Volcanic eruptions reshape Arctic ocean floor: Evidence of the volcano came as an unintended bonus from a research plan to investigate why a massive ice sheet, known as the Larsen B, collapsed and broke up several years ago. Scientists hope to understand whether such a collapse is unique or part of a cycle that extends over hundreds of thousands of years. Hmmm? I wonder if this has anything to do with the ice sheets breaking off and falling into the ocean? I researched and found this: From: www.antarticconnection.com Is it global warming or just a natural occurence? Please comment. Its something to think about! PARIS (AFP) – Recent massive volcanoes have risen from the ocean floor deep under the Arctic ice cap, spewing plumes of fragmented magma into the sea, scientists who filmed the aftermath reported Wednesday. The eruptions — as big as the one that buried Pompei — took place in 1999 along the Gakkel Ridge, an underwater mountain chain snaking 1800 kilometres (1100 miles) from the northern tip of Greenland to Siberia. Scientists suspected even at the time that a simultaneous series of earthquakes were linked to these volcanic spasms. But when a team led of scientists led by Robert Sohn of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts finally got a first-ever glimpse of the ocean floor 4000 meters (13000 feet) beneath the Arctic pack ice, they were astonished. What they saw was unmistakable evidence of …

When most people think of Big Island volcano tours, they think of seeing molten lava flowing out of the ground. While it’s true that you can see such a sight by taking these tours, there’s more to touring the Big Island’s volcanoes than you may think. Here’s a brief overview of just a few of the special highlights you can enjoy while taking these exciting adventure tours.

But, wait. Isn’t Mount Everest the tallest mountain?
Actually, no.
While Mount Everest does hold the record for the tallest mass above sea level, it’s actually two of the Big Island’s massive volcanoes which steal Mount Everest’s fame. Mauna Loa holds the title of the world’s largest mountain and volcano, with a height from base to summit of over 56,000 ft! It is over 60 miles long and 30 miles wide and takes up the large majority of the Big Island of Hawaii.
So, what about the world’s tallest mountain? Didn’t you say that I could see that on a Big Island volcano tour too?
Right you are!
The record for the world’s tallest mountain goes to Mauna Loa’s next door neighbor, Mauna Kea. While Mauna Kea rises a scant 136ft higher than Mauna Loa, it happens to be the only place in Hawaii where skiing is possible during the winter months.
Can I see active lava flows on Big Island volcano tours too?
Of course you can, but for that you’ll have to traverse over to the eastern edge of the Big Island and hop into the Volcano National Park. This is a worthy expedition as the park offers incredible educational opportunities to help you understand what you are seeing.
The volcano you’ll be looking at is called Kilauea, and it is considered one of the world’s most active volcanoes, having been in continuous eruption since January of 1983!
What else can I do on Big Island volcano tours?
Depending on what your style is, you can hike, camp or take a personal helicopter over the behemoths to get a better look at them. You can hop on a shuttle to catch sunrise from the top (an AMAZING experience!) or you can traverse the slopes looking for the numerous rare bird and plant species which exist only in this special ecosystem.
Truly, Big Island volcano tours are some of the most phenomenal ways to spend your time while visiting the Hawaii Islands. Just remember to bring your coat – you’d be surprised how cold it is when you get to the top of the tallest mountain in the world!
