    The small earthquake that struck Yellowstone National Park on Thursday night was part of a swarm that has been hitting the area since Monday, scientists say.

    The quake was centered near West Yellowstone, but was also felt by people in Gardiner and Bozeman.

    “As of 10 a.m. this morning we had located a total of 235 earthquakes in the area,” said Jamie Farrell, University of Utah research professor of seismology.

    Yellowstone gets about 1,500 to 2,000 earthquakes every year. About half of those come in earthquake swarms — lots of earthquakes in a small area in a short amount of time.

    So this activity is fairly normal, Farrell said.

    Most of the earthquakes in this swarm have been small — only four above magnitude 3. Thursday’s 4.5 magnitude earthquake was the only one reported to the U.S. Geological Survey website, meaning people actually felt it.

    Not only was Thursday’s quake the largest in the current swarm, it was the largest in the area since March 30, 2014, when a 4.8 magnitude earthquake hit near Norris Geyser Basin, according to a news release from the University of Utah Seismograph Station.

    Farrell said the swarm is the effect of normal tectonic stress in the Earth’s crust. As of Friday morning, his the University of Utah seismologists weren’t seeing anything volcanic in nature. Yellowstone National Park is home to a large volcano and the site of the largest and most diverse collection of natural thermal features in the world.

    It’s impossible to predict when this current earthquake storm will end.

    “These things could turn off in a heartbeat, or could last for months. Most go for a week or two,” Farrell said.

    Farrell urges people to report any activity they feel to the USGS’s “Did you feel it” website, which help scientists record and understand shaking. People can also watch earthquake activity live at www.quake.utah.edu.

    10% chance of massive eruption.



    Scientists Warn Current Yellowstone Quake-Swarm "Could Rip The Guts Out Of America"
    http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-06-17/scientists-warn-current-yellowstone-quake-swarm-could-rip-guts-out-america

    U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) seismology reports conclude that a massive swarm of earthquakes swept through the park on Friday triggering more than 60 separate events in which seismographs spiked to magnitudes of up to 5.0.

    U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) seismology reports conclude that a massive swarm of earthquakes swept through the park on Friday triggering more than 60 separate events in which seismographs spiked to magnitudes of up to 5.0.

    Experts fear that the supervolcano is long overdue for an eruption capable of wiping out a vast amount of human, animal, and plant life in the Continental United States.

    Scientists currently believe that there’s a 10% chance that a “supervolcanic Category 7 eruption” could take place this century, as pointed out by theoretical physicist Michio Kaku who appeared on a segment for Fox News.

    The grey haired physicist told Shepard Smith that the “danger” we are now facing with the caldera is that it’s long overdue for an eruption which Kaku said could “rip the guts out of the USA.”

    Kaku said that a “pocket of lava” located under the park has turned out to be twice as big as scientists originally thought.

    Scientist concur that the last eruption of the caldera took place some 640,000 years ago.

    The U.S. is currently under contract with at least 4 countries all of which have agreed to house displaced U.S. citizens in the unfortunate event the Yellowstone supervolcano were to erupt. Hundreds of billions of dollars were paid to foreign governments to facilitate the agreement which spans a ten year period from its signing, ending in 2024.

    An excerpt from an article I authored in April of 2014 titled: “Report: Brazil, Argentina and Australia sign contracts worth hundreds of billions of dollars to house displaced U.S. populace when Yellowstone supervolcano erupts” reads:

    The U.S. plan for relocation was formulated after a recent scientific analysis of the park revealed that Yellowstone’s supervolcano has the potential to violently erupt within the next 10-years as noted by others including the famous astrophysicist Michio Kaku.

    In fact, Praag, a Pakistani publication, recently reported:

    It may take up to ten years for pressure in the magma chamber of the super volcano to build. According to Dr. Jean-Philippe Perrillat of the National Centre for Scientific Research in Grenoble, France, “it is the difference in density between the molten magma in the caldera and the surrounding rock big enough for the magma from the chamber to the surface to increase “.

    “The effect is the same as the extra buoyancy of a soccer ball under water fill with air, after which it rises to the surface because the surrounding water poet,” said dr. Perrillat. “If the magma volume is large enough, it should go to the surface to rise and explode like a champagne bottle that ontkurk be.”

