Our new paper is out! 🎉 We analyze post-eruption subsidence deformation at the La Palma eruption sites, providing new insights into the volcano's evolution after the 2021 eruption. Read it here: dx.doi.org/10.1029/2026...
Another interferogram (Sentinel-1, descending track) covering the bulk of the rupture. The fact that you see essentially (the southern) half of the displacement pattern, indicates that the fault was offshore, or close to it. The noisiness is due to the tropical vegetation in-region.

One of the most prominent features of Lindisfarne’s geology is the Holy Island Dyke, part of the famous Whin Sill suite. The second image shows a ropy flow structure on the floor of a large, flattened gas bubble (vesicle) located near the top of the dyke. Explore GeoScenic: bgs.assetbank.app
Un estudio coliderado por @pablojglez.bsky.social, del #IPNA-CSIC, revela que las grandes fallas geológicas pueden actuar como “autopistas” del magma… pero también como barreras que lo frenan 📖 www.csic.es/es/actualida... #Ciencia #Volcanes #Geología @csic.es @csicdivulga.bsky.social
The 4D complexity of the seismic swarm is hard to capture in figures, so we made a short 5-min explainer video (subtitles in Portuguese & Spanish): www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKOn... Great to co-lead this with @pablojglez.bsky.social. Thanks to everyone involved.
Magma on the Move: Inside the 2022 Azores Seismic-Volcanic Crisis

Our new paper on a stealthy magma intrusion in the Azores is now out in Nature Communications: www.nature.com/articles/s41... We show how volcanic dikes intruding into faults can both speed up magma ascent and prevent eruption at the surface.
Fault-mediated magma propagation and triggered seismicity revealed by the 2022 São Jorge Azores unrest - Nature Communications
A study of 18,000 earthquakes during a failed 2022 Azores eruption shows that crustal faults can both guide rising magma and halt its ascent. The magma stalled 1.6 km underground, triggering a months-...

A large magma intrusion beneath São Jorge Island in 2022 rose rapidly but stalled underground, demonstrating how geological faults can influence whether magma erupts or remains contained. doi.org/hbx8k6
How an Atlantic island narrowly escaped 'stealthy' eruption
Thousands of earthquakes affecting Portugal's São Jorge Island in the Azores in March 2022 were triggered by a vast sheet of magma (molten rock) rising from more than 20km below Earth's surface and stalling just 1.6km beneath the island, according to a new study led by UCL (University College London) researchers.

I saw with horror a student training “offer” in volcanology charging €1,200 to work for a bully (known for poor mentoring/abuse in exchange for a many‑author conference poster). Don’t do it! If you can pay for an internship, contact people you actually want to learn from. Students aren’t cattle.
Our new paper in Nature takes a critical look at what happens when you drill into a magma body. We find that by understanding that response properly, you can unwind the processes and get back to what the conditions of magma storage really were. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The 2018 magnitude 6.9 Kīlauea earthquake appears to have halted periodic slow slip events on a major fault, potentially delaying their recurrence for several decades.
2018 Kīlauea earthquake may have stalled fault's slow slip for decades
The magnitude 6.9 earthquake that took place in 2018 on the south flank of Kīlauea on the Island of Hawaiʻi may have stalled episodes of periodic slow slip along a major fault underlying the volcano, according to a new study by scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey.

A team of scientists from the Spanish Cancer Research Centre (CNIO), led by the Dr Mariano Barbacid, has achieved the complete and permanent disappearance of pancreatic cancer in experimental (mice) models. This discovery could make a difference in the fight against this disease. 👏
Did you know that two Network of the Americas (NOTA) GPS stations are measuring uplift on the northwest side of Yellowstone caldera? Learn what's being measured and what this movement means in the latest Yellowstone Caldera Chronicles: www.usgs.gov/observatorie...
It’s baaaaaack… The Norris Uplift Anomaly
In July 2025, an area on the north rim of Yellowstone caldera began to uplift slightly. This area also experienced uplift during 1996–2004.

We think there was a small eruption there in July/August (at least a small plume) and some ongoing activity there since (including continued uplift). I suspect all linked to recent activity along dyke from Erta Ale (See COMET reports on July/August activity at comet.nerc.ac.uk/event-respon...).
