Eine Studie von australischen Forschern legt nahe, dass der gewaltige Vulkanausbruch des Hunga Tonga im Jahr 2022 die Winter auf der ganzen Welt bis zum Ende der aktuellen Dekade verändern wird – von Australien über Nordamerika bis nach Skandinavien.
From January 1, 2025, the New Zealand Council of Legal Education has plans to make teaching tikanga Māori and te ao Māori compulsory in the legal curriculum for students, meaning all core law courses will have a compulsory tikanga Māori component. On the 7th of May, King's Counsel Gary Judd filed a complaint to the Government's Regulations Review Committee over this move, claiming that tikanga didn't fall under “proper law subjects”. Producer Sofia Roger Williams spoke to co-Tumuaki at Te Hunga Rōia Māori o Aotearoa, the Māori Law Society, Tai Ahu (Waikato, Ngāti Kahu (Te Paatu)), about these changes to the legal curriculum and the role of tikanga Māori in law.
Guest: Dr. David WilmouthEpisode Intro: On January 15, 2022, a massive eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcano occurred, sending literal shockwaves around the globe and releasing millions of tons of material into the atmosphere. This eruption was unprecedented in the modern satellite era in terms of how much water vapor was injected into the stratosphere and just how far into the stratosphere it penetrated. Here to talk about the impacts of the eruption on the stratosphere is Dr. David Wilmouth.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Oil sands produce more air pollution than industry's required to report, study says (0:54) The volume of airborne organic carbon pollutants — some of the same pollutants that lead to smog in cities — produced by Alberta's oil sands have been measured at levels up to 6,300 per cent higher than we thought. John Luggio, a research scientist with Environment and Climate Change Canada, said their cutting edge techniques in their new study picked up many pollutants industry hasn't been required to track. Mark Cameron from Pathways Alliance, the industry group representing several oil sands companies, agreed that these findings warrant further review. Megalodon was enormous — but perhaps less husky than we'd thought (9:20) The extinct shark megalodon was likely the largest predatory shark to ever swim the oceans, but a new reconstruction suggests it was not quite the behemoth we thought it was. Scientists had assumed it was beefy and thick like a modern great white shark, but a new study says the evidence suggests it was a slim, sleek killer.Philip Sternes, a PhD candidate at the University of California, Riverside in the department of evolution, ecology and organismal biology, worked with a team of 26 international scientists on the study featured in Palaeontologia Electronica. Astronomers find a planet with a massive, gassy tail (17:46) Observations of a large, Jupiter-sized exoplanet closely orbiting a nearby star have revealed that the planet has a huge, comet-like tail. The 560,000 kilometer-long tail seems to be a result of the powerful stellar wind from the star stripping the atmosphere away from the gaseous planet, and blowing it out into space. The find was made by a team at University of California Los Angeles, including astrophysicist Dakotah Tyler, and was published in The Astrophysical Journal. Put down your laptop, pick up your pen — writing stimulates brain connectivity (26:22) A new study looking at the activation of networks in the brain associated with learning and memory suggests that writing by hand produces much more brain connectivity than typing on a keyboard. This adds to the evidence that writing by hand is an aid to memory. Audrey van der Meer, a professor of neuropsychology and director of the Developmental Neuroscience Laboratory at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, led the work, which was published in Frontiers in Psychology. The aftermath of a record-smashing volcano: Hunga Tonga–Hunga Haʻapai two years later (34:09) The aftermath of the record-smashing Tonga volcano that'll rewrite textbooks Record-smashing Tonga volcano sheds new light on how underwater volcanoes blow In January 2022, the largest underwater volcanic eruption ever recorded devastated the seafloor of the southwestern Pacific. A tsunami washed ashore in nearby Tonga — causing significant property damage, but thankfully taking few lives. Kevin Mackay, a marine geologist from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research in New Zealand, said this blast broke many records, including the loudest sound, highest eruption and fastest underwater avalanches ever recorded. And we're still feeling the heating effects from it today from the water vapour it shot into the stratosphere.

L'éruption du 15 janvier 2022 du volcan Hunga, dans les îles Tonga, a battu tous les records. Selon une nouvelle étude parue dans Geophysical Research Letters, l'éruption a créé un orage "superchargé" qui a produit les éclairs les plus intenses jamais enregistrés. Près de 200 000 éclairs ont été émis dans le panache volcanique tout au long de l'éruption, avec un pic à plus de 2 600 éclairs par minute !

