SEA-SEIS

SEA-SEIS: Structure, Evolution and Seismicity of the Irish offshore. A research project that deployed broadband OBSs across a vast area in the North Atlantic🌊.

Using a similar seismic imaging technique, Raffaele Bonadio is trying to understand how the Iceland plume behaved in its infancy, when its network of volcanoes spread as far as Britain, Ireland and Greenland. Image credit: Bonadio.

@JannekedeLaat is using ‘seismic CT scans’ to look deep into the Iceland plume's plumbing system, using data collected by ocean bottom seismometers deployed as part of the SEA-SEIS project (led by @DIAS_Dublin)

Beneath Iceland lies a colossal fountain of hot rock that rises from Earth's core-mantle boundary. It's the largest mantle plume on Earth, but scientists still have a lot to learn about its workings.

Our researchers presented their work on the Iceland plume at #EGU24, a🧵

Seismic Thermography https://t.co/C8C2CBkjty
Seismic tomography maps seismic velocity variations in the mantle, which strongly depend on temperature. Temperatures are, thus, often inferred from tomography.

@ekh_sci @freqflyer It turned out the variations in the thickness of the tectonic plate controlled the distribution of earthquakes: https://t.co/bP7yBUKPgr

#Researchers have discovered that variations in tectonic plates' thickness relate directly to #earthquake distribution in #Britain, #Ireland, and around the world.

The recent Tonga-Hunga Ha‘apai and Cumbre Vieja volcanic eruptions remind us all of how devastating nature can be. A better understanding of the processes occurring deep below Earth's surface bring the possibility of predicting eruptions a little closer 👉 https://t.co/GmtcUblVqq

Watching a solar eclipse from a satellite in geostationary orbit in space is a very different experience, as you can see in this week's #imaggeoOnMonday video by Maximilian Reuter.
