BREAKING: #Kilauea is erupting on the Big Island of #Hawaii. The eruption began at 4:44 a.m. HST. Sulfur dioxide and water vapor spewed from the volcano are reacting to produce vog, or volcanic smog, which can have adverse health effects. Volcanologists still assessing risks.

First detailed mapping of the hidden active crater of Lascar volcano by UAS suggests a nested ring structure at the crater floor. Here is the link to the full paper doi.org/10.1016/j.jvol…

Guide to Becoming a Volcano Adventurer. by John Seach There exists a breed of explorers who dare to traverse the planet's most volatile landscapes, who court danger for the chance to witness Earth's untamed fury up close. They are the volcano adventurers, and for them, the roar

Lava cooling and consolidation-induced subsidence hide behind the current large deformation at Fagradalsfjall, Iceland. Note this Sentinel 1 interferogram taken just before the new dike in July 2023. credit: ⁦⁦MOUNTS volcano monitoring system⁩

There is high probability of eruption on the Reykjanes peninsula in the coming days. Large earthquakes have been felt all over the south west corner of Iceland in the last 24 hours and more than 3000 smaller earthquakes have been registered. @bsteinbekk #geology #science

I should note that while I find the notion of a mud volcano (10km inland) erupting fish hilarious and ridiculous, one name for this volcano is ‘鯉魚山泥火山’, which Google translates as ‘Carp Mountain Mud Volcano’. So, maybe there is some bizarre story there? End 🧵

And the coherence on Askja is back. Still ~30 cm of uplift between Septeber 2022 and July 2023. Amazing 🤩
