Gulf of Alaska Analysis

The activity in the Gulf of Alaska is not a typical volcano as we usually think of them.  On January 3, 2018, a 3.2 earthquake struck this region at 7.5km.  This buoy is 4km above the ocean floor.  On January 18th, 2018, a 3.4 magnitude earthquake struck along the ocean floor at 4.7km and I identified this time with the first blue line.  This earthquake opened up the ocean floor and allowed cold sea water and magma to interact and is displayed by the lower wave height and increased heat that followed.  On January 23, 2018, less than 48 hours later, and is demonstrated by the second blue line, a large 7.9 magnitude struck due to the rising pressure that the incoming sea water was creating.  We then observe the surface temperature spike and the wave heights increase less than 48 hours later.  Researching this buoy demonstrated no alterations in temperatures of this magnitude in the historical records.
