Support us - Help us upgrade our services!

We truly love working to bring you the latest volcano and earthquake data from around the world. Maintaining our website and our free apps does require, however, considerable time and resources.
We need financing to increase hard- and software capacity as well as support our editor team. We're aiming to achieve uninterrupted service wherever an earthquake or volcano eruption unfolds, and your donations can make it happen! Every donation will be highly appreciated. If you find the information useful and would like to support our team in integrating further features, write great content, and in upgrading our soft- and hardware, please make a donation (PayPal or Online credit card payment).

Planned features:

• Weather reports
• Tsunami alerts
• Design upgrades
• Faster responsiveness

Thanks to your past donations, these features have been added recently:

• Earthquake archive from 1900 onwards
• Additional seismic data sources
• Improved content in English

Wed, 28 Apr 2021, 08:34 08:34 AM | BY: MARTIN The graph depicts parameters of the lava flow discharge rate, lava flow area and lava volume of the current eruption site (image: IMO) The University of Iceland's Institute of Earth Sciences published the latest lava volume, lava flow area and lava flow discharge rate data of the current eruption site as a flight observation was realized yesterday. An average lava flow discharge rate at the eruption site over the past 5 days is 6 cubic meters per second, which indicates a steady flow rate. This value is similar to the long-term average (38 days) estimated to be 5.3 cubic m/s. The lava volume is approximately 18.5 million cubic meters erupted from all vents. The lava flow area covered 1.13 square km with an average thickness of 16 meters.

Fluid lava is being erupted from several vents along 3 fissure segments, and slowly forms growing shields piling up in the valley floors. ... read all Wed, 21 Apr 2021, 09:42 The University of Iceland's Institute of Earth Sciences reported a summary of eruption parameters documented since March 19, since the eruption at Fagradalsfjall one month ago. The parameters showed lava flow discharge rate, lava area, lava volume, rock geochemistry and volcanic gases. The graph below depicts an overview of the results. ... read all Mon, 19 Apr 2021, 08:37 The effusive eruption of the volcano continues. ... read all Tue, 13 Apr 2021, 10:20 Another two eruptive fissures opened today, exactly the 5th and 6th in row. The two new vents are located between the first and third, and between the third and fourth eruptive sites, respectively. ... read all Sun, 11 Apr 2021, 16:49 The Icelandic Met Office (IMO) noted that a fourth eruptive fissure opened on 9 April at about 03:00 local time. Located between the second and third eruption site, the new fissure vent started to erupt another basaltic lava flow. Preliminary measurements indicate that the lava flow's discharge rate likely will increase. The all lava flows traveling to Geldingadalir and Meradalir valley. ... read all
