About This Lesson
Volcanoes are one of the most powerful natural hazards on Earth, but supervolcanoes are so large that they have the ability to alter the world's climate. Michael Manga from the University of California, Berkeley is investigating a supervolcano that erupted hundreds of thousands of years ago, and could do so again. "When Nature Strikes" is produced by NBC Learn in partnership with the National Science Foundation.
