It is beleived that Yellowstone has the capability to do so.
that is imposible somthing that small can not destroy somthing like the U.S.ANS #2: It could do some serious damage if it erupted again as a super volcano as it has done before. The US government may or may not survive it because of the economic collapse.
The recent eruption of the Fagradalsfjall volcano in Iceland is not directly impacting us today, as it is a relatively small eruption in a remote area. However, volcanic activity in Iceland can potentially lead to airline disruptions due to ash clouds that may form in the future.
it coluld be the animals, when they escape and leave the area.
Nature can challenge us by natural disasters like tornadoes, earthquake, hurricane, flood, volcano eruption etc....
There is a volcano underneath Yellow Stone National Park, the home of the geyser Old Faithful. Scientists believe that if it erupted it would be 1,000 times the size of Mt. St. Helena. It would not only destroy much of the US but has the power to cause havoc worldwide.
There are 169 active volcanoes in the US. -Don't be scared, be prepared! The USGS continuously monitors many of them with webcams. The one at Kilauea is pretty neat! Please access the related link below for more information:
Vulcanian is not a kind of volcano. It is a kind of volcanic eruption. The term Vulcanian comes from Vulcano, a volcanic island off the cost of Italy prone to this kind of eruption. This island also gives us the word volcano. This island in turn gets its name from Vulcan, the Roman god of fire and metalworking who was believed to have is forge within the island of Vulcano.
The volcano of 1350BC erupted and destroyed the entire park. It caused a year long winter over most of North America from shore to shore, and even in Europe. The volcano at Yellowstone WILL erupt again; it's not an if but a when. When it blows, scientists estimate that it will destroy most of the western half of the US and probably North America and cause major weather changes across the globe.
Currently that title goes to Kilauea in Hawaii, which has been erupting almost continuously since 1983. The last volcano to initiate an eruption was Mount Pavlof on the Alaska Peninsula, which produced a small eruption in June 2014.
One famous volcano in the United States is Mount St. Helens in Washington State. It is known for its massive eruption in 1980 which caused widespread destruction. Another notable volcano is Mauna Loa in Hawaii, which is one of the largest active volcanoes in the world.
It is called a caldera. It is a cauldron-like volcanic feature usually formed by the collapse of land following a volcanic eruption, such as the one at Yellowstone National Park in the US. They are sometimes confused with volcanic craters.(wikipedia). Hope that helped :-D
The US Kilauea volcano was created by the process of hot-spot volcanism, where a mantle plume of magma rises through the Earth's crust to create a volcanic hotspot. This process has led to the continuous eruption and growth of the Kilauea volcano over thousands of years.
