GSA Annual Meeting Day 1 Recap: Icelandic Volcanoes
By Erik Klemetti10.28.1312:04 PM

...A talk by Tamara Carley on Icelandic zircon suggested that they aren’t really like zircon in other parts of the world, likely due to two main factors. First, they seem to have a different Hf isotopic composition, which might be due to a different kind of mantle underneath Iceland. Oddly, the composition of this mantle looks to be changing over the last 20 million years. Second, their oxygen isotopic composition supports the idea that all the magma coming up under Iceland eats a lot of hydrothermally-altered crust (not surprising with abundant magmatism and water)...

October 28 11:00 h (October 28 16:00 GMT)

In the last 24 hours the monitoring system of Popocatepetl volcano recorded 11 low-to-moderate-intensity exhalations. The most important were registered today at 07:12 h (see image 1), (see image 2), (see image 3) and 09:23 h (see image 4), (see image 5), (see image 6). They were accompanied by the emission of a column of ash that reached more than 1 km above the crater and were dispersed to the west by winds:

Additionally, today at 08:07 h there was a volcanotectonic event of 2.5 magnitude.

Overnight, incandescence was observed on the crater increased when the major exhalations (see image 7).

When reading the Colombian press, we learn that a new system of tunnels at the Alto de La Línea mountain pass in Colombia’s central Cordillera mountain range will open up a key logistics route for this country and neighbouring Venezuela. The problem is that this infrastructure will be close to the Machín, a potentially active volcano.
The gigantic project includes two main tunnels, 8.8 and 8.6 km long, as well as 21 short tunnels and 29 viaducts that will total 6.8 km in length. The first of the main tunnels, which will be the longest road tunnel in Latin America, is to be completed by mid-2014...
According to Colombian volcanologists, even the smallest eruption by Machín would be larger than the eruption of the Nevado del Ruiz volcano, 45 km to the northeast, which in November 1985 destroyed the town of Armero, killing 22,000 of its 28,000 inhabitants and leaving over 5,000 injured. Said one scientist: “Machín’s normal eruptions can cover several cubic kilometres. And the big ones have been approximately 20 km3.” Should a major eruption occur, one million people might be directly affected with the permanent relocation of the population from the area at risk. The western and central parts of the country would be completely cut off. Three important farming areas would be destroyed: Cajamarca; part of the province of Quindío; and the Tolima valley irrigation district. Nearby towns would be covered with a layer of ash at least half a metre thick.
The authorities are apparently hoping the volcano will be calm for many more years. It’s a bit like playing Russian roulette, with a Sword of Damocles above their heads...

"Yellowstone's Killer Hazard: Earthquakes, Not EruptionsBy Becky Oskin, Staff Writer | October 28, 2013 12:01pm ET

DENVER — A supervolcano blasting Yellowstone National Park to smithereens may capture the imagination, but the region's real risk comes from earthquakes, researchers reported here Sunday (Oct. 27) at the Geological Society of America's annual meeting...
Smith said the probability of another magnitude-7 or larger earthquake on one of the major faults near Yellowstone is 0.125 percent. The number reflects the chance an earthquake will occur in any given year, based on past records.
The annual probability of a Yellowstone supereruption is a much smaller 0.00014 percent, Smith said..."


well, well well...but read further:

" Yellowstone's magma chamber isn't just a giant pool of molten rock. What's called a partial melt — small interconnected zones of magma filling fractures and small spaces — fills 6 to 7 percent of the crust beneath Yellowstone, Smith said Sunday. "The Yellowstone crustal reservoir is 250 percent larger than previously imaged," Smith said.

The actual volume of molten magma is somewhere between 200 to 600 cubic km (50 to 145 cubic miles), he said.

The reservoir is shaped like a dog's knobby chew toy, with one end about 9 miles (15 km) below the center of Yellowstone National Park, and the other rising to the northeast, about 3 miles (5 km) below the surface.

The shallow end extends 12 miles (20 km) northeast of the caldera rim created 640,000 years ago, Smith said. That distance matches the total tectonic drift of the North American plate over the Yellowstone mantle plume since that time, he said."
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 49049867

...The images show that the reservoir resembles a 4,000-cubic-kilometre underground sponge, with 6–8% of it filled with molten rock. It underlies most of the Yellowstone caldera and extends a little beyond it to the northeast...

only if there will put special pumps for direct pumping of magma from the mantle , but in EU plans itself so far seems to be no chuckle

but explosive collapse of the body (especially interesting if in the sea, as there has previously been the case in the past) with the formation of a new pretty caldera - it's much more than a working version.

GSA Annual Meeting Day 1 Recap: Icelandic Volcanoes
By Erik Klemetti 10.28.1312:04 PM


...Olgeir Sigmudsson followed Carley’s talk up with a look at the origin of magma from the 2010 eruption of Eyjafjallajokull. What I found most fascinating was that the volcano erupted 8 different compositional varieties of magma during the 2010 activity.
He postulates that the magma erupted was produced by prolonged cooling of magma under Eyjafjallajokull and then new basaltic magma mixed with this silicic magma in differing proportions during the course of the eruption.
This generated the wide suite of magma erupted. Eyjafjallajokull is different than some of the other larger volcanoes on the main ridge axis in Iceland (like Askja) as it only generates small volumes of magma that don’t interact much with the Icelandic crust before erupting...

Interesting. Is there any consensus on how juvenile the basaltic material erupted at Fimmvorouhals was? Was it pretty much entirely unmixed, direct from a deep source, giving us a lucky peek at the basaltic 'trigger' magma?


Fimmvorouhals
[link to en.wikipedia.org]
...is the area between the glaciers Eyjafjallajokull and Myrdalsjokull in southern Iceland...


Fimmvorouhals eruption on March 20th 2010



[link to www.youtube.com]
...Seeing a volcanic eruption up close like that is unbelievable, and I feel very lucky that I was able to see it both during the day and the night :)
It's so powerful and loud, and incredibly beautiful and mesmerizing
The eruption lasted until April 13th, and a day later the angry eruption in Eyjafjallajokull started.
