Tonga volcano eruption woke up people, and more and more people began to pay attention to volcanic eruptions, including some of the volcanoes that have been dormant for many years, such as Yellowstone volcano, Mount Fuji volcano, and Changing Mountain. The Yellowstone volcano is located in Yellowstone Park in the United States, Mount Fuji is located in Japan, and in China, it is the Changsha Chianti.

The Changing Mountain is located in the southeast of the Jo Ba District, Erhard Bathe Town, Anti County, Jilin Province, and is a famous tourist attraction, every year a large number of tourists go to the Changing Mountain scenic spot to enjoy the beauty, but many people do not know that the Changing Mountain is a dormant volcano for hundreds of years, the last eruption was in the 18th century.

This is not alarmist, because volcanic eruptions can happen, such as the Yellowstone volcano in general, according to scientists, the Yellowstone volcano erupted once hundreds of thousands of years ago, bringing a fatal blow to the Earth's creatures. And Changing Mountain is also a dormant volcano, naturally, there is the possibility of an eruption.

300 years ago, Changing Mountain erupted once, and then Changing Mountain became a restricted area for humans, the surrounding areas were blocked until later someone broke in and found that there was no longer a terrible danger inside before the blockade was lifted, and gradually began to liven up, the development of tourism, people gradually forgot about this matter.

There is a cycle of volcanic eruptions, but there are volcanoes that do not have a fixed eruption cycle, each time it comes, not to speak of woo-DE. For example, the first two eruptions of Changing Mountain were separated by just 58 years, in 1702 and 1644, and before that Changing erupted in 1597, 47 years after 1644, which seems like an eruption in about 50 years. But before that, that is, the 1201 Changsha eruption from 1597 but a full interval of more than 360 years.

This shows that for the eruption of Changsha, we can have an accurate time, relying on existing technology, only to monitor the Changsha, hoping to leave more preparation time before it erupts.

Eruption time of Changsha?

To predict when Changsha is ready to erupt, scientists built a volcano monitoring site near Changsha to monitor the mountain 24 hours a day and keep track of its movements so that they can be the first to start control and save more people's lives.

Since then, Changbaishan has been very calm until 2002, when an anomaly appeared in Changbaishan. Scientists detected that Changbaishan was very active, with large fluctuations in data, and many people felt that Changbaishan was about to erupt.

At that time, the Changbaishan Tahitian began to emerge from the hot air, and the surrounding area also detected several small earthquakes, all signs indicate that the Changbaishan may erupt at any time, but just when people are worried, the Changbaishan became unusually calm, back to the previous state.

Although the Changbaishan returned to calm, scientists in the monitoring found that the Changbaishan elevation rose 3 mm, perhaps most people feel that 3 mm is a little insignificant, but scientists are not a little trivial. Even 1 mm is fatal for a dormant volcano.

This also indicates that there are fluctuations in the internal capacity of Changbai Mountain, magma is beginning to gather and may awaken at any time, and once it erupts, the consequences are unimaginable.

Scientists have predicted the eruption time of Changbai Mountain, saying that the probability of eruption of Changbai Mountain in 2032 will reach 99%. If this is the case, then the eruption of Changbaishan is inevitable.

Volcanic eruptions bring serious harm, take this eruption of the volcano in Tonga, not only appeared to be injured but also triggered a tsunami and other disasters, which in turn caused greater losses.

And some scholars say that the consequences of the eruption of Changbai Mountain are more serious than the eruption of Mount Fuji.

The eruption of volcanoes in Tonga undoubtedly aggravated people's worries about volcanic eruptions, especially dormant volcanoes located in the territory, but whether humans can predict the exact time of the eruption? I think it is still difficult, so the above scientists' prediction time is still open to question.

However, it is clear that within a short period, Changbai Mountain will not erupt, so there is no need to worry too much.

As we all know, modern technology is not enough to prevent natural disasters, let alone resist them. If a terrible disaster breaks out in many places at the same time in the future, what should mankind do? At this stage, what can we do to improve our own ability to survive?
