On 21 August 1986, a limnic eruption at Lake Nyos in northwestern Cameroon killed 1,746 people and 3,500 livestock. [1] The eruption triggered the sudden release of about 100,000–300,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO 2).

On August 21, 1986, a cloud of magmatic carbon dioxide gas arose from the bed of Lake Nyos, a freshwater lake located in a volcanic caldera in the populous Northwest Region of the East African nation of Cameroon. The rare event, called a limnic eruption, was announced by a small explosion that residents of a market town near the lake described ...

尼奧斯湖 （英語： Lake Nyos）是位於 喀麥隆 西北部的 火山湖，距離首都 雅溫得 約315公里。 長2公里，寬1.2公里，湖面位處海拔1,091公尺。 該湖泊位在 西非 喀麥隆火山帶 的範圍內，是典型的 火山口湖，由於湖泊下方即為活火山，故岩漿活動所釋出的氣體會在流動緩慢的湖底形成高濃度的甲烷和二氧化碳（CO 2）水層，累積到一定量就可能產生噴發，對附近居民、牲畜造成巨大傷害。 [1] 湖底下有一個 岩漿 袋， 二氧化碳 （CO 2）洩漏到水中，變成 碳酸。 与尼奧斯湖類 …

2017年4月7日 · On 21 August 1986, one of the strangest and most mysterious natural disasters in history took place at Lake Nyos - a lake formed atop a volcanic crater in northwest Cameroon. A death cloud of 1 million tonnes of CO2.

2024年3月7日 · On August 21, 1986, Lake Nyos in Cameroon released a large cloud of CO2, suffocating over 1,700 people and countless animals by displacing the oxygen around them. Scientists determined that CO2 had been gradually leaking into the lake, eventually erupting in a deadly release triggered by a rockslide.

尼奥斯湖（Lake Nyos），位于非洲喀麦隆北部，为火山湖，海拔1091米，平均水深200米。 尼奥斯湖，表面一望平川，而在500米深的湖底，却溶解了数十亿吨的二氧化碳，并且浓度仍然在上升，随时有爆发的威胁，因此它是非洲特有的三大杀人湖（Killer Lakes）之一。

2024年11月4日 · On August 21, 1986, a catastrophic event now known as the Lake Nyos disaster unfolded at Lake Nyos in Cameroon. A mix of carbon dioxide and water droplets, previously trapped in the lake’s depths, suddenly burst forth and erupted to the surface.

尼奧斯湖災難 （英語： Lake Nyos disaster）是1986年8月21日 喀麥隆 西北部的 尼奧斯湖 發生的一場 湖底噴發。 此次爆發釋放出約100,000到300,000噸的 二氧化碳 （CO. 2） [1][2] 到大氣內，之後聚集而成的氣體雲以接近100公里每小時（62英里每小時）上升，由於空氣的比重較小的關係，二氧化碳向下散發至周邊的村落，進而把湖泊25公里（16英里）內的空氣全部排擠掉，造成多達1,746人和3,500隻牲畜死亡 [3][4]。 2 濃度，從而降低其進一步噴發的風險。

2021年7月23日 · Lake Nyos in Cameroon. The Lake Nyos Disaster was caused by a liming eruption, a natural disaster which sees CO2 rapidly explode from a highly concentrated lake. The eruption resulted in the death of 1,746 people and 3,500 livestock. An estimated 100,000 to 300,000 tons of carbon dioxide gas exploded from within Lake Nyos during the disaster.
