Eruptions

New flows at Kilauea

Not to feel left out from all the action going on in Alaska, Kilauea in Hawai’i has a new lava flow issuing from the Thankgiving Eve Breakout (TEB) vent area. It sounds like a fairly small flow and none of the flows have reached the ocean. The TEB was the November 21, 2007 event where activity migrated away from the Pu’u O’o area to a new vent to the east.

    How do volcanologists measure the gas compositions of volcanic eruptions?

    I would answer the question, but the USGS have a great page on just such a question!

    The only criticism I have is that you took the medieval viewpoint of the king and the wealthy and didnt factor in the activities of the elected vote-buying Congress of the United States. They were at LEAST as responsible for the loosening of borrowing requirements as the President and the Fed Chairman. They sold their seats in congress to people who think like medieval peasants who deserve to be given something more than they are already getting. That would be financing for affordable housing, the siren call of gents like Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd. They, along with the machinery that supported them, should have been factored in along with the already covered causes.