    According to Dr. Sipho Mathetwe, the South African government “sympathy for the American challenge (challenge) to Yellowstone, but we have our own challenges in South Africa. There are 200 million white people in America, and if too many of them to South Africa flights, it is a big problem, even though there is enough housing and infrastructure available. It will destabilize the country and may even bring back apartheid. South Africa is not for sale.”

    However, according to the report, “Brazil, Argentina and Australia” jumped on the bandwagon, accepting the request from Washington.

    The calm before the storm started a few weeks back when researchers noticed a downtick in seismic activity before Friday’s swarm struck.

    Earthquake expert “dutchsense” chimed on Yellowstone in a video posted to YouTube on June 15, one day before the swarm occurred, to warn of future activity in the region...

    Yellowstone Supervolcano Hit by a Swarm of More Than 400 Earthquakes in One Week
    By Hannah Osborne On 6/19/17
    http://www.newsweek.com/yellowstone-supervolcano-earthquake-swarm-eruption-risk-627189

    YELLOWSTONE WATCH - Page 6 Yellowstone-usgs

    Updated | Yellowstone supervolcano has been hit by a series of earthquakes, with more 400 recorded since June 12. The latest was recorded on Monday, June 19, with a magnitude 3 earthquake striking 8.6 miles north northeast of West Yellowstone, Montana.

    The swarm began last week, and on June 15 saw a magnitude 4.5 earthquake take place in Yellowstone National Park. “The epicenter of the shock was located in Yellowstone National Park, eight miles north-northeast of the town of West Yellowstone, Montana,” scientists from the University of Utah, which monitors Yellowstone Volcano, said in a statement.

    “The earthquake was [reportedly] felt in the towns of West Yellowstone and Gardiner, Montana, in Yellowstone National Park, and elsewhere in the surrounding region.”

    This earthquake was the largest to have hit Yellowstone since March 30, 2014, when a magnitude 4.8 earthquake was recorded 18 miles to the east, near the Norris Geyser Basin.

    “[The 4.5] earthquake is part of an energetic sequence of earthquakes in the same area that began on June 12,” the statement continued. “This sequence has included approximately thirty earthquakes of magnitude 2 and larger and four earthquakes of magnitude 3 and larger, including today's magnitude 4.5 event.”

    As of June 19, 464 events had been recorded. Most of these ranged in the magnitude of 0 to 1, with five less than zero, indicating they occurred at depths ranging from about 0 miles to about 9 miles. "This is the highest number of earthquakes at Yellowstone within a single week in the past five years, but is fewer than weekly counts during similar earthquakes swarms in 2002, 2004, 2008 and 2010," scientists said.

    Map shows the magnitude 3 earthquake that struck Yellowstone on June 19. USGS

    The University of Utah is part of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO), which monitors volcanic and earthquake activity in Yellowstone National Park. Seismic activity at volcanoes can signal an eruption is due to take place, although predicting exactly when a volcano will erupt is, at present, impossible.

    Experts at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) say the risk of an eruption at Yellowstone supervolcano is low—the current volcano alert level remains normal and the aviation color code, which provides information on the potential risk to fights, is green—meaning the volcano is in a normal, non-eruptive state.

    A spokesperson from the USGS and YVO tells Newsweek the current activity appears to be “slowly winding down” and that “no other geological activity has been detected.”

    The probability of a large eruption at Yellowstone in the next year is currently calculated at one in 730,000.

    But what would happen if it did erupt? In 2014, scientists with the USGS published a report where they modeled what would happen if a large, explosive eruption took place at the supervolcano. Their findings showed most of the country would be covered in a blanket of ash, with some areas being buried up to a meter deep.

    However, the USGS also said that if Yellowstone were to erupt, it would likely be far smaller than the one modeled. They also described what would concerning signs of activity would constitute: "Yellowstone hasn't erupted for 70,000 years, so it's going to take some impressive earthquakes and ground uplift to get things started,” the team said in a press release.

    "Besides intense earthquake swarms (with many earthquakes above M4 or M5), we expect rapid and notable uplift around the caldera (possibly tens of inches per year). Finally, rising magma will cause explosions from the boiling-temperature geothermal reservoirs. Even with explosions, earthquakes and notable ground uplift, the most likely volcanic eruptions would be the type that would have minimal effect outside the park itself."