Silvio Berlusconi was a character without much of one. He led Italy longer than any prime minister in the post-war period, and he will be missed ... by prostitutes. In El Salvador, the president has conducted a major crackdown on crime, netting lawbreakers as well as many innocent people, and netting himself a 91% approval rating. Francisco Toro, Contributing Editor at Persuasion and contributor to the Washington Post, joins to discuss if democracy can survive in such an environment. And, speaking of the environment, the Canadian wildfires could change minds on climate change, even if we're not certain they are entirely the fault of climate change.

D'ordinaire, les éruptions volcaniques se traduisent plutôt par un refroidissement des températures. Mais ce n'est pas ce qui s'est produit avec celle du volcan Hunga Tonga, qui a eu lieu, le 15 janvier 2022, au large de l'île Hunga Tonga Ha'apai. Celle-ci, qui se trouve dans le Pacifique, appartient au royaume des Tonga. Il s'agit sans doute de l'éruption volcanique la plus violente jamais encore enregistrée au XXIe siècle. Elle a provoqué une énorme explosion dans l'atmosphère, la plus violente, selon certains experts, depuis celle produite par l'éruption du Krakatoa en 1883. Sa puissance serait équivalente, en effet, à plusieurs centaines de fois celle de la bombe atomique d'Hiroshima. Mais ce qui fait la particularité de ce phénomène, c'est qu'il s'agit de l'éruption d'un volcan sous-marin. Cette éruption inhabituelle s'est traduite par la propulsion dans l'atmosphère d'une énorme quantité de vapeur d'eau, mélangée à de la lave. Ce qui se produit très rarement. Entre 140 et 150 mégatonnes de vapeur d'eau auraient ainsi été expulsées par le volcan. Un chiffre qui donne le vertige quand on sait qu'une mégatonne correspond à un million de tonnes. Or la vapeur d'eau peut être considérée comme un gaz à effet de serre. Son effet sur le réchauffement climatique est d'autant plus significatif que la haute atmosphère en contient peu. Au lieu de faire baisser les températures, comme la plupart des autres phénomènes volcaniques, l'éruption du Hunga Tonga devrait donc plutôt les faire monter. Des chercheurs ont même estimé que, du fait de cette éruption, la probabilité que le seuil de 1,5°C soit dépassé au moins une fois d'ici 2026 passerait de 50 à 57 %. Rappelons que ce seuil de 1,5°C a été fixé par le récent accord de Paris comme la limite à atteindre pour le réchauffement climatique. Les chercheurs rappellent cependant que ces chiffres sont atteints dans le cas d'une égale répartition de la vapeur d'eau projetée par le volcan. Or celle-ci s'étant plutôt amassée dans l'hémisphère Sud, ils sont à relativiser légèrement. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Almost a year on from Tonga's devastating undersea volcanic eruption, volcanologist Shane Cronin asseses the impact and implications for monitoring other Pacific fault lines. The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha apai eruption in January generated a huge tsunami that reached the coasts of Japan and the Americas, claiming six lives, injuring 20 people and causing damage in excess of 100 million dollars. The submarine volcano lies around 65 kilometres north of the Kingdom's main island, Tongatapu, and it was biggest atmospheric explosion recorded on Earth in more than 100 years. It is part of the active Kermadec-Tonga subduction zone and the volcanic arc associated with it extends from New Zealand to Samoa. Since the eruption University of Auckland vulcanologist Shane Cronin has been back to Tonga, leading the local science response and identifying ongoing hazards.

Sara McBride, USGS Earthquake Science Center The collection of online videos and imagery to use in disaster reconnaissance is increasing in frequency, due to accessibility of platforms and the ubiquitous nature of smartphones and recording devices. This presentation explores the processes, goals, and utility of online footage and imagery of geohazards (earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, and landslides) to better understand human behavior. Searching techniques and processes have grown increasingly sophisticated and organized. This talk focuses on three case studies: the 2018 M7.1 Anchorage, 2021 M7.2 Nippes, Haiti earthquakes, as well as the historic Hunga Tonga–Hunga Haʻapai volcanic eruption generated atmospheric shockwaves recorded around the globe, as well as a damaging Pacific-wide tsunami. These videos offer a significant source of data about physical and event-related human behavior, given that little is currently known about human reaction to earthquakes as well as volcanic eruptions followed by tsunami of these magnitudes, as well as the physical phenomena. For the Hunga Tonga–Hunga Haʻapai collected more than 400 videos for the eruption and this data set offers novel information about people's reactions to the eruption and attendant tsunami obtained from 11 different nations throughout the Pacific Ocean basin. This collection provides potential insights into human behavior across cultures and national boundaries related to tsunami impacts. Two findings were of interest: one is that when presented with multiple eruption-related hazards, people were more likely to do nothing than take self-protective action, indicating the need for multi-hazard drills. Further, surprisingly, in our dataset the presence of children seemingly reduced the likelihood that protective action was taken, particularly in relation to the tsunami. These findings can inform future education and outreach efforts to assist in strengthening standardized protective actions for the impacted regions.

