12:03 am
a record breaking amount of lightning males. this joint explosion, which scientists think is a one in a 1000, your event, this so volcano it takes about a 1000 years. a fully reach answer would just happen to be around of the point where is unleashed a vast amount of it's mike. men are really exposed away, was probably one of the my c, m, energetic explosions of the entire 21st century. i saw the eruption was some big, it could be seen from space. and between that and the so now me significant damage is being reported and toner. oh, you zealand is planning to st military aircraft to check the damage. that was an almost 20000 meter high ash cloud. it's not yet safe to fly. shops along the coast have been damaged in a significant cleanup will related no coil. ofer is covered and thick film of our kennedy dust, new zealand to so the effects of the waves, the water tossing boats as if they were toys in this marina. some fisherman said

peru to women were reported to drowned and strong waves near the northern coast. let me know medical. i didn't notice the 1st wave. during the 2nd one, people started moving more towards the shore. it was with the 3rd wave when it reached a war. on the 4th, everything got flooded and the water reached up to my niece. this, an army threat has receded that reports of damage is still coming in and the are option and toner may not be the last. alixia, ryan al jazeera or shane cronan is a professor of vulcan ology oakland university. he studied the hunger tonga, hung up by volcano, from 2014 to 2015. he joins us by skype, so you have spent time in the area a could you 1st of all, stop by explaining what causes an event like this. here, what a marion. good to talk to you. so intervene like this. this was the culmination of
12:06 am
magma building up inside the spoke kind of for quite some time. so it's full of magnetic gas. so it's full of trapped gas with inside the magma. and as the magma pressure rises within the volcano, and there's the gas pressure rises, eventually volcano can no longer hold it. and so there was a sudden release of that gas to produce the rupture. and so like you were mentioning, we visited that island that was produced in interruption in 20142015. and that was basically a little island produced in the middle of a large cold era. and that was kind of like the full run around the curtain rise to the main event. and we were also seeing coral fridge, colorado that was uplifted recently and around 2015. so the swelling of bank volcano has been going on for about 10 years prior to the export of eruption.
12:07 am
and what about this shock wave that emanated from the island, which, which radiated outward, was close to the the speed of sound. now just explain that part of the explosion forest and how it was able to travel so far so quickly. absolutely. so all of these very large explosions are very impulsive explosions. produce an atmospheric shock quite so you imagine that the top of this volcano, around 150 to 250 meters below sea level and is that material sort of rises out of a rapidly rises at the top of the volcano bulge of expanding magnor and gas it's just bursting out and it's bursting out through the water and in through the air and that rapid sudden explosion in pressure eyes is the air and we
12:08 am
think of the air is being sort of, you know, invisible. and there's nothing there. but they are actually, what happens is the, it gets compressed until the shock waves and they were traveling around the world. the remarkable thing about this or option was your head, the rapid rise in the expansion of the gas and steam plume. and then parallel to that, you had the sea nami radiating outwards and also the shockwave radiating at what's went around the entire world. is the west of eruption now over. we would hope, sorry. certainly the gas rich has, has, has occurred, and we've had a very strong gas gassy explosion. i would expect them to be continuing eruptive activity, but perhaps lace explosively violence. now the 2 for 2 reasons. one is the 1st of all over the, the gas accumulated in the malware is kind of escaped and that big burst. the 2nd
12:09 am
reason is the top part of the volcano is kind of collapsed in on itself. and so then the top part of the volcano is a little deeper than it was before. so this may, may have the effect of damping the explosion, but at least in the atmosphere, it could still produce the synonymy with, with ongoing, your options violent as the explosion was in the effect that it had on the area causing a great deal of damage knocking out communications, this is actually relatively rare. this happens once every 1000 years. well at this volcano? yes. so your previous speaker was talking about a 1000 year time interval when that was because i studied the volcano, but also i studied the ash from the volcano on top of the top and on the pipe group of islands as well. and so using radio cabin dicing, we've been able to get a chronology of those of those previous eruptions. and the last one of this kind of
12:10 am
size was around 1100 id. and then there was another one around $200.00 id of about the same size. so we think that's the kind of reach of the best particular volcano, the scale of disruption, probably volcano explosives index to the 5. so there's a scale from 0 to $8.00. and the explosive energy was similar to that of the $991.00 pennant to better option in the philippines. although the philippines eruption was longer and produced more. so this one was a quite a shorter option. extremely violent spectacular on that magnitude scale. but because relatively small amount of mag now we're thinking something in the order of a half a cubic kilometer between a half a cubic kilometer in one cubic kilometer about the size based on the changes in the top of the volcano. and also based on that size and sprayed all be erupt unemployed
