Over 130 earthquakes detected under large volcano in Iceland in a possible precursor to an eruption
The aviation color code over the area has been changed from green to yellow as a precaution, the Icelandic meteorological office said.
Antarctic Ice Melt May Fuel Eruptions of Hidden Volcanoes
Eruptions of subglacial volcanoes may not be visible on the surface, but they can have consequences for the ice sheet. Heat from these eruptions can increase ice melting deep below the surface and weaken the overlying ice sheet—potentially leading to a feedback loop of reduced pressure from the surface and further volcanic eruptions.
One of Iceland's largest volcanoes sees swarm of 130 earthquakes — could it be about to blow?
The Bárðarbunga volcano system was responsible for Iceland's largest eruption for 300 years back in 2014. After a recent increase in seismic activity, could it be about to erupt again?
