Volcano Mountain is called Nelr na in the Northern Tutchone language. Geology Volcano Mountain is the youngest volcano in the Fort Selkirk Volcanic Field and one of the youngest in the northern section of the Northern Cordilleran Volcanic Province . The lava at Volcano Mountain is called olivine nephelinite , which is a very uncommon type of lava. This type of lava is believed to have come from much deeper inside the Earth than the basalt ic lava. The last eruption from Volcano Mountain produced young nephelinitic lava flows that remain unvegetated and appear to be only a few hundred years old. However, dating of sediments in lake impounded by the lava flows indicated that the youngest flows could not be younger than mid Holocene and could be early Holocene or older.

Volcano bowls are ceramic drinkware originally associated with mid century American tiki bar s and tropical themed restaurants. Drinks served in volcano bowls are typically rum based, mixed with tropical fruit juices and other liquors such as brandy , vodka , and triple sec , and garnished with fruit. The Flaming Volcano cocktail Flaming Volcano cocktail is especially associated with this drinkware. Volcano bowls typically have a large capacity of 32 oz. or more, and are used to serve a communal beverage to a group of two or more friends who share the drink, often sipping simultaneously from the bowl through long, colorful drinking straw straws . Volcano bowls are designed with a rising central hub feature formed and painted to resemble a crude volcano cone, giving the vessel a topological similarity to a Bundt pan . ref cite web title The Hottest Cocktail in Washington author Fritz Hahn url http blog.washingtonpost.com goingoutgurus 2005 05 the hottest cocktail in washin.html accessdate 2008 05 19 publisher washingtonpost.com ref The central cone, in turn, is topped by a pit or crater which is intended to be filled with overproof rum or other flammable high alcohol liquor. This crater liquor is ignited just before service, creating a festive, mildly volcanic ambience with its central blue flame. Meanwhile, the drink surrounds the volcano cone in a ring shaped moat, like a pool of lava or an ocean surrounding a volcanic island. The exterior surfaces of volcano bowls are usually decorated with painted or glazed on tropical themed images, such as hula dancers, palm tree s, and island landscapes.

Coord 53.212612 5.177650 display title The Zuidwal volcano is an extinct volcano in the Netherlands at more than 2 km below ground under the Wadden Sea , between Harlingen and Vlieland , just south west of the island Griend . The volcano was last active during the late Jurassic , about 160 145 Mega annum Ma ago and has since been covered by about 2000 meters of sedimentary rock , most of it shale and sandstone from the Cretaceous . Discovery The volcano was discovered in 1970 when the French oil company Elf Aquitaine was doing test drills in the Wadden Sea, hoping to find a gas field that a seismic survey had indicated. To their surprise they hit volcanic rock beneath the reservoir rock , which turned out to be an extinct volcano. The gas field went in production in 1988 and is still producing natural gas gas . Another clue indicating the presence of the volcano was the temperature. While the usual temperature at that depth is about a convert 100 C F , they found convert 130 C F . The Volcano The volcano has a height of approximately 1 km. and was formed about a 160 million years ago, during a time of orogenesis on the European continent. The eruptions were short and severe with heavy explosions. This, along with the mineral composition, points to volcanic activity as a result of subduction far away from the volcano. During the Cimmerian Orogeny , the Cimmerian Plate collided with Kazakhstania , sending shock waves through the Eurasian Plate , resulting in volcanism. The volcano is covered by layers of sandstone from the early Cretaceous that act as reservoir rock for the gas. The seal rock consists of shale. The volcanic rock is magnetic, creating a magnetic anomaly .

A volcano observatory is an institution that conducts research and monitoring of a volcano . Each observatory provides continuous and periodic monitoring of the Seismology seismicity , other geophysical changes, ground movements, volcanic gas chemistry, and hydrology hydrologic conditions and activity between and during Volcanic eruption eruption s. They also provide a detailed record of eruptions in progress. Monitor See Prediction of volcanic activity These observations serve to characterize eruptive behavior, identify the nature of precursory activity leading to eruption, define the processes by which different types of deposits are emplaced, and specify the hazards that could be unleashed by each kind of eruption. From direct observation of precursory signs, it is possible to anticipate eruptions. In times of volcanic unrest, observatories issue warnings and recommendations they take on an advisory role for decision making governmental civil defense agencies the Federal Emergency Management Agency in the U.S. and ideally continue producing observational data. Research Underlying all observatory operations is an ongoing program of fundamental research in volcanic processes, supplemented by collaborative studies with universities, government agencies in the U.S. for instance with other ... systems. Almost all observatories are members of the World Organization of Volcano Observatories WOVO .
