Ecuador’s Geophysical Institute, known as IGEPN, reports new eruption at the Cotopaxi volcano outside of nation’s capital Quito at 10:50am local time Friday.
Yesterday at 17h21 a swarm of earthquakes that lasted until 18h06 (local time) was detected. The largest earthquake of this swarm occurred at 17h23 and had a magnitude 2.7. Later today at 04h02 and 04h07 two explosions were recorded, the first of which had an amplitude 6 Pa NTBs station. This corresponds to small explosions. See figure 1. These explosions were heard by climbers who climbed the volcano.

The first Tesla arrives in ecuador?
Does this mean Ann Margret isn't coming?
“climbers is especially recommended caution”
I’ve got a great idea..
Let’s go climbing on an active, erupting volcano.
I've got my GoPro, Smart Phone and Selfie Stick.
Also, please assume that rescuers will endanger their lives to help you if god forbid, an accident happens due to your lack of exerience and proper gear. It wouldn't hurt to draft a statement about how outragous it is the rescuers will bill you for the costs.
Did the bankers have something else to cover up? Pull it.
In the interest of international cooperation, fighting global warming/climate change/climate disruption/etc. that the EPA send all of their clean air idiots down there clean up this mess. That will give the US coal industry a fighting chance.
Don't forget your fitbit wrapped around your arm as a backup to tell you your heart rate and BP when you're falling off the cliff edge, and how many calories your screams are buring up.
Come on bitch let's make this quick,
I wanna take a pic with my Selfie Stick...
Pods... I want you to get straight up to Phu Bai. Captain Durden will need all his people.
And Pods, you will take off that damn button. How's it gonna look if you get killed wearing a Trump 2016 symbol?The dead...have been covered with lime.
They know only one thing, it is better to be alive.
Coming? Hell, she ain't even breathing hard.
So how much CO2 is being spewed into the atmosphere right now? And does this mean iz gonna hottin up a bit more on dee earf?
Grinder,
Good point, better get Odumbo on it.
This is interesting re Mount Tambora 1815 eruption:
"As a result, not only did the mountain go from a height of 4,300 m to 2,850 m, but CO2 was released into the atmosphere in such quantities that it impacted the climate on a global scale. In 1816, several regions of the world experienced a climatic shift, with a temperature drop of a few degrees Celsius, impacting agriculture to such an extent that it caused famine and disease in Europe."
Lots of CO2 = cooler? I'm confused now.
That was ashfall, which overcomes any effect of CO2...assuming CO2 even makes that much of a difference. When one looks at the great ice age cycles and checks the amount of CO2 present in ice core samples, CO2 levels always increased AFTER the ice ages started.
Who really knows what to believe any more...science is so heavily politicized it is hard to determine which studies are done without a pre-existing agenda these days. But ash into the high atmosphere DOES decrease world temperatures.
Science relies on the scientific method, which relies on experimentation.
No experimentation=No science.
Astronomy, astrophysics, ecology, geology, meteorology, paleontology and archeoloy are not sciences.
Curiously, both economics and sociology could "be" sciences if one believes economists and sociologists do not just observe society, but experiment with it.
Doomroidcano!
IT'S ALL OVER MAN!!
Global warming?
Climate change?
Man's fault?
Fuck you!

Very emotional.
Effect
Fixed yer post.
Go to suspicious0bservers. You'll learn a good thing and two about solar activity and earth geological activity.
Some would also argue Wave X is partly in play.
Wave X? You mean the one that the evil scientists at CERN are creating to keep us all trapped here? Or the wave of cosmic rays the universe is sending our way to enhance our DNA so we can escape our controllers? Is Dr. Simon Atkins a disinfo artist? Is 'The Wave' of Laura Knight-Jadzyck fame the real deal? Is the wave an emanation from the central core of our galaxy caused by a black hole eating matter, as LaViolette says? Or is it the three 'waves of volunteers' of starseeds that are here on Earth to change it from within as prophesied by Dolores Cannon?
It's all so confusing...think I'll just grab my board and catch a wave.
Low risk of casualties as 90% of population is now in California and Virginia.
West Virginia
True. Mexico actually gives them rides to the US border because they don't want Ecuadorians illegally immigrating to Mexico.
Global warming, because Saint Al of Gore says so, or maybe its all that fracking.....
Ecuador had it coming for sheltering Julian Assange
terrorists! The earth is now a part of the axis of evil.
She's out to kill us all! Better Moon-Run it.
.
Its just a volcano. Happens all the time in South America.
At last! Or even at least, a sensible comment!
Yep, but the MSM is surprised when anything in nature occurs and it's always somebodies fault......
I blame CERN
"I blame CERN"...well according to BPEarthwatch, there's a huge double CME that's due to hit. Says to expect increased geological activity.
Tah-Dah !
Speaking of CERN -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rc37dRCI4w
Japan has closed all of its 54 Nuclear "Power" Plants (last two going down). Still nobody complains about lack of electricity... Why!? Toyota has made enormous profits without Nuke "power". How is that possible!!? ... folks, the time to reveal papal dirty secrets has arrived: Nuclear Plutonium Factories are not producing - but consuming energy!
