the ridge he camped on was within the direct blast zone. Gallery: The Incredible Eruption of Mount st helens Overhead Keith and Dorothy Stoffel were making an aerial survey of the volcano

Everything within eight miles of the blast was wiped out almost instantly. The shockwave rolled over the forest for another 19 miles leveling century-old trees;

The area devastated by the direct blast force covered an area of nearly 230 square miles (596 square kilometers.

Shortly after the lateral blast a second vertical explosion occurred at the summit of the volcano sending a mushroom cloud of ash and gases more than 12 miles into the air.

Rice blast disease destroys around 10-30%of global rice crops enough food to feed about 60 million people each year.

which by all accounts generating far more total destruction of cities and lives than the nuclear blasts.

The blast radius is much larger also. If 2-3 nukes were dropped on Japan today most of the entire country of japan would be leveled burned

Krakatoa was a great mountain till it erupted with fire and a blast heard thousands of miles away that cast that Great Mountain into the sea.

Siberia heard an explosion that laid flat more than 800 square miles of the forest with all the trees pointing away from the center of the blast with most all the trees laying on their side.

Some trees that were right below the blast were still there looking like telephone poles with no bark

So the asteroid is missing us by only about 14 minutes. 2012 DA14 highlights Earth's vulnerability to mid-sized asteroids capable of delivering nuclear-sized blasts.

Imagine a giant explosion in the sky followed by a blast wave that would level buildings knock the Golden gate bridge into the sea and subject an area between San francisco and San jose to total destruction.

#Abrasive Organic Herbicide Method Blasts Weeds To Deathone U s. Department of agriculture researcher is experimenting with a sandblasting-style method of killing weeds that could be certified organic Minneapolis'Star Tribune reports.

Working with engineers at South dakota State university Forcella has developed even a tractor-mounted nozzle system that blasts out organic grit using air pressurized to 100 pounds per square inch.

What's the optimal time to blast weeds? Can we blast weeds more cheaply? Here's one tantalizing possibility:

Instead of using inert materials such as corncobs Forcella has tried blasting crops with corn gluten meal which is gritty

On a larger scale it could lead to new types of blast-shielding material for use in combat or by public-safety personnel or equipment.

A sandwich of many layers of such material might provide substantial protection from a blast in a lightweight wearable form though such applications will likely require substantial further research Fang says.

Natural microbe inhibits rice blast fungusa fungus that kills an estimated 30 percent of the world's rice crop may finally have met its match thanks to a research discovery made by scientists at the University of Delaware

and soil sciences in UD's College of Agriculture and Natural resources has identified a naturally occurring microbe living right in the soil around rice plants--Pseudomonas chlororaphis EA105--that inhibits the devastating fungus known as rice blast.

In addition to rice a distinct population of the rice blast fungus also now threatens wheat production worldwide.

According to Bais the rice blast fungus (Magnaporthe oryzae) attacks rice plants through spores resembling pressure plugs that penetrate the plant tissue.

and colleagues Spence Donofrio and Vidhyavathi Raman showed that Pseudomonas chlororaphis EA105 strongly inhibited the formation of the appressorium and that priming rice plants with EA105 prior to infection by rice blast decreased lesion

These bacteria were tested then in the laboratory with Pseudomonas chlororaphis EA105 demonstrating the strongest impact on rice blast.