12:11 am
despite the fact that it doesn't very often just the strength of the explosion, as you've explained to us how devastating is that photographer ball. thankfully, this island is spent 65 kilometers away from the capital city of tonga. so that's the sort of immediate impact, sorry, but this kind of eruption within the sort of 20 kilo much a 25 kilometer radius would be extremely davis stating. and so when you're further away, the biggest impacts are obviously the soon i mean generated. and these were remarkably big for volcanic events and the, and the fall. and then also the ongoing presence of sulfur dioxide that's in the atmosphere that can continue to produce acid rains. and crop damage and also just struck water supplies. well thank you very much for joining us. i do appreciate it from oakland,

12:33 am
appeal to over time. the cancellation of his visa now the f. b. i's identified the man responsible for taking 4 people hostage at a synagogue in collierville, texas. as a 44 year old person, malik pfizer at cram all for hostages. were rescued safely after a 10 hour standoff with police at graham died. at some point during the stand off, but to officials of not said how a crumb was demise was demanding the release of pakistan in you are a scientist, our fiesta dk who is serving an 86 year jail time for try to kill us troops and f b, i, agents, or mbc cars, one in morgan, shasky has more from texas, that's already not going into details about the final moments of that rescue or what took place inside that place of worship. but they are saying that right now, those 4 members of the synagogue, including a rabbi,
12:34 am
are now speaking with f. b. i. agents to paint a much clearer picture of what took place when that man entered that place of worship. saturday morning and began making demands, at least one of which was the release of a federal prisoner being held at a detention facility about 20 miles away from this quiet dallas suburb. well, max abrams is a professor political science at ne of us. he joins us by skype from boston. so 1st of all, what sort of communication or coordination will that be between u. k and us intelligence or law enforcement agencies over this? i think that we're at the very early stages here. this obviously involves the united states. we're the hostage about top end and the citizen care apparently was from britain. and so it's possible that you know that the u. k. has information about this guy that will be useful to law enforcement in the united states. and so
12:35 am
they're going to be talking not just at the law enforcement level, but also the hostages themselves, who were exposed to this hostage taker for a rather long time. the incident took place over the course of, of something like 10 hours. also i think that some of the event early on was recorded because this was during shabani most of the congregants were not actually present in there, so they were watching it online. and so i'm sure that they're also going over the footage. and they're probably also talking with the family. i think that the questions about when, you know this individual lives in the united states and what he was doing in that interim period in between when he arrived and when the hostage incident happened. it's likely that during that time, that's when he got to go. and so where he got that fire alarm is also going to be
12:36 am
of interest. and what will investigators want to know from the people who are inside the synagogue? i think maybe the most interesting question is, you know, what are the motives of this individual. you know, it's been widely reported that there's, that there's hostage taker or crum made it to me. and for the relief of the d k, who is a sort of a known archive link, terrorist who's been in us custody for a long time since 2010. and so that's very interesting because that shows that it's not a standard hostage event, but that it's cameras finished. and so it's and then i felt burks of his family and his family thought strike to sort of dismiss the political angle by saying no actually you know,
12:37 am
relative suffered from mental health issues that i think that we may gain additional insight from the hostage. and, you know, did this individual seem like he had mental health issues? was he, you know, seemingly stable and consistently repeating the same political to me? well, we had those hostages in his custody. and how straightforward would it be to establish why this particular place was targeted? well, that is another question. i think that it's self evident that, that the target was not arbitrary. i don't think it was random. if you look at the population of texas, you know, most people are not jewish. this guy clearly went to a synagogue good. the hostages were intended to be jewish. he appeared we got the rabbi on the phone in communication with another rabbi in new york in order to make
12:38 am
the demand for the release of that terrorist in us custody. all of which suggests that that jews were targeted in particular. and that, that makes particular sense. because the to tell us in us custody was a very well known sunlight. so i do, i am not of the belief that this target selection was in any way arbitrary. i'm very relieved as are, you know, as is everybody that in the end, the hostage taker ended up demonstrating some restraint. surely he had the ability to kill those hostages. if indeed it's true that he was armed and yet he did not do so. and so this event ended much better than the way it started. thank you very much for sharing your thoughts on that. started as max abrams joining a staff from boston. my pleasure. now molly's former present. abraham blue