Hitlary's campaign
whatever you do don't throw her in the whole world would explode from indigestion.
Have to throw a couple Lake Erie-sized Prilosecs in with her just to be cautious.
You'd have to balance it by throwing in a million virgins, and a one ring Obamaphone.
Where is the EPA condemning the planet for release of greenhouse gases?
They caused it.
They're busy tinting rivers...
;-D
Yeah, What messymerry said...
Must be Obama's fault.
Moochelle broke wind.
Send the EPA, all will be well.
You'll see...
(snort!)
Gaia is very angry, and is NOT going to take it any more.
There is also very little chance of infrastructure damage, because Equador doesn't have any.
Good Lord, this climate change thing is worse than I thought.
Being on a volcano that is erupting can be harmful to your health?
Where would we be if we didn't have government to warn us of these things??
I love the stupid government warning about hiking the mountain right now...lol
I don't think the heavy stuff is going to come down for a while. I'd keep hiking.
Next trigger strike.. hit's Yellowstone.. this was just a test...
How many tons of greenhouse gasses and crap is this little puppy belching out? My guess it's more than all the stuff produced by man since the industrial revolution. But no, it's ALL man made!!!
Exactamundo. The earth has mechanisms to balance out gas ratios. But the eco-nazis like to pretend that it is a fragile flower.
Some bankster already selling CO2 certificates to Ecuador.
Tyler probably no excess autos, but plenty of excess poverty there.
Ecuador should be long respirators, and umbrellas....Ashes away
If I was an Inca..I would sacrifice something
That's what neighbors are for...
;-D
C'mon now. Love thy neighbor. (His wife, too.)
Ha! Read The Gods of the Copybook Headings...:
i think i'll sacrifice a bottle of Blanton's tonight - maybe it'll help...maybe not
I'm planning to sacrifice a bit of vodka later. Think that will help?
How can it be taxed is the question.
Nothing to see here.....move along. Just a mountain getting its rocks off.
The US needs to send some kind of assistance. Maybe we can get Oprah to sit on it.
US response:
It doesn't behave as how we want it to behave so lets bomb it.
Global Warming caused this. The evil of George W. Bush knows no bound.
Last time is was in space, I could not see any coal plant exhaust. Good thing there is only one volcano like this, and they only go off once every 200 years. /sarc
There are about 3 million volcanoes, belching non stop. One only hears about the big eruptions.
Didn't realize Ecuador devalued their currency recently
Bullish for tourism
"...very energetic emissions of steam and volcanic gases, which can be harmful to health." or the stuff of life?: http://paleobiology.si.edu/geotime/main/htmlversion/archean3.html
The eruption occurred because God is angry that Julian Assange is still holed up in the London Ecuadorian embassy and because Equador supports Argentina's mythical Malvinas claims:
https://www.academia.edu/10490336/Argentinas_Illegitimate_Sovereignty_Claims
God is livid...
Free Manning!
Archie, Payton, Eli (oil tycoon brother Cooper) or Chelsea?
You mean mythical because the island is currently settled by british instead of the former argentinians, who by now would be dead already anyway?
Good to know. I should rely the good news to my "friends" in Tzahal. All they have to do is kick out the arabs, wait one generation for the dust to settle, and nonchalantly reply "what arabs?" when asked about the arabs.
They should drop AlGore out of an airplane ass first from 60,000 FT into the mouth of the Volcano as a sacrifice to the Glo-Bull Warming Gods.
Possibly some temporary global cooling if this gets big enough:
http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-do-volcanoes-affect-w/
"Initially, scientists believed that it was volcanoes' stratospheric ash clouds that had the dominant effect on global temperatures. The 1982 eruption of El Chich¿n in Mexico, however, altered that view. Only two years earlier, the major Mt. St. Helens eruption had lowered global temperatures by about 0.1 degree C. The much smaller eruption of El Chich¿n, in contrast, had three to five times the global cooling effect worldwide. Despite its smaller ash cloud, El Chich¿n emitted more than 40 times the volume of sulfur-rich gases produced by Mt. St. Helens, which revealed that the formation of atmospheric sulfur aerosols has a more substantial effect on global temperatures than simply the volume of ash produced during an eruption. Sulfate aerosols appear to take several years to settle out of the atmosphere, which is one of the reasons their effects are so widespread and long lasting."
However, the downside:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotopaxi
"Future Cotopaxi eruptions pose a high risk to the local population, their settlements and fields. The main danger of a huge eruption of Cotopaxi would be the flow of ice from its glacier. If there were to be a very large explosion, it would destroy most of the settlements within the valley in the suburban area of Quito (pop. more than 2,000,000). Another city which would be in great danger is Latacunga, which is located in the south valley and was destroyed in the 18th century by volcanic activity."
I had nothing to do with it. I swear.
Just the EPA fooling around with some dynamite.
