Tonga · TongaSource: Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems A remotely controlled research vessel has gathered some of the first comprehensive measurements from within the massive crater left by the Hunga volcano (formerly known as Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha‘apai) after it erupted 2 years ago. The underwater eruption of the Tongan volcano in January 2022 sent a plume of ash and gas 20 kilometers (12 miles) into the atmosphere and excavated a crater 850 meters (half …See the Story
