How Elevation Affects Temperature | Journie Tours
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 3 lety
Why is cold up on the mountains and warmer down at sea level? WHy does elevation affect temperature and climate so much? It all has to do with something called the "ideal gas law" and how elevation, pressure, and temperature are all related.

To most people, volcanoes are associated with Hawaii Island, which is found in Northern Arizona. Though there are no active volcanoes in these areas, the eruptions that occurred thousands of years back left behind land features that are widely spread on the surface of the earth. This eruption took place about 700,000 ago when a volcanic vent began to erupt in Northern Arizona. This eruption was...

Inside a Lava River Cave | Journie Tours
zhlédnutí 384Před 3 lety
When the lava has erupted onto the surface of the earth, it cools rapidly but at a different speed. The lava on the surface and in direct exposure to the atmosphere tends to cool faster than the basal lava. Therefore, the lava at the bottom will keep flowing as long as the volcano is still erupting. This flowing lava at the base is what is known as the river of lava, and creates lava tubes as i...

Lava Dome Volcanoes | Journie Tours
zhlédnutí 3,5KPřed 3 lety
Lava domes are formed when the heated magma fails to reach the surface of the earth. Such magma is known as intrusive magma and ends forming several other features, apart from the lava domes. The heated magma becomes trapped in one of the underground spaces. When this happens repeatedly, the lava keeps on piling and solidifying, causing the overlying sedimentary rocks to be warped upwards. Such...

Cinder Cone Volcanoes | Journie Tours

During the formation of the cinder cones, some of the lava coming out of the volcanic vent might not be rich in volatiles. As a result, this lava ends up oozing from the sides of the cone, as long as the vent is still spilling the hot extrusive magma. This lava flows outwards around the cinder cone, forming rivers of lava. In the process, a field of basalt rocks is created on the sides of the v...

    I have a much different theories. A massive big tree caught on fire, burned down into the ground. Burned into the root systems. Notice how Lava tube's also get smaller and then close. After that it's back to dirt and land. Yeah. Massive tree burned down into the ground. TONS of Sap and wood burned down into the ground..... This is your LAVA tube's. All extinct volcanos are this way.... Other are STILL buring hundreds of years later! I don't think people realize how much damage that Astroid did. How much bigger the tree's was. Ever wonder why the source of volcanos are round like trees? Then work down said LAVA tubes. If the was from the Core they would extend below the tube's. It does not.. those was massive TREES!!! VENTS. Some but all originated but most are trees..... RING Of fire is from the biblical tree of life. Which the base of it would sit around impact zone. That massive tree fell and took others with it. It formed our west coast and Rockies! It's all debris.. Just a theory.. A tree like the Sherman Tree, estimated to be around 5,000 years old, would indeed be a massive and ancient living being. If it were to burn unchecked, the consequences would be catastrophic. The Sherman Tree is a giant sequoia, with a trunk volume of approximately 52,508 cubic feet (1,487 cubic meters). If we assume a similar size and composition for the hypothetical Tree of Life, a fire of that scale would release an enormous amount of energy. Burning wood produces a significant amount of heat, ash, and gases, including carbon dioxide, water vapor, and volatile organic compounds. The intensity of the fire would depend on factors like the tree's moisture content, oxygen supply, and the surrounding environment. If left unchecked, a fire of this magnitude could potentially create a small volcanic-like event, with the following effects: 1. Pyroclastic flow: The intense heat and ash could generate a pyroclastic flow, a fast-moving, hot cloud of ash, gas, and rock that could devastate the surrounding area. 2. Volcanic ash cloud: The fire would release massive amounts of ash into the atmosphere, potentially blocking sunlight and affecting the local climate. 3. Lava-like flow: The burning tree's sap and resin could melt and flow like lava, potentially creating a small, localized volcanic-like feature. 4. Crater formation: The intense heat and ash could potentially create a crater-like depression where the tree once stood. Keep in mind that this is a hypothetical scenario, and the actual consequences of such an event would depend on various factors, including the tree's size, composition, and location, as well as the surrounding terrain and environmental conditions... However this seriously challenges the creation of volcanos... THEY HAVE IT BACKWARD!!!!

    @23:50 This shallow subduction which uplifted also the Rocky Mountains is the conventional model. Nick Zentner, Geology professor at the Central Washington University in Ellensburg, has a new hypothesis which comes from new paleomagnetic data. Listen here: czcams.com/video/I9Xk1O17dzg/video.html He makes it clear that this is still a hypothesis which needs to be confirmed by more evidence. However, you might find it interesting.

    • @7inrain
      @7inrain Před 3 měsíci

      After a bit of searching - this model was not proposed by Nick Zentner but he teaches it. Seemingly it is known as the "Hit and run collision model" of the Laramide orogeny, initially described in a paper by Maxson, Tikoff, 1996 (which unfortunately I'm not able to access).

    This effect is so obvious (and amazing) when you live in mountainous regions. My city would be as hot as Las Vegas if it were at sea level. Instead it has a colder average temperature than cities like Chicago and Boston. It’s actually snowing here today, in April. And I know that on the few hot, miserable summer days we have, I can hike 3,000 feet up into the mountains and it will be refreshingly cool. 😊 🥾 💕

    Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. Fools cling to their foolishness in the face of overwhelming evidence that they are fools. You silly "experts" are aware of the evidence for a universal flood less than 5000 years ago, but you can't see it because you're invested heavily in your idiot materialist worldview. Why not take your expert self a few miles to the north and see the evidence for a giant flood in the grand canyon, eh? Or are you afraid of having to admit you're not an expert but a fool?

