“Earthshocks: Ring of Fire” investigates the Earth’s rising incidence of volcanic activity. Research indicates that in the last 1,000 years volcanic activity has increased a staggering 300 per cent! One of the most deadly places on Earth, the “Ring of Fire” is a 40,000 kilometre-long chain of volcanoes and earthquake zones that surrounds the Pacific Ocean.
“Earthshocks: Ring of Fire” visits this region to investigate the devastating potential that a megathrust of earthquakes would have in this area – and what this means for the two billion people in its wake.
“Earthshocks: Hyper Hurricanes.” Expert testimony from leading scientists combines with stunning computer imaging technology to bring to life vivid depictions of the killer hyper hurricanes that once ravaged the Earth. These vicious storms that annihilated whole ecosystems 3,000 years ago are now poised to make a come back – with a vengeance!
“Earthshocks: Hyper Hurricanes” goes into the eye of a hurricane, up to the dizzy heights of the satellites that keep watch on storm activity below, and down to the depths of the Atlantic in Bermuda, exploring the cutting-edge techniques scientists are using to better understand – and predict – hyper-hurricanes.
