Earthquakes were very much concentrated on the intra-caldera shallow trapdoor fault system. Through the inflation-deflation syscle, the 'sinuous ridge' within the caldera grew by 1.5 m relative to the caldera floor Retweeted by DIAS Geophysics
Have a look at our latest Galapagos research out now in @NatureComms! Great work by @AndyFBell leading this multidisciplinary effort and putting everything together! nature.com/articles/s4146… Retweeted by DIAS Geophysics
The #Galapagos volcanoes have done it again: #SierraNegra2018, an eruption featuring amazing deformation, seismicity and everything else. I contributed with #InSAR data but @AndyFBell @volcano_dr @IGecuador et al. have brought it home! nature.com/articles/s4146… Retweeted by DIAS Geophysics

Happy to see our research #SierraNegra2018 eruption published. Glad to work with @AndyFBell @IGecuador @dias_geophysics @Volcan_Ecuador @sarahjjjaye @marco_bagnardi @MikeJ_Stock @hernarado nature.com/articles/s4146… Retweeted by DIAS Geophysics
New paper out today in @NatureComms on the Sierra Negra volcano, Galápagos. It was wonderful to be part of such a great multidisciplinary team including @AndyFBell @volcano_dr @IGecuador @marco_bagnardi @Volcan_Ecuador @hernarado @sarahjjjaye @MikeJ_Stock nature.com/articles/s4146…
Not all volcanoes are created equal!🌋New multidisciplinary paper out today showing that pre-eruptive processes in Galapagos are very different to Iceland/Hawaii!

Dr Melissa A Pfeffer & Dr Sara Barsotti from IMO carried out gas measurements in Reykjanes. Despite the ongoing seismic swarm for the last 24 hrs, no increase of gases was detected. Another field campaign is being prepared & the area is under strong surveillance. #EUROVOLC Retweeted by DIAS Geophysics
