Forsíða vísindatímaritsins Science er helguð rannsókn vísindamanna HÍ og Veðurstofunnar og samstarfsfólks þeirra á tilurð kvikugangsins við Grindavík. Eftir því sem við komumst næst er þetta í fyrsta sinn sem forsíða þessa virta vísindatímarits er helguð rannsókn við HÍ.

Beautiful tephra and Pele's hair from yesterday's eruption in Svartsengi, between Skógafell and Hagafell.

Mjög áhugavert að heyra í hrauninu við sýnatökuna. Það hljómar eins og gler.

The latest #eruption in #Iceland has produced the largest #volcanic SO₂ cloud measured to date in the 2023-24 #Reykjanes Fires, consistent with reports that it is the most intense episode so far.

Overflight time again. This time in bad weather: low light, low clouds, wind, and rain. We got what we could and hopefully have a reasonable overview of the situation. Hopefully better weather and better data soon.

Lava flow update from the ongoing volcanic eruption on the Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland as published by Veðurstofa Íslands / Icelandic Met Office. The orange color shows the lava spread at 1:55 am on March 17. The red color shows the spread at 14:56 on the same day, covering 5.85 sq km yesterday afternoon.

Seven #volcanic #eruptions across the #Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland, in just three years. Let's recap.

The first helicopter overflight of Kīlauea's new SW rift zone eruption site at 6 AM HST on June 3, 2024 showed lava fountaining from 1 km (0.5 mi)-long fissures and volcanic gases blowing downwind. See the latest eruption update & Alert Level changes at usgs.gov/volcanoes/kila…

😍 Þessi sókn! 👀 Our first goal from our 2-1 win against Austria last night. #fimmíröð #dottir

A few site from our seismic deployment in central Iceland last week. All 15 stations deployed and ready to record ground motion for the next 2 years! Given the roads were still closed due to snow at the start of the trip this is a brilliant achievement- well done team!

All eyes on #Kilauea’s upper East Rift Zone. Magma moving from summit into UERZ (~1,500 EQs July 22-25 & changes in ground motion). What's next? Look to the past. Of the ~50 intrusive episodes in past 50 yrs, only 5 resulted in eruption. #VolcanoWatch ow.ly/Yev850SLbse

Large glacial flood in Southern Iceland causing the ring road towards Vik to be damaged & closed. Source is underneath Myrdalajokull glacier best known for the #Katla #volcano. No sign of potential #eruption but roads and tourist attractions in the area closed as a precaution.

Hér má sjá fyrstu 20 mínútur eldgossins á 30 sekúndum. Innviðir eru ekki í hættu miðað við upphaf eldgossins. Benedikt Ófeigsson hjá Veðurstofunni segir að gossprungan sé norðan við vatnaskil og því renni hraun ekki til Grindavíkur.
