冰火山 Cryovolcano(重定向自Cryovolcanism)
![]() ![]() ![]() 冰火山(拉丁文作 cryovolcano,字面涵义即为cryo-:冰和 volcano:火山),是存在于地外天体上的与火山相似的一种地貌,通常出现在冰冻卫星或是其他一些低温(表面温度低于-150 °C)的天体上(如柯依伯带上的天体)。与火山不同的是,冰火山不会喷发熔岩,它所喷发出的是水、氨、甲烷一类的挥发物。这类喷发物按「冰火山」类推而称作冰岩浆(cryomagma)。冰岩浆在喷发时通常呈液态而四下流淌,但亦有可能呈气态弥散为烟雾。喷发后,冰岩浆会因暴露在温度极低的环境中而凝结成固体。一些科学家估计土星的最大卫星土卫六上的冰火山有条件为可能存在的地外生命提供庇护。

Cryovolcano 冰火山(重定向自Cryovolcanism)
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() A cryovolcano (colloquially known as an ice volcano) is a volcano that erupts volatiles such as water, ammonia or methane, instead of molten rock. Collectively referred to as cryomagma or ice-volcanic melt, these substances are usually liquids and form plumes, but can also be in vapour form. After eruption, cryomagma condenses to a solid form when exposed to the very low surrounding temperature. Cryovolcanoes form on icy moons, and possibly on other low-temperature astronomical objects (e.g. Kuiper belt objects). |
