New eruptive fissures open up at Etna volcano, Italy
Two new eruptive fissures have opened up at Etna volcano, Italy late June 7, 2022. Lava is being poorly fed and the flow has expanded only by a few tens of meters.
Two effusive vents open up at Etna volcano, Italy
Two new effusive vents have opened up on the flank of Etna’s Southeast Crater on May 29, 2022. The effusive rate is currently low. The Aviation Color Code remains at Orange.
Magmatic degassing in Campi Flegrei in recent bradyseismic crises, Italy
A new study published in AGU’s JGR Solid Earth combined the petrological and geochemical data collected in recent decades at Campi Flegrei with numerical simulations, and placed new constraints on the source(s) of the current dynamics of the volcano. The study helps in defining the best monitoring strategies and forecasting a future eruption.
Strong explosive eruption at Stromboli volcano, Italy
A strong explosive eruption took place at Stromboli volcano, Italy at 14:11 UTC on May 25, 2022. This is the second eruption at the volcano since May 13.
Discolored water appears near Vulcano volcano, Italy
Residents living near Italy’s Vulcano volcano reported the appearance of discolored water in front of Levante Beach on May 22, 2022. The phenomenon started with the appearance of dark and foul-smelling water that soon turned milky-white, as seen in satellite imagery acquired by Sentinel-2.
Lava flow eruption at Etna, tremor at high levels and rising, Italy
An eruptive fracture opened on the northern flank of Etna’s Southeast Crater on the evening of May 12, 2022, after series of ash emissions. This led to the production of a small lava flow whose front reached the northern base of the crater. The flow is still active and producing ash- and steam-rich plumes as of early Saturday morning, May 14.
Large explosions at Stromboli volcano, Italy
A series of strong explosions took place at Stromboli volcano, Italy on May 13, 2022. The first event was a moderately strong explosion at 14:42 UTC, followed by a dozen other events over the next three minutes of which the most energetic was at 14:43 UTC.
Intense explosions from four vents at Stromboli volcano, Italy
Almost simulataneous explosions were recorded from four vents at Stromboli volcano, Italy late Friday, March 4, 2022. Thanks to Boris Behncke of INGV we have this amazing video of the eruption: Beautiful simultaneous (or almost so) explosions from four vents at…
Strong eruption at Etna, Aviation Color Code raised to Red, Italy
A new paroxysmal eruptive episode started at Etna volcano, Italy at 11:27 UTC on February 21, 2022. This is the second paroxysm at Etna in 2022. Strong strombolian activity, with ash cloud moving toward SE started at the volcano at 11:15 UTC today, forcing Etna…
Powerful eruption at Etna volcano, heavy ash emissions to 10 km (32 800 feet) a.s.l., Italy
Strombolian activity at Etna's Southeast Crater resumed early February 10, 2022, and reached full paroxysmal phase by the end of the day, with lava fountains 500 – 600 m (1 600 – 2 000 feet) tall, lava flows to southwest and southeast, and eruptive column up to…
