1st (?) post-event optical image of #TongaVolcanoEruption #HungaTongaHungaHaapai is *very* difficult to decipher due to heavy clouds & not fully processed, but appears that most of island is gone. Small remnants N and S are still there. Comparison 01/15, 01/16 #skysat @planet

1/3 Important thread 🧵... #HungaTongaHungaHaapai #TongaEruption
The massive eruption this January was the largest since Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines blew in 1991, and the biggest explosion ever recorded by instruments.

Huge volcanic eruptions: time to prepare
More must be done to forecast and try to manage globally disruptive volcanic eruptions. The risks are greater than people think.

"Tonga volcano eruption continues to astonish"
This was a great paper session at #AGU22

Some hourly statistics from this latest #HungaTongaashtag/HungaTongaHungaHaapai" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link">#HungaTongaHungaHaapai #HungaTonga #Volcano Eruption.

Peak hourly rate was 200,000 discharges between 0500 and 0600 UTC!

Just absolutely amazing. https://twitter.com/COweatherman/status/1482350232255950848

A small burst of #lightning southeast of where the vent had been located. Is this a new opening in the caldera? #HungaTongaashtag/HungaTongaHungaHaapai" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link">#HungaTongaHungaHaapai #HungaTonga #Volcano

This incredible animation from @ReutersGraphics was put together using nearly 400,000 #lightning detections from the @VaisalaGroup GLD360 ground-based lightning network. Learn more about the lightning in the #hungatongahungahaapai eruption:...

Case in point: When we look at the average 2016-2021 #lightning density, we can easily see #AnakKrakatau #HungaTongaHungaHaapai and #Bogoslof #volcano

In the 21 hours that it was erupting and producing volcanic lightning, GLD360 detected 191,309 events. For context: Anak Krakatau 2018 had ~337k over 7 days.

Der #Vulkan #HungaTongaHungaHaapai hat bei seinem Ausbruch am 15.01. riesige Mengen Schwefeldioxid ausgestoßen. Die Daten des Sensors #TROPOMI an Bord von #Sentinel5P zeigen die Ausbreitung der ca. 7 Millionen km² großen SO2-Wolke. 🛰️🌏

Increased SO₂ emissions from #HungaTongaHungaHaapai began on Dec 20, 2021, & were already unprecedented for this #volcano. @JPSS SNPP/OMPS data show a period of strong degassing (12/20/21-1/2/22), a pause (and/or cloud cover from Cyclone Cody), & then the Jan 13-15 #eruptions.

Latest @JPSSProgram OMPS data from Jan 18. The stratospheric #volcanic SO₂ cloud continues to drift westwards over Australia and has reached the eastern Indian Ocean. SO₂ mass is slowly decreasing as the SO₂ converts to sulfuric acid aerosol. #HungaTongaHungaHaapai #volcano