    This story has been updated with the current number of events since the swarm began, per a statement from the USGS on June 19, and an explanation about earthquakes with a magnitude of less than zero.

    Yellowstone Supervolcano Earthquake Swarm Reaches 878 Events in Just Two Weeks
    http://www.newsweek.com/yellowstone-supervolcano-earthquake-swarm-update-eruption-risk-629272
    By Hannah Osborne On 6/27/17

    Updated | Over 800 earthquakes have now been recorded at Yellowstone supervolcano over the last two weeks, with the ongoing swarm taking place on the western edge of the National Park.

    But there is virtually no risk of the volcano erupting, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) currently lists the volcano alert level as normal and the aviation color, which lists the potential risk to fights, is at green.

    The current earthquake swarm began on June 12. A week later, the USGS put out a statement to say that 464 earthquakes had been recorded, with the largest being magnitude 4.4 “This is the highest number of earthquakes at Yellowstone within a single week in the past five years,” it said.

    At the time, a spokesperson for the USGS told Newsweek activity appeared to be “slowly winding down,” adding that “no other geological activity has been detected.”

    However, in a newly released statement about the ongoing swarm, seismologists from the University of Utah said 878 events have now been recorded at Yellowstone National Park.

    The University of Utah is part of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO), which provides long-term monitoring of earthquake and volcanic activity in and around Yellowstone National Park. Jamie Farrell, Research Professor at the university, said that as of June 26, 878 events had been recorded as part of the ongoing swarm.

    “The swarm consists of one earthquake in the magnitude 4 range, five earthquakes in the magnitude 3 range, 68 earthquakes in the magnitude 2 range, 277 earthquakes in the magnitude 1 range, 508 earthquakes in the magnitude 0 range, and 19 earthquakes with magnitudes of less than zero,” the latest report said.

    An earthquake with a magnitude less than zero is a very small event that can only be detected with the extremely sensitive instruments used in earthquake monitoring.

    While increased seismic activity can signal a volcano is about to erupt, the latest earthquake swarm is no cause for concern. Jacob Lowenstern, the scientists in charge of the YVO at the USGS, tells Newsweek the swarm has slowed down considerably, and that larger swarms have been recorded in the past.

    “The swarm in 2010 on the Madison Plateau lasted at least three weeks.  In 1985, there was one that lasted several months,” he says. “Yellowstone has had dozens of these sorts of earthquake swarms in the last 150 years it's been visited. The last volcanic eruption within the caldera was 70,000 years ago. For magma to reach the surface, a new vent needs to be created, which requires a lot of intense geological activity.

    “The volcano alert level remains at green. As outlined in our response plan, USGS Circular 1351, we would need to see considerably more and larger earthquakes, combined with contemporaneous ground deformation, steam explosions, and changes in gas and heat discharge prior to moving the alert level. None of that has occurred.”

    The USGS says the current risk of an eruption at Yellowstone is one in 730,000. Furthermore, if it were to erupt, the eruption produced would probably be fairly inconsequential. Lowenstern explains: “If Yellowstone erupts, it's most likely to be a lava flow, as occurred in nearly all the 80 eruptions since the last ‘supereruption’ 640,000 years ago.  A lava flow would be a big deal at Yellowstone, but would have very little regional or continental effect.”

    Farrell also says the earthquake activity is nothing to worry about: “This is definitely not the biggest swarm ever recorded,” he says. “The largest swarm ever recorded in Yellowstone occurred in October of 1985 and lasted for 3 months and had over 3,000 located earthquakes in it.  In January of 2010 there was a swarm that had over 2,000 located events in it that lasted for about a month.


    YELLOWSTONE WATCH - Page 6 Yellowstone
    Yellowstone View of the 'Grand Prismatic' hot spring in Yellowstone National Park.


    “Swarms in Yellowstone are a common occurrence. On average, Yellowstone sees around 1,500-2,000 earthquakes per year. Of those, 40 to 50 percent occur as part of earthquake swarms.  This swarm is larger than the average swarm we record but this is a normal thing to happen in Yellowstone (and other volcanic regions throughout the world).”

