Kilauea volcano update: Quiet at the surface, rumblings underground

This Unoccupied Aircraft Systems (UAS) photo, looking straight down into the inactive western fissure within Halema‘uma‘u at the summit of Kīlauea, was captured on Thursday, June 3, 2021. One of the objectives of the UAS mission was to get a close-up look into the fissure to see if any incandescent lava was still visible. As evidenced by the darkness within the opening atop the fissure (center of frame), no active lava was observed. For scale, the height and width of this photo each span approximately 40 m (131 ft) laterally. (USGS image & caption.)

A third week of relative quiet passes on Kīlauea, though earthquakes remain slightly elevated near the volcano's summit, upper east rift, and nearby south flank. No glow is visible from the recent eruption's West Vent, nor from the crusted lava lake surface, though temperatures from the vent and a handful of small spots “around the rim and in local cavities” remain hotter than their surroundings, though still well below molten lava temperatures according to this week's USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory update. ...

Iceland volcano update: No signs of eruption ending soon, lava field increases by the hour

Lava flows near the vent at Fagradalsfjall volcano in Iceland yesterday (image: mbl webcam)

The eruption continues to produce lava flows at constant pace, which gradually both enlarge and thicken the expanding lava flow field. Most of the lava arriving at the vent is going directly into lava tubes that bring it to the active flow margins and contribute to overall inflation of the flow field. ... Read all

Just two days since the preceding one, another paroxysm occurred at the New SE crater over last night 14-15 June 2021. As the intervals had been longer and the beginning of the most recent paroxysms was generally a longer period of fluctuating and overall increasing activity, it came a bit as a surprise. ...
