from much smaller pockets of magma rather than one enormous, shared source. (Image credit: NASA/JPL/USGS; research credit: R. Park et al.; see also Quanta)

Non-Newtonian Effects in Magma Flows

As magma approaches the surface, it forces its way through new and existing fractures in the crust, forming dikes. When a volcano finally erupts, the magma’s viscosity is a major factor in just how explosive and dangerous the eruption will be, but a new study shows that what we see from the surface is a poor predictor of how magma actually flows within the dike.

Researchers built their own artificial dike using a clear elastic gelatin, which they injected water and shear-thinning magma-mimics into. By tracking particles in the liquids, they could observe how each liquid followed on its way to the surface. All of the liquids formed similar-looking dikes at a similar speed, but within the dike, the liquids flowed very differently. Water cut a central jet through the gelatin, then showed areas of recirculation along the outer edges. In contrast, the shear-thinning liquids — which are likely more representative of actual magma — showed no recirculation. Instead, they flowed through the dike in a smooth, fan-like shape.

The team cautions that surface-level observations of developing magma dikes provide little information on the flow going on underneath. Instead, their results suggest that volcanologists modeling magma underground should take care to include the magma’s shear-thinning to properly capture the flow. (Image credit: T.
