📢New in @ScienceMagazine Tracking Magma Intrusion by the Minute using Fiber-Optic Sensing 🌋 We show a revolutionary way to monitor volcanoes and forecast eruptions with fiber-optic sensing 🔗 Read science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… #Iceland #Volcanoes #fiberoptics

🚨 Just published in Earth and Planetary Science Letters! In collaboration with Luyuan and @EliasHeimisson, we explored how poroelasticity affects rupture propagation across fault stepovers and its impact on earthquake hazards. Link: doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl…









We are recruiting a PhD student in Geophysics at the University of Iceland! Engage in innovative research on volcano-tectonic seismicity right where the action is happening. Also, you'll have the potential to do exciting fieldwork. Apply by March 15, 2024. euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/193522

After 3 years and 5 eruptions, we finally have our first casualty. RIP to the Melhóll (MELH/meh) seismic station, which has faithfully recorded all the action on the #Reykjanes Peninsula since it was installed in June 2020. All data was safely telemetered up to its dying moments
