Etna New SE crater paroxysm 16-17 Nov 2013: videos

Etna volcano New SE crater paroxysm #16 16-17 Nov 2013: lava fountains
As expected, another paroxysmal eruption took place at the New SE crater over night. This marks the 16th such event in 2013.
The main phase lasted about 5 hours between midnight and shortly before dawn. It consisted of violent pulsating lava fountains reaching 300-600 m height, thundering explosions of giant magma bubbles that ejected large glowing, liquid spatter to hundreds of meters distance in radial directions, and the effusion of several lava flows.

Volcanic features
A selection of photos of different features: lava flows, lava fountains, lava lakes, fumaroles and more.
VAAC
Volcanic Ash Advisory Centres: Much current eruption news is provided by the 9 Volcanic Ash Advisory Centres (VAAC) distributed around the globe. The VAACs provide a vital service for aviation safety.
Greece earthquakes
Latest quakes in Greece: Greece has a lot of earthquake activity, but most of them occur around the margin of the Aegean microplate. The Cycladic islands are located in its center and therefore seismically comparably quiet.
Ethiopia
Ethiopia and the Danakil: Ethiopia is a very diverse and beautiful country. Thanks to our numerous expeditions to Erta Ale and Dallol and beyond, we have an extensive collection of images showing the volcano's lava lake, the desert, the colorful hot springs of Dallol, the vast salt lakes, camel caravans and more.