    He says they are not seeing an “volcanic signatures” that would indicate an eruption could take place. “This looks to be a ‘tectonic’ swarm in that these earthquakes are due to slip on small faults/fractures in the crust.  There doesn’t look to be any evidence at this point that these earthquakes are related to the movement of magma in the subsurface.

    "Having said that, we will continue to monitor this swarm just in case we start seeing those things.

    “When a volcano starts ‘acting up’ prior to an eruption, one of the typical signs is increased seismicity.  However, it is usually just one of the signs of an impending eruption. Other signs include, large changes in surface deformation, changes to the hydrothermal system and changes in gas output.  We monitor for all these things at Yellowstone. Typically if we see just one of these things, it doesn’t necessarily mean there is an eruption coming. If we start to see changes in all these things, then a red flag may be raised.”

    More than 900 Earthquakes at Yellowstone While Swarms of Tremors Hit Other Hotspots

    Read more at https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/90496/900-earthquakes-yellowstone-swarms-tremors-hit-hotspots/#q251Sa41GA7WLtGS.99

    As the number of earthquakes which have hit Yellowstone Park in recent days climbs to 900, several other large “swarms” of quakes have mysteriously struck around the globe. While scientists reassure the public that the odds of a cataclysmic eruption are remote, the earth-shaking phenomena invariably evoke prophetic scenarios.

    More than 900 earthquakes shook Yellowstone in the last two weeks, making this the most volatile single week for the last five years. Its caldera crater in Idaho is one of the most seismically active areas in the US, shaken by around 1,500-2,000 earthquakes per year. But the United States Geological Survey (USGS) assured the public that the rate of the tremors was slowing down, and did not raise the volcano alert level from its present ‘green’ status.

    “This swarm is larger than the average swarm we record but this is a normal thing to happen in Yellowstone,” the USGSD said in a statement. “While increased seismic activity can signal a volcano is about to erupt, the latest earthquake swarm is no cause for concern.”

    Apart from Yellowstone, more than two dozen earthquakes shook the Lake Tahoe region early Tuesday, with the largest tremor reaching a significant 4.0 on the Richter Scale.

    On the other side of the world, more than 50 small tremors and two earthquakes larger than 4.0 on the Richter scale hit Northern Iceland. The USGS commented that while series of earthquakes “aren’t unusual”, in this case, “they were many and some of them large all at the same time.”

    In addition, Japan was hit by at least five separate earthquakes this week ranging from magnitude 4.7 to 5.2. Japan is part of a seismically active region referred to as the Pacific Ring of Fire, an area prone to earthquakes. In 2011, Japan was hit by an earthquake-generated tsunami which killed 16,000 people and caused meltdowns at several nuclear power-plants.

    By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com (Early Sunday Release)

    Author, filmmaker and renowned radio host Steve Quayle says don’t believe what you hear from the mainstream media about earthquakes signaling that Yellowstone National Park is on the verge of erupting. Quayle, who has studied Yellowstone for decades and lives nearby, contends, “Yellowstone gets between 1,000 to 3,000 earthquakes a year. (Steve Quayle called and got me to correct this quote that originally said “1,000 to 3,000 a day.” Quayle says that was a slip of the tongue, and it is in fact 1,000 to 3,000 earthquakes per YEAR.) I personally have been there filming when there were 880 earthquakes. So, the panic over Yellowstone is misplaced. I personally think it’s a red herring. . . . The reason why I am calling it a red herring is there are probably 37 active volcanos going off in the world. There are earthquakes happening all over the ring of fire, which is the area around the Pacific Rim. We have a situation in the Long Valley and Mammoth Mountain area between California and Nevada.”

    Quayle says he has inside sources at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that say the government is in a near panic about a massive earthquake possibly erupting soon in Northern California that could leave millions dead. Quayle says, “I want to get this message out, and that is ‘people you are on your own.’ They will not come and help you. . . . I don’t think people can fathom or wrap their heads around 3 to 10 million people possibly dying. Once again, this is according to DHS. There are no official statements coming out from them because it’s not open for discussion. The question is what information do they possess that they are basing their training and warning all their people on that the American people do not have access to? If they won’t tell you the truth, and information is your first bastion of defense, they, I can only submit to you, number one, they are unable to handle the carnage. Number two, they are worried about the panic and number three, what it would do to the “E” word. The “E” word is the economy. So, the thing they have to do is maintain a level of hypnosis.”