Fred Pollitz, USGS ESC Moffett Field The 15 January, 2022 eruption of Hunga Tonga Hunga Ha’apia is the largest since the 1991 Mount Pinatubo eruption. It produced a local tsunami with up to 15 m height and inundation of 500m; a plume that eventually reached 58 km height; globally recorded infrasound waves through Earth’s atmosphere; acoustic-gravity standing waves at two dominant resonant frequencies; worldwide sea waves driven in part by the atmospheric Lamb pulse. It produced globally observed seismic signals from coupling of the different atmospheric waves with the solid earth, as well as direct signals from the volcano due to the reaction force. We explore different seismological approaches to deriving the source time function of the reaction force, which is well characterized as a sequence of Impulsive vertical forcing that produced seismic wave energy in multiple packets for 5000 s after the initial Surtseyan eruption, with a late burst around 15000 s. The seismological results are consistent with the generation of the eruptive plume that expanded rapidly for the first 90 minutes, implying average forces of 10^12 N over this time but reaching magnitudes as high as 2x10^13 during the eruption subevents.
New scientific evidence is helping to paint a clearer picture of the extent of widespread damage to Tonga, four months since the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai eruption and tsunami.

The eruption of the Tonga's Hunga volcano in January has been confirmed as the biggest explosion ever recorded in the atmosphere by modern instrumentation. It was far bigger than any 20th century volcanic event, or indeed any atom bomb test conducted after WWII. Scientists involved in the study published in the journal Science say the eruption was a "truly global event" of similar scale to the 1883 Krakatoa eruption in Indonesia. GNS Science senior volcanologist Dr Geoff Kilgour was one of the authors on the paper.
Volcanologist Shane Cronin has just returned from a survey of all Tonga's northern islands, trying to piece together what led to the largest volcanic explosion ever recorded there.

Unearthing Hunga volcano's secrets - the volcanologist who snorkelled over the underwater volcano.
The eruption of the Hunga underwater volcano is 100 times more powerful than the explosion of the Hiroshima atomic bomb. Underwater giants are waking up right before our eyes. The Hunga-Tonga-Hunga-Haapai volcano exploded in January 2022. ❗️Underwater volcanism has not been studied at all. If we don't find a way out of this catastrophe now, life on this planet will simply end. Because the ocean gives us life.

Earlier this year, Boise State Ph.D. geophysics student Zach Keskinen studied very low-frequency sounds up at Banner Summit not far from Stanley. As part of his research, he buried special microphones in the snowpack to record the sounds of things like avalanches. It just so happens those mics also captured the sound made by an erupting underwater volcano in the island nation of Tonga. Zach joins Samatha Wright along with Volcanologist Dr. Jeffrey Johnson who co-operates BSU's infrasound lab and spends his time studying volcanoes to talk about their experience.
The nation of Tonga is an archipelago of 169 small islands in Polynesia. It's likely you've never heard of it and even more unlikely you were made aware of one the largest volcano eruptions in history. On December 20, 2021, a set of eruptions began and did not stop until it's very powerful climax on January 15, 2021. The ash cloud soared nearly 36 miles high into the atmosphere, the largest in history. Listen along this week as Lila uncovers what is one of the most insane natural disasters of our time. We give you a history, geography, volcanology, and a tsunami lesson filled with lots of laughs inbetween and of course some very relevent side bars. So learn, listen, laugh along as we take a deep dive into the submarine volcano, Hunga Tonga - Hunga Ha'apai.
Ever wonder when the National Weather Service was created? The weather guys join the show to explain. We also explore a volcanic eruption that's affecting earth's atmosphere and how the Farmer's Almanac develops weather predictions.
The Hunga Tonga eruption is one of the largest eruptions observed with modern equipment. This week we'll dig into what happened, how it was observed, and what we think is next for the island chain.

