Sounds like the eruption of an underwater volcano

Seventy percent of volcanic activity on Earth takes place under the water. What is happening in the depths of the seas and oceans of eruption can easily cause a huge tsunami, to create an island or kill hundreds of fish. However, due to the fact that these volcanoes are deep under water, scientists often face difficulties in their studies.

a Group of researchers with deep Rovers were able to obtain video and audio recordings of two eruptions in the Pacific ocean. After several years of work, scientists reported record where you can hear the sound of the volcano.

Received acoustic signature demonstrates that emissions of magma accompanied by low-frequency sound, and the release of gas bubbles can be heard on the broadband frequency within a few minutes.



According to the researchers, this information will help to determine the type of the underwater eruption, being hundreds of miles from the volcano.
