When well yellow stone erupt?
Scientists do not know exactly when Yellowstone will erupt. Most likely in a few million years or so (estimate).
Why did the Yellowstone super volcano erupt in your lifetime?
It didn't. The Yellowstone volcano last erupted about 70,000 years ago. The last super eruption was about 640,000 years ago.
Did the Yellowstone volcano erupt in 1-12-2009?
No. The last eruption of the Yellowstone volcano was about 70,000 years ago. Its last super eruption was 640,000 years ago.
When did Yellowstone erupt last?
Yellowstone's last magma eruption was about 70,000 years ago. The last super eruption was approximately 640,000 years ago.
When is the super volcano underneath Yellowstone likely to erupt?
No one can answer this exactly. Since the last violent eruption was about 150,000 years ago and the last lava flow was about 70,000 years ago. I think, and I am not an expert by any means, it should erupt in the next 10,000 years give or take 10,000 years. So it could erupt tomorrow or in 20,000 years but that is a very general estimate.
Did the Yellowstone Volcano erupt?
Yes. It erupted 3 time in the last 2.1 million years
When was the last time the Yellowstone supervolcano erupt?
Yellowstone Caldera last erupting about 700,000 years ago.
When did yellow stone volcano erupt?
Yellowstone Volcano. Some called it Yellowstone Caldera.
Did Yellowstone erupt in the past?
Yes. Yellowstone has produced numerous eruptions including three super eruptions from its present location. The last super eruption was about 640,000 years ago while the last magmatic eruption was about 70,000 years ago.
Will yellowstone erupt more in the future because of plate tectonics?
There is no way of knowing, but it is not very likely. Unlike most volcanoes, the Yellowstone volcano is the result of a hot spot rather than a plate boundary. Even if plate tectonics did alter the behavior, the change would take place over the course of millions of years.
How much overdue is the super volcano eruption in Yellowstone national park?
The Yellowstone caldera is not "overdue" for an eruption. You may have heard that the Yellowstone Caldera erupts regularly every 600,000 years and the last major eruption was 640,000 years ago. In reality the caldera does not erupt regularly and as gone as long as 800,000 years without a major eruption.
Is the Yellowstone volcano extinct?
Most scientists believe that Yellowstone is not truly active and that they would be able to detect if the Yellowstone volcano was going to erupt years before it erupted. But there is no way to no for sure if the Yellowstone caldera is truly active (building up for an eruption).
