30/08/24 - Climate Connections: Geology of the deep - Singapore at risk with 466 submarine volcanoes lurking at its doorstepSingapore could be at risk of a tsunami, if an undersea volcano in its neighbouring region erupts.
Globally, tens of thousands of submerged volcanoes lurk beneath the ocean's surface, often going unnoticed and are vastly understudied.
With the help of published data sets and sea-floor topography information, new research has revealed that there are some 466 submarine volcanoes in the waters of Southeast Asia, Taiwan, and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Scientists say in the event of an undersea volcanic eruption, volcanic ash can blow towards Singapore, blanketing the surface with fine ash, similar to an eruption of a land-based volcano. Additionally, lava flows and volcanic rock avalanches can damage undersea cables in the region, causing internet outages and disrupting financial transactions.
On this episode of Climate Connections, Dr Andrea Verolino, Research Fellow from the Earth Observatory of Singapore at NTU elaborates on his study aimed at uncovering the secrets these submarine volcanoes hold within.

29/08/24 - Morning Shot: Who will be Japan's next Prime Minister?The race for the coveted title of Japan’s next Prime Minister is on.
Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party is finalising its plans to hold the party's leadership election on 27th September. This comes after Prime Minister Fumio Kishida announced that he will not re-contest for a second term as leader of the incumbent Liberal Democratic Party, after his tenure ends in September.
The upcoming election, the first since 2021 when Kishida was elected party's leader, is expected to see several lawmakers vie for the post to succeed Kishida, with the winner to be anointed prime minister given the ruling coalition controls both houses of parliament.
On this episode of Morning Shot, Professor Tomohiko Taniguchi, Special Advisor to former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's Cabinet and Specially Appointed Professor at the University of Tsukuba weighs in.
