Científicos advierten sobre impacto global de posible erupción de Yellowstone

Los científicos dijeron que una futura erupción del supervolcán Yellowstone podría generar una gran caída de ceniza, desencadenar un breve periodo de enfriamiento global y producir muertes indirectas generalizadas, mientras señalaban que un monitoreo exhaustivo probablemente permitiría emitir alertas tempranas. Según The Conversation, los científicos describieron posibles precursores sísmicos y medidas de evacuación. FOX Weather, basándose en investigaciones volcánicas del Reino Unido, proyectó que la erupción podría afectar durante meses los viajes aéreos, la infraestructura, la agricultura y el clima global.

SciTechDaily señaló que la extensa caída de ceniza podría interrumpir la infraestructura y la agricultura y provocar efectos climáticos y de salud a largo plazo. Westword advirtió que la ceniza podría impactar la atmósfera, la infraestructura y la salud de la población de Denver.