    @nibiruresearch Před 9 měsíci

    When we look at the Grand Canyon we see many horizontal layers on top of each other but close-ups of these layers also show that they are completely separated from each other and the layers look rather homogeneous. How is this possible? Each layer is the effect of a recurring natural disaster, a huge tidal wave that is pulled over the planet, that is caused by a celestial body that circles our sun in an eccentric orbit. A thick layer of homogeneous mud remains on our planet. Fantasy? No, ancient knowledge that is available in books, legends, myths and religions. The many earth layers are solid proof for this recurring disaster. No scientist will agree to this because they all are focused on their small part of science. They know a lot about a little. Those natural disasters occur in a cycle of seven and create a cycle of five civilizations. The longest living civilization lives no more than 10,800 years. Nonsense? No, ancient knowledge and that knowledge is supported by many depictions that we find in museums on statues, cylinder seals, coins etc. The last time that this celestial body, planet X or nine, was seen and depicted and commented was just before our era. To learn much more about planet 9, the recurring flood cycle and its timeline, the rebirth of civilizations and ancient high technology, read the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". This book answers many of your questions about ancient history. It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: planet 9 roest

    You give them eyes yet they cannot see. Maybe there's a simpler explanation. 6000 feet of flat strata; plus another 2000 feet of the Grand Staircase. 8000 feet of mattresses over billions of years and no pea? No canyons, valleys, roots, or even burrows between the layers. A Marine Transgression of global scale in a short amount of time is the only way that much sediment can be deposited over the entire continent and the globe. Compare the oldest photos of the Grand Canyon from 120 years ago to today and you will see that despite multiple raging floods during that time the canyon has not eroded, possibly from a post flood inland lake. The run off from a massive global flood could explain the 12,000 foot deep Monterey Canyon off the coast of California.

    Believe it or not, there's a retired rancher in Alberta--and a few others--who keep Bison as HOUSE PETS! The one in Alberta, a Plains Bison, not a Canadian Woods Bison, has been quite a celebrity, Bailey's his name--3K#'s of Bovine Love. I forget the rancher's name, but he got Bailey way back when he was one of those darling bandy-legged little cinnamon colored calves. As a wee fellow, he was something of a LAP-Bison, but that phase only lasted about 6 months(Laughs!!). He grew up loving people, is gentle, affectionate, and with intelligence and a sense of humor that his human daddy has compared to that of his dogs (which are Bailey's playmates). Yes, he does go into Mommie's and Daddy's house--tall ceilings and doorways; extra-wide passageways; substantial foundation slab; and, reinforced staircases, if Bailey wants to visit you in a bedroom. He enjoys watching the telly (I suspect Rugby matches are his favorite viewing fare, as a scrum may resemble milling Bison herds!) where he'll repose and form a bit of a living sofa for people to relax against. He rides into town in an old customized Oldsmobile sedan with the passenger cabin cut down to house his enormous bod. He sometimes goes into a pub with Daddy, where he'll grasp a Molson/Labatt's/Moosehead in his incisors, toss back that great shaggy head, and guzzle away! Always a treat for the townspeople, when Bailey is there. He films TV commercials for banks, real estates chains, ski resorts, and other ad clients. It could get interesting to give him a bath & shampoo! I wouldn't rightly know, but during his Spring molts, he must leave maybe 50 pounds of Bison wool behind. Could be interesting stuff, to clean, card, mill, and spin into yarn that can actually be knitted into comfortable sweaters and afghan blankets! I wish that I could meet Bailey and spend some time with him, and that's no BULL (pun intended).

    The European Bison is EXTREMELY similar, called the Wisent. Originally, they ranged from Western Russia, down into the Balkans and Turkey, westwards into the plains of France. As supremely evil and ghoulish as were the Nazis and Hermann Goering--we hate to admit it--but Reichsmarschall Goering at Hitler's behest and for his own prerogatives, saved this beast from extinction, the forests and steppes of Poland making up the relict range, when there were ONLY about 250 of these noble beasts left. They received the SS Runes brandings upon their rumps, as there was a special SS battalion that was detailed to protect them. Any harassment, let alone hunting of these beasts, could earn you a one-way trip to the concentration or extermination camps, if not an on-the-spot summary execution.

    Hi, Journie Tours. Your video is fascinating, and beautiful, and educational. Here's a question: Some of the lava tubes you were traversing seemed like they might be about 6 feet high. Can lava tubes form, that are even larger? Can they be 10 or 20 feet high, and resemble caverns? Thanks again.

    Great video! I’m from the Netherlands, Europe, and when you look for pictures of northwestern Europe by night, you’ll understand why we hardly see anything, beside Jupiter and Venus, the big dipper, Orion and the polestar. But then we stayed at the Marble Lodge, next to Navajo Bridge. And there we finally got to see it: the Milky Way. At first we sat down, to look up, but then we simply laid down on the porch - totally overwhelmed.

    The Pacific Benthamiana Race--exemplified best in California's Sierra Nevada--is comparatively odorless--sniffed in those bark cracks, unless you sniff during a sharp heat wave. The Black Hills Race of South Dakota/Nebraska/Wyoming will best deliver the soda-fountain scent, and it will permeate the groves on windless days, without one really needing to sniff the bark cracks. Now if you REALLY want a wallop of that soda-fountain smell, just stick your nose into the bark cracks of Ponderosa's close cousin, the Jeffrey Pine, best featured also in California's Sierra Nevada, and those crushed needles may smell more like Pineapples.