    A NASA plan to stop the Yellowstone supervolcano from erupting, could actually cause it to blow... triggering a nuclear winter that would wipe out humanity. As we have detailed recently, government officials have been closely monitoring the activity in the Yellowstone caldera.

    However, as SHTFplan.com's Mac Slavo details, scientists at NASA have now come up with an incredibly risky plan to save the United States from the super volcano.

    A NASA scientist has spoken out about the true threat of super volcanoes and the risky methods that could be used to prevent a devastating eruption. Lying beneath the tranquil and beautiful settings of Yellowstone National Park in the US lies an enormous magma chamber, called a caldera. It’s responsible for the geysers and hot springs that define the area, but for scientists at NASA, it’s also one of the greatest natural threats to human civilization as we know it.

    Brian Wilcox, a former member of the NASA Advisory Council on Planetary Defense, shared a report on the natural hazard that hadn’t been seen outside of the agency until now. Following an article published by BBC about super volcanoes last month, a group of NASA researchers got in touch with the media to share a report previously unseen outside the space agency about the threat Yellowstone poses, and what they hypothesize could possibly be done about it.

    “I was a member of the NASA Advisory Council on Planetary Defense which studied ways for NASA to defend the planet from asteroids and comets,” explains Brian Wilcox of Nasa’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) at the California Institute of Technology.  

    “I came to the conclusion during that study that the supervolcano threat is substantially greater than the asteroid or comet threat.”

    Yellowstone currently leaks about 60 to 70 percent of its heat into the atmosphere through stream water which seeps into the magma chamber through cracks, while the rest of the heat builds up as magma and dissolves into volatile gasses. The heat and pressure will reach the threshold, meaning an explosion is inevitable. When NASA scientists considered the fact that a super volcano’s eruption would plunge the earth into a volcanic winter, destroying most sources of food, starvation would then become a real possibility.  Food reserves would only last about 74 days, according to the UN, after an eruption of a super volcano, like that under Yellowstone.  And they have devised a risky plan that could end up blowing up in their faces.  Literally.

    Wilcox hypothesized that if enough heat was removed, and the temperature of the super volcano dropped, it would never erupt. But he wants to see a 35% decrease in temperature, and how to achieve that, is incredibly risky. One possibility is to simply increase the amount of water in the supervolcano. As it turns to steam. the water would release the heat into the atmosphere, making global warming alarmists tremble.

    “Building a big aqueduct uphill into a mountainous region would be both costly and difficult, and people don’t want their water spent that way,” Wilcox says. “People are desperate for water all over the world and so a major infrastructure project, where the only way the water is used is to cool down a supervolcano, would be very controversial.”

    So, NASA came up with an alternative plan. They believe the most viable solution could be to drill up to 10km down into the super volcano and pump down water at high pressure. The circulating water would return at a temperature of around 350C (662F), thus slowly day by day extracting heat from the volcano. And while such a project would come at an estimated cost of around $3.46 billion, it comes with an enticing catch which could convince politicians (taxpayers) to make the investment.

    “Yellowstone currently leaks around 6GW in heat,” Wilcox says. “Through drilling in this way, it could be used to create a geothermal plant, which generates electric power at extremely competitive prices of around $0.10/kWh. You would have to give the geothermal companies incentives to drill somewhat deeper and use hotter water than they usually would, but you would pay back your initial investment, and get electricity which can power the surrounding area for a period of potentially tens of thousands of years. And the long-term benefit is that you prevent a future supervolcano eruption which would devastate humanity.”

    Of course, drilling into a super volcano comes with its own risks, like the eruption that scientists are desperate to prevent. Triggering an eruption by drilling would be disastrous.

    “The most important thing with this is to do no harm,” Wilcox says.

    “If you drill into the top of the magma chamber and try and cool it from there, this would be very risky. This could make the cap over the magma chamber more brittle and prone to fracture. And you might trigger the release of harmful volatile gases in the magma at the top of the chamber which would otherwise not be released.”

