noz.de/lebenswelten/natur-nachhaltigkeit/artikel/sizilien-vulkan-aetna-pustet-rauchkringel-statt-lava-46775428
Quick Glance: Rare Sight: Volcanoes Emit Smoke Rings
- Images and videos from the past few days show Europe’s tallest active volcano, Mount Etna, blowing out near-perfect circular smoke rings into the Sicilian sky.
- The smoke rings are coming from a small vent on Mount Etna’s southeast crater and are caused by the constant release of gases.
- These volcanic smoke rings are extremely rare, formed when gas bubbles are pushed through the narrow central part of volcanic conduits and then wrap around themselves to be propelled hundreds of meters into the air.
- An ash cloud from Mount Etna's eruption in August last year resulted in flight cancellations, delays, and diversions, impacting millions during the holiday season.
