Historia de los volcanes

Historia de los volcanes

Méndez, Nahúm

Volcanoes are a formidable school of geology and human history. Nahúm Méndez, @geologoenapuros, takes us into the exciting world of volcanology, from the most dangerous eruptions that changed the history of the earth to the latest technology to measure the pulse of active volcanoes. But we will not stop at Earth, but we will know what they can tell us about the origin and evolution of our solar system. A work that will undoubtedly arouse interest in volcanic phenomena and the functioning of our planet. How does a volcano act? What have been the most colossal eruptions in history? What are mud volcanoes? How do cosmic rays influence volcanic eruptions? What are limnic eruptions? What relationship does Mary Shelley and her work Frankenstein have with volcanoes? And the volcanoes with climate change? Will we be able to stop an eruption in the future? The fascination with volcanoes has accompanied us throughout our history, a force of nature that captures us by the beauty of its incandescent red lava and at the same time terrifies us by its catastrophic consequences. And it is that volcanoes have played a fundamental role not only in our future, but also in the history of the Earth, since they have been regulators of the climate, they have modeled the surface of our planet and they have even had a primordial influence on the development of the life.
