The leading edge of a lava flow destroys a road on 8 February 2024 near the town of Grindavík, Iceland. Fracturing and tectonic stress can drive ultrarapid flow into dikes, as in the event that preceded Iceland’s recent eruptive episodes.

Our #CoV12 field trip stopped at the Hervideros de San Jacinto - boiling mud pots located along a regional fault. #Nicavolcanoes

COV12 Pre-Meeting Field team @Telica volcano. The trip led by @volcano_diana @wstrauch & I, visited Masaya, Cerro Negro and Telica volcanoes. Amazing 4 days & group!

[Rock Lab Strasbourg @LDR_Strasbourg]

Abstract submission deadline for #EGU24 is 10/01! Eight days! For volcanic processes, look no further than GMPV8.6 "Volcanic processes: tectonics, deformation, geodesy, unrest" 👇

:: Minard (Pete) Hall died Sunday. One of the founders of the Instituto Geofísico in Ecuador, he and his students/collaborators made great strides in our understanding of Latin American volcanoes. He will be sorely missed.

[Sophie Butcher @sophie_butcher_]

Weeew it’s been a busy few months. A short 🧵 of highlights…

At the end of October I headed off to the Galápagos with colleagues from @IGecuador, @dias_geophysics, @ucddublin, University of Bremen and AWI for another field campaign on Sierra Negra

[NASA Earth @NASAEarth]

NISAR: tested and passed ✅

The @NASA-@ISRO satellite passed a 21-day test of its ability to function in the extreme temperatures and the vacuum of space. Once in space, #NISAR will give us a dynamic view of how Earth’s land and ice are changing.

An #eruption of #Klyuchevskoy (#Kamchatka, #Russia), Eurasia's highest active #volcano, has spread SO₂ & ash over the North Pacific. #Sentinel5P #TROPOMI detects ~0.1 Tg SO₂ on Nov 2; Klyuchevskoy's largest eruption since 1994 but well below the threshold for #climate impacts.

[European Research Council (ERC) @ERC_Research]

#DYK that over 10% of the world's population is at risk from volcanic eruptions? 🌋

With a new #ERCSyG, Thomas Walter, Valentin Troll, Claire Harnett & Michael Heap are pooling different skills and knowledge to tackle the problem 👉 https://t.co/sUsKRttKWp