    The cooling of Yellowstone in this manner would also take tens of thousands of years, but it is a plan that scientists at NASA are considering for every super volcano on earth.

    “When people first considered the idea of defending the Earth from an asteroid impact, they reacted in a similar way to the supervolcano threat,” Wilcox says.

    “People thought, ‘As puny as we are, how can humans possibly prevent an asteroid from hitting the Earth.’ Well, it turns out if you engineer something which pushes very slightly for a very long time, you can make the asteroid miss the Earth. So the problem turns out to be easier than people think. In both cases it requires the scientific community to invest brain power and you have to start early. But Yellowstone explodes roughly every 600,000 years, and it is about 600,000 years since it last exploded, which should cause us to sit up and take notice.”

    So what would happen?

    Yellowstone update
    after a days worth of rest of quakes it looks like things are ramping up again.

    Is the Yellowstone SUPERVOLCANO about to blow?
    Map of its magma chambers could help reveal when the next deadly eruption will take place

    A detailed map of the bubbling magma below the Yellowstone supervolcano could help experts reveal when the next deadly eruption may happen. The monstrous volcano - which last erupted around 640,000 years ago - has dual magma chambers.

    Now, a new computer model has revealed a 'transition zone' that may control the movement of magma in these chambers.
    The new research doesn't currently reveal when the next eruption might happen, but it could help scientists put together predictions in the future.

    The mammoth volcano blows roughly every 600,000 to 700,000 years, meaning an eruption could be imminent. The monstrous Yellowstone volcano (pictured) - which last erupted around 640,000 years ago - has dual magma chambers, a new computer model has revealed.

    Pictured is the mid-crustal sill that separates the two magma chambers under Yellowstone. The sill can be up to 15 kilometres (9 miles) thick, according to the team's computer modelling. The model suggests opposing geological forces are pushing against each other at depths of three to six miles (five to 10 km). This has created a transition zone where cold rocks are giving way to the hot molten rocks below,

This has created a transition zone where cold rocks are giving way to the hot molten rocks below (see right)

    'This is, for the first time, the numerical look at how magma distributes itself in the crust,' study co-author Ilya Bindeman, a geoscientist at the University of Oregon told Live Science.

    The model suggests opposing geological forces are pushing against each other at depths of three to six miles (five to 10 km).

    This has created a transition zone where cold rocks are giving way to the hot molten rocks below.

    The transition zone, also known as a 'mid-crustal sill' is trapping the magma.

    As a results, it solidifies into a large horizontal area that is around nine miles (15 km) thick.

    The study, which was published last week in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, was led by Dr Bindeman's doctoral student, Dylan Colón.

    'He was able to choose parameters which were both realistic for Yellowstone and the ones which match geophysical observations and also geochemistry,' Dr Bindeman said.

    The crust over Yellowstone moves around 0.8 inches (2 centimetres) a year due to the movement of the North American tectonic plates.

    'This modelling tells you with maybe half a kilometre [about a third of a mile] resolution where the magma is and what is the composition of this magma, how much magma, etc.,' said Dr Bindeman.
    The new research provides a never-before-seen look that helps explain the structure of the magmatic plumbing system that fuels these eruptions.

    With more detail the model could predict future eruptions and how severe they might be, researchers say.

    Over the past weeks, fears have sparked over a possible eruption at Yellowstone’s Supervolcano. The panic is being fueled by the Steamboat Geyser at Yellowstone National Park, which has erupted three times in the past six weeks.

    The question that lies in everyone’s mind is, ‘Should we be concerned?’ Are the Geologists telling us the truth about Yellowstone?’

    All that and more below…

    This is Steamboat geyser erupting for approximately 25 minutes.  Note that the steam and water is bringing up rocks.  It is throwing out rocks. This eruption happened 2 days ago.

    Carol,
    Heads up...
    .  
    Warning.......Warning......Warning

    We have had these alignments and not much has happened so maybe it will be nothing.  However, if you live in an earthquake prone area, it might be a good idea to have a plan.  The time span on this is about 30 days from July 19 onward.  If there is an earthly release, let's hope it's not Yellowstone.
