“WATERSPOUTS AND EARTH DYNAMICS. A POSSIBLE RISK FOR AVIATION.”

It is suggested that fair weather waterspouts on sea can be feed with energy obtained from geothermal and volcanic undersea activity. This process can occasionally rise sand and stones from the ocean basin up to the sea surface, and from these, the waterspout dynamics can lift solid materials up to some kilometers height in the atmosphere. This implies a risk for aircraft navigation if the mechanism is not investigated further. . .

“EARTH LITHOSPHERE DYNAMICS, FROM THEORETICAL PHYICS.”

Many phenomena occurring on the earths lithosphere are of geological origin, having its cause in magma accumulations on the earths surface or below it. These processes are usually conducted by magma flows produced by strength failure, which are ultimately due to ”spontaneous broken symmetry ” of the gravitational elastic stress field of the earth. But not only magma flows induce catastrophes. . .

“ON THE CAUSE OF THE PLANE CRASH AF447 RIO DE JANEIRO FLIGHT TO PARIS.”

Based on data provided by BEA Reports N. 2 and 3, in addition to geomor- phological evidence, it is suggested that the cause of the crash of Flight AF447 was the collision with a cyclone or large waterspout that carried sand and other mate- rials from the seafloor to the troposphere. It was caused by an underwater volcanic eruption in the mid Atlantic ocean ridge. The risk of these events can be predicted during flights, in real time, even at night.

A new physical theory entitled “Yield and Strength Theory of Materials” is applied to a simple model of the earth, allowing a better understanding of volcanic phenomenon.  In particular, growing and dismantle of volcanic edifices like Canary Islands.  Liquid magma is generated by rock extrusion at the Gutenberg boundary.  This happens by mechanical failure of the deep lower mantle induced by the large difference between the tangential and radial stresses...
