Despite Mt. Etna's recent activity, which temporarily forced the closure of Catania Airport, the 7th Alfred Rittmann Conference is now underway. A great start to a week dedicated to volcanology and volcanic risk. 🌋 #Rittmann2026 #Volcanology #AIV
🌋 🚨 Flights suspended at Catania Airport following Mount Etna's eruption. Due to overnight volcanic activity, all arriving and departing flights have been temporarily halted until 2:00 PM. Passengers are advised to check with their airline before heading to the airport.

🌋 Volcanic activity update from #Stromboli (2026-05-26 08:10 UTC) Since 07:32 UTC, an effusive lava overflow has been observed from the North crater area, generating a lava flow descending along the Sciara del Fuoco #INGV
🌋 46 years ago, Mount St. Helens erupted with devastating force, forever changing the Pacific Northwest — and the science of volcano monitoring. The May 18, 1980 eruption flattened forests, spread ash across the U.S., and claimed 57 lives, including volcanologist David A. Johnston. #USGS
🌋😓 Three hikers have died after Indonesia’s Mount Dukono erupted this morning, sending a 10km ash column into the sky. Dukono is one of Indonesia’s most active volcanoes and a popular hiking destination. More info here: www.bbc.com/news/live/c0...
Mount Dukono: Three hikers dead after Indonesian volcano eruption
At least three people - two foreigners and one local - were killed after Mount Dukono erupted on Friday morning.

🌋 La Réunion update A few hours ago, a lava flow from Piton de la Fournaise crossed the RN2 coastal road. This kind of event hasn’t occurred since 2007. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely as lava continues to advance towards the ocean. 📸 AFP via Getty Images
🌋 ETNA – Volcanic Activity Update (Mar 4, 2026) At 12:12 UTC, surveillance cameras recorded an impulsive explosion from Bocca Nuova crater, producing an ash plume that drifted eastward and dispersed within minutes. No significant ground deformation detected. #Etna #OsservatorioEtneo #INGV #Volcano

Thrilled to share highlights from the annual assembly of AIV in Rome 🎓 During the event, we proudly awarded the prizes for Best MSc Thesis to Giada Alfonsi and Best PhD Thesis to Nicolò Nardini. Congratulations to both for their outstanding research and contributions—well deserved recognition! 👏
🌋 Eruption ongoing at the #PitondelaFournaise (La Réunion). Yesterday part of an old cinder cone collapsed, triggering a small pyroclastic flow. The cause was probably the interaction between lava and subsurface water. 📸 Volcanology Observatory of Piton de la Fournaise
Episode 42 of Kilauea, consisting of nearly 10 hours of fountaining from 2 vents, ended last night at 11:38 pm HST. According to #USGS episode 43 might be 2-3 weeks away…Stay tuned! 🌋❤️
Between Feb 7th and 10th, >100 low-magnitude, low-frequency earthquakes have been detected west of Teide (Tenerife) at 10–12 km depth, linked to fluid movement. No gas or ground deformation have been observed. INVOLCAN communicated that there is no increased eruption risk in the short/medium term
