American experts found active in the crater An underwater volcano of several sharks, stingrays, fish and jellyfish. Scientists filmed this amazing phenomenon on camera, video recording is possible see below.
The sea creatures seemed to be doing well and not were about to leave the volcano. And this despite the increased temperature and increased acidity of water. Due to such extreme even a high-strength underwater camera could not hold out under water for over sixty minutes.
At forty-five meters deep, oceanologists spotted a silk shark and a bronze hammerhead shark, several fish, a jellyfish and a six-gill stingray. According to Brennan Phillips, the director of filming, the fact that large sea creatures live in hot and acidic volcanic water is truly amazing. It remains to find out how they manage survive here and, most importantly, why they are not in a hurry from here float away.
Kawachi, located near Wangoonu Island in Melanesia, is one of the most active subaquatic volcanoes in Southwest Pacific. His first eruption was recorded in 1939, since then the volcano has risen above the sea eight times, subsequently dropping again. In 2003, another volcanic eruption allowed the formation of a new island with an area of fifteen square meters, however a little later the island, due to all the same volcanic activity, disappeared.
