Respuesta

The LGT modelo para el Libro de Mormon situa al Libro de Mormon en el modelo de las placas tectonicas de las tierras del Caribe model, y en la intersecion multiples placas tectonicas de mucha actividad sismica y volcanica.

Los 3 dias de oscuridad son consistnetes con un periodo de intensa actividad volcanica. Esta expicacion de los tres dias de oscuridad ha sido particularmente popular entre esos quienes abogan por un limited geographical modelo del Libro de Mormon. La mayoria de los Modelos LGT ubican al Libro de Mormon en la tierras de Centro America, esta area es bien conocida por la intensa actividad volcanica.

Un autor sugiere:

  • La causa basica de la destruccion fue una tremenda conmocion volcanica.
  • Numerosos mecanimismosm destructivos se vieron envueltos, pero la lluvia no fue uno de ellos.
  • El acompañamiento al periodo de oscuridad fue causada por una inmensa nube local de ceniza volcanica.
  • El hecho sin presedentes fue debido a una descarga electrica dentro de una nube de ceniza.
  • Los truenos intensos fueron debidos a los rayos y al retumbar de de la tierra debido a los movievientos sismicos.
  • El vapor de oscuridad (1 Nephi 12:5; 19:11) y la neblina de oscuridad (3 Nephi 8:20) fueron cenizas volcanicas y y polvo disperso por el fuerte movimiento del terreno.[1]
The intersection of the Cocos and Caribbean plates results in multiple volcanoes (shown in red dots on this USGS map) through central America.

Also:

The inability to ignite the exceedingly dry wood is interesting in view of the fact that a few people are also described as dying from suffocation during the period of destruction which preceded the period of darkness (3 Nephi 10:13). This suggests that in some regions the concentration of dense volcanic gases (carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide) at ground level was sufficient to prevent igniting of the kindling and to cause suffocation. The uncle of Pliny died of suffocation as a consequence of a volcanic eruption.
James Baer notes that volcanic eruptions could have accompanied the violent earthquake described in 3 Nephi. He notes that these would have made the atmosphere dark with dust and cinders and would have released carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and sulfurous gases, which would have been suffocating and could have made fire kindling impossible.
Another mechanism, however, seems an equally likely explanation of the inability to ignite the dry tinder. If one assumes that sparks from flint were the common method of starting fires, then the heavy ash fall could have been effective in preventing ignition. This heavy ash fall also offers a likely explanation for the terms mist of darkness and vapor of darkness used in 1 Nephi 12:4–5.[2]

Dating evidence

Furthermore, ice core data is consistent with a major volcanic event at the time of Christ's death, within the margin of error provided by the dating measurements, though it is not at present possible to determine the location of these eruptions.[3]

Conclusion

3 Nephi 8:5-25 provides a detailed description of a massive volcanic and seismic eruption. Such details are precise for both ancient and modern accounts, though they would have been unknown to Joseph Smith.
