Re: [Geology2] A sleeping super-volcano in Germany is showing worrying signs of waking up



Thanks so much, Vic, for posting this and for the subsequent paper on the West Eifel Volcanic Field. I became familiar with this group of volcanoes when I put together a .kml of the world's known hotspots. At that point, it was the first time I'd ever heard of it. Looking on the map, you'll see various sized maars and cones around the area. Should prove interesting.

Fresh activity near a dormant 'super volcano' in Germany has left experts worried about a possible eruption. Britain's Daily Mail wrote the eruption from the 'monster' underneath Laacher See lake near Bonn, could eject billions of tons of magma which in turn could cause widespead devastation in Europe and even 'short-term global cooling'. 

A sleeping super-volcano in Germany is showing worrying signs of waking up.
