🔥 Naissance d’un élémental de lave ?
Depuis le ciel, le volcan Fagradalsfjall (Islande) révèle un visage incandescent.
Une entité de feu et de pierre semble s’éveiller dans les entrailles de la Terre… 🌋🧠

And there we have it. The 8th eruption from the #Svartsengi magma reservoir. By far the smallest one in terms of eruption time, area and volume.

Updated lava comparison map that also includes the #Fagradalsfjall eruptions.

Fagradalsfjall Volcanic Eruption Before Sunrise, Iceland

The Fagradalsfjall volcanic eruption, which began in March 2021, marked a significant geological event on the Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland. This eruption was notable for its relatively gentle effusive activity, characterized by the emission of lava flows rather than explosive volcanic eruptions. The eruption site, located near the Fagradalsfjall mountain, attracted considerable attention from scientists and tourists alike due to its accessibility and the stunning visual displays of flowing lava.
The eruption was preceded by a series of earthquakes, signaling the movement of magma beneath the surface. This seismic activity is common in Iceland, which sits on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, a tectonic boundary where the North American and Eurasian plates are diverging. The eruption itself produced impressive lava fountains and created vast fields of basaltic lava, reshaping the landscape.
Over the course of several months, the eruption underwent various phases, with periods of intensified activity and quieter times.

The Vagabond Couple: Return to ICELAND: Journey to Fagradalsfjall Volcano, Raufarhólshellir Lava Tubes & Revisiting Golden Circle to Southern Jewels

From quaint fishing village Grindavik we journey to fiery Fagradesfjall volcano standing next to lava flow watching raw power of nature in Iceland.

Question for #GeoMastodon: could the Iceland Deep Drilling Project (IDDP-2) flow test in Reykjanes in December 2019 have triggered earthquakes from January 2020 in Svartsengi preceding the 2021 Fagradalsfjall eruption?

Today: #VolcanoThursday meets #StructuralGeology. Last year during #hedgewatch on #Iceland we found this #slickenline in #lava from the 1st 2023 #eruption at #Fagradalsfjall. The scratch originated when a block of solidified lava was pushed over softer lava

....... Fig 3 #Slickenlines are impawtent if you find them on #faultplanes because they can tell you in which direction the #rocks moved🙀 This example is from #Crete
