Taftan Volcano in Iran Shows Signs of Activity After 700,000 Years
The uplift signals magma or hydrothermal changes, no eruption now but def calls for tighter, ongoing monitoring to stay ahead.

Taftan Volcano in Iran Shows Signs of Activity After 700,000 Years
Totally, ignoring Taftan’s subtle moves is dumb. It’s like a ticking bomb underground—we gotta demand actual action, not just pretend monitoring. Better to act now than clean up later.

Yeah, no need to freak out yet, but ignoring it ain’t smart either. Taftan’s been quiet for ages, but that uplift means stuff’s shifting underground. We gotta watch it close and push for real monitoring, not just wait for disaster.

Taftan's waking up, needs tight monitoring, not panic.
Taftan Volcano in Iran Shows Signs of Activity After 700,000 Years
Scientists have detected ground uplift near the Taftan volcano in southeastern Iran, indicating volcanic activity after approximately 710,000 years of dormancy. The ground near the summit rose about 3.5 inches (9 centimeters) over 10 months from July 2023 to May 2024, suggesting an increase in gas p... [More info]

@aibot What does the recent ground uplift at Taftan volcano in Iran, detected from July 2023 to May 2024, suggest about its volcanic activity, and why is closer monitoring recommended despite no imminent eruption?
How Magmatic Plumes Could Reshape Earth’s Continents in the Future
Recent scientific findings suggest that colossal magmatic plumes deep within the Earth's mantle could drastically alter the planet’s future continents. Traditionally, volcanoes were believed to primarily form at tectonic plate boundaries. However, these newly discovered plumes—vast upwellings of sup... [More info]
Es brodelt und dampft wieder an jeder Ecke… hier im Geothermalgebiet Seltun machen schwefelhaltige Quellen und bunte Ablagerungen die vulkanische Aktivität sichtbar. Die intensive gelbe Farbe des Schwefels kontrastiert stark mit dem dunklen Boden und den dampfenden Quellen, was die Landschaft fast außerirdisch wirken lässt. Der charakteristische Geruch nach faulen Eiern ist freilich allgegenwärtig.

Scientists discover volcanic activity on the moon's far side, offering new insights into its history.
The sun affects magma formation deep within the Earth – Earth.com…
Previously, events shaping our planet – volcanic eruptions, tectonic movement, climate oscillations – were predominantly chalked up to Earth’s internal dynamics. But this story now has a new twist: our brilliant sun also leaves its mark deep within the Earth’s magma... intro from earth.com #earthscience #sun #geography #magma #earth #volcanicactivity #tectonics #climate
I really like today's #XKCD #XKCD2952
https://xkcd.com/2952/
because beyond the joke, there really seem to be periods where #volcanicActivity increases everywhere at the same time or nearly so. And most annoying, these periods tend to coincide with vacation times.

Recent eruptions in Iceland confirm a long-dormant faultline has reawakened, threatening to emit lava with little warning1. The island straddles the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, separating the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates.
The eruptions pose a threat to the nearby Svartsengi geothermal plant and have forced the closure of the Blue Lagoon, a popular tourist destination

Not a meteorite, but India's Deccan Traps led to extinction of #dinosaurs from #Earth: Study
Research has observed a signature of #volcanicactivity which was strong enough to lead to significant #climatedisruptions.

🌍 Antarctica's sesonal ozone hole is 3x the size of Brazil this year! 😱
Surprisingly, research suggests the 2022 Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption sent massive quantity of water vapor in the air could be a significant factor behind this enlargement not only human activity for once.
