Almost two weeks after the town of Grindavík was evacuated over fears of a volcanic eruption, the magma dike beneath Iceland still poses a high risk, with earthquakes and ground deformation ongoing.

The 15-kilometer-long magma dike that formed beneath Grindavík, Iceland, in November 2023, which caused widespread damage and evacuation of the local population, reached an unprecedented ...

On 15 July, a video of an explosive eruption of Erta Ale (Afar Region, Ethiopia) volcano was briefly discussed in the comment section. It was a small ash plume emerging from the summit of the ...

Fresh modeling reconstructing the evolution of a magma dike pushing up through the Earth's crust underneath Iceland suggests that it "could be wider than initially assessed" and therefore could ...

A huge river of underground magma responsible for the recent eruptions at Iceland's Reykjanes peninsula flowed much faster than scientists initially thought. The 9-mile-long magma dike, as the ...

Monitoring indicates that a corridor of magma, or semi-molten rock, extends under the community, Iceland's Meteorological Office has said. The town of 3,400 is about 31 miles southwest of the ...

This means it will take more time for the magma to solidify, possibly a few months, and therefore the threat of an eruption will remain for longer. The update reads: “Additional geodetical modelling ...

It states that GPS data and satellite images show the “uplift” continues in the area of Svartseng, which is next to the Blue Lagoon attraction, around three miles north of Grindavik. It adds: “In ...

The IMO has placed the dike just to the northwest of Grindavík, between the town and the Blue Lagoon. As of November 11, the IMO has issued a warning that an eruption is very likely to occur somewhere ...

A massive volcano has shown critical signs that an eruption could be coming soon, but experts have said that there may be no way of telling when it'll blow.

Margaret Hartley, a senior lecturer in Earth sciences, stated earlier this week that an eruption is imminent when a visible fracture connecting the magma dike to the Earth's surface becomes ...

The time needed to solidify the magma that intruded into the dike would be therefore estimated to be on the order of a few months.” Predicted location Wednesday 29 November 2023 08:14 , Alex Ross ...
