A fascinating talk by Tricia Nadeau, USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, on volcanic gas monitoring at Kīlauea:

...after an eruption with fire-fountaining, researchers need snowshoes to walk across the fresh fluffy tephra, which can be 25 meters deep close to the crater. The tephra has to be removed from the monitoring stations after each eruption.

This included sampling a groundwater-fed lake after a recent caldera collapse, using drones due to the difficult terrain and the possibility that the whole basin was filled with CO2...

Eruptions of ocean volcanoes may be the echoes of ancient continental breakups

Waves in Earth's mantle created by the rifting of continents may peel the planet's crust from below, feeding volcanoes in the middle of the ocean.

Underwater volcano off Oregon coast likely won't erupt before mid-to-late 2026

Researchers thought that Axial Seamount might erupt in 2025, but recent data suggest the underwater volcano could take a bit longer to blow its top.

With Kīlauea back in the headlines, I’m thinking about the fault lines in Inversion—where boiling rock meets a fragile atmosphere and people choose who we are to each other when the ground won’t hold still. If you like grounded cli-fi with a geologic heartbeat, you might like it.

Lava overflow observed at Stromboli’s North Crater area, Italy

A lava overflow started from Stromboli’s North Crater area at around 10:00 UTC (11:00 LT) on November 9, 2025, feeding a lava flow on the upper Sciara del Fuoco. The activity, observed by the National Institute of Geophysics and #volcanology (INGV) through surveillance cameras, was accompanied by modest but continuous spattering from at least two vents in the North Crater area.

PHIVOLCS warns of possible lahars at Kanlaon volcano as heavy rain from Severe Tropical Storm Kalmaegi approaches

The Philippine Institute of #volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) has issued a lahar advisory for Kanlaon #volcano on Negros Island, warning that heavy to intense rainfall from Severe Tropical Storm Tino (#TinoPH) may generate volcanic sediment flows on the #volcano’s southern and western slopes while Alert Level 2 remains in effect.
