InSAR image of the ongoing strong earthquake sequence near Reykjavík. Looks like ~30 km of the ENE-trending plate boundary moved left-laterally at depth with several coseismic N-S right-lateral strike-slip surface ruptures on top, including the one of the magnitude 5.7 earthquake

The surface deformation southwest of Reykjavík as seen by Sentinel-1, indicating continued opening along a NE line. Tremor yesterday, but no eruption, yet. The ascending-orbit interferogram spans 25 Feb - 3 Mar, by Adriano Nobile KAUST PSE ESA Earth Observation

Talið er að ef til goss kæmi yrði það á sprungu einhvers staðar á svæðinu þar sem kvikugangurinn er að myndast. Jarðskjálftavirkni utan svæðisins við kvikuganginn er merki um spennulosun en ekki að þar undir sé kvika á hreyfingu. #jarðskjálftar #Reykjanes

We Veðurstofa Íslands / Icelandic Met Office produce a lot of maps during events like these. We’re trying to release English versions of these maps alongside the Icelandic versions, but they tend to lag behind. Hopefully we can have all of them available in both languages as the situation progresses

Volcanic eruption has begun in Fagradalsfjall. Flight color code is red but very little turbulence is seen on seismometers.

Fyrsta mynd af gosinu. Tekin úr þyrlu Landhelgisgæslunnar. Syðri endi tungunnar er um 2,6 km frá Suðurstrandarvegi. Miðað við fyrstu upplýsingar er sprungan um 200 m löng.

BIG THREE!! #Iceland's Geldingadalur volcano is turning into a must-stop destination for aurora photographers. The latest photo combining geothermal & geomagnetic activity comes from Wioleta Gorecka standing on the banks of the iconic Blue Lagoon. #ThePhotoHour #StormHour

I feel privileged to have been a part of the team! Looking forward to seen the next chapter unfold

Gígurinn við Litla-Hrút rofnaði rétt fyrir hádegi. Barmurinn norðan megin gaf sig, og hraunið rennur eftir nýjum farvegi, enn í suðurátt, en austar en áður. Talsvert hefur lækkað í gígnum eftir að barmurinn gaf sig.
