Many volcanoes have captured the attention of fanatics such as us, we often pick favorites depending on our internal biases. After all volcanoes provide varieties of intrigue to curious minds, from the mechanics of explosions surpassing the greatest of bombs, million years long eruptions that cover entire regions in magma, to simpler things such as…
2 years ago, I wrote an article detailing my selections for the most likely CFE candidates and a lot has changed. My opinion on Katla has changed and I do think an eruption in the near future more likely than not thanks to recent information from recent studies. We’ve gained insight into the magmatic structure…
Over the past 6 years I’ve watched Chiles-Cerro Negro go through 4 different phases of unrest. Like a toxic lover, no matter how much I try, I can’t shake this volcano. I honestly thought I was going somewhere with Grimsvotn and Iwo-Jima but no. Grimsvotn is stable in the sense that nothing has really changed…

This volcano plays many characters, producing everything from expansive lava flows to basaltic Plinian eruptions but mostly mundane lava flows or irrelevant explosions For me, Grimsvotn holds a special place among other volcanoes, ranking among my…

A lot of the excitement comes from the fact that no one truly knows exactly what is going to happen during the forecasting portion of an upcoming disaster.…