On January 15th 2022, an underwater volcano erupted in the Pacific Island nation of Tonga, sending an ash cloud 100,000 feet in the air. The massive eruption was clearly visible from space, and sparked a tsunami that rocked Pacific coastlines from New Zealand to Japan, Peru to Canada. Today, Christine and JJ describe satellite images of the blooming ash cloud, visualizations of the eruption's shockwave, and videos of the resulting tsunami.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/TalkDescriptionToMe)

The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcano in the Kingdom of Tonga erupted on January 15, and despite communications being cut off, government officials and scientists have gathered a wealth of information about the event and its outcome so far. Plus, urban heat islands, volcanic lightning, and What's Up.
Ecologists are researching the reefs around the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcano to see how the biodiversity might fare. When the volcano erupted in late 2014, it temporarily changed water temperatures by up to five degrees celsius, and dumped masses of ash into the sea. The remaining crater became the newest land mass on Earth. Scientists went there four years later, to see if surrounding coral and fish populations had survived. Reef ecologist Dr Patrick Smallhorn-West spoke to RNZ.

Scientists are predicting that Tonga's main island, Tongatapu, could be blanketed in ash this morning. Auckland University volcanologist Professor Shane Cronin says the magma type erupted is what's called an intermediate composition - similar to what comes from the Ruapehu volcano.
We begin this morning in Tonga, where a massive eruption of the Tonga-Hunga Ha apai underwater volcano has sent dust and debris into the stratosphere. A 1.2 metre-high tsunami struck the Tongan capital Nuku'alofa on the island of Tongatapu yesterday evening, breaching the shoreline and flooding coastal roads and properties. RNZ Pacific's Head of News Susana Lei'ataua joins Emile to discuss what we are learning this morning as the sun comes up over the pacific.

When Sailing and exploring the remote islands of the Northern-most Tongan chain, you might expect to find a similar scene on most islands: small villages, plantations, and friendly Tongans.That wasn’t the case on one sunken volcano. On the shores of the flooded crater of Hunga, we found a small off grid home, a veggie garden, a few dogs and a very nice Candian man named Barry.Barry shares a unique & touching story that led him & his wife to this remote, off-grid lifestyle. Previous successful real estate agents in Canada, they gave it all up to put a dream into action. The dream of living a simple, carefree life on a remote island.
Hablaremos sobre la isla Hunga tonga, que se creó hace pocos años y es de origen volcánica, como segunda noticia hablaremos sobre el caso del paso Dyatlov, un lugar donde hubo unas muertes en extrañas circunstancias y a día de hoy, muchos años después aún sigue siendo un completo misterio. Y ya por ultimo hablaremos sobre el calentamiento global y sus intereses económicos. Voz de la intro de:Xavi Villanueva.

http://thecomedycast.com/ Zoltan came across my radar thanks to video Zoltan had posted up on the mighty Stand-Up Comedy thread over on Reddit entitled "Trump & Toilets". Having a name like Zoltan I instantly thought he was an American with Hungarian ancestry so it was a pleasant surprise to find out that he was actually born in Budapest and had lived there until shortly after the fall of Communism. So, we started out interviewing talking about Hungary, how great the place is and how Zoltan intends to return there this year for the first time in a long time. Since starting in stand-up comedy Zoltan has done particularly well in the comedy competitions he's entered; winning 8 competitions over the last few years. We spoke about how comedy competitions are a necessary evil in the entertainment world for getting more publicity. We spoke about Zoltan and his family moving to American from Hungary in the early 1990s and ending up where he's based now, in San Diego. We spoke about being an immigrant in America and how that had an effect on him growing up. We spoke too about Zoltan having an incredibly supportive mother and eve though coming from a country where you were lucky to have a job during communism she has supported his decision to become a stand-up comedian. We spoke too about touring the college scene, how the 'f word' isn't the 'f word' you're thinking of and how you pretty much go a bit mad being on the road when you spend so much time along. Trump gets an honorary mention. We don't like him. We spoke too about Zoltan's podcast; The Week in Zoltan, a solo podcast where Zoltan keeps his fans up-to-date with what's going on with both his career and his life in general. Finally then we speak about Zoltan visiting Europe this summer for The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, his thoughts and fears over it and one of my favourite subjects, the American phenomenon of 'clean comedy'.
