DID YOU KNOW that Nahanni National Park was recognized as the Canada’s first natural UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978? Found along the South Nahanni River (Northwest Territories), this park is one of the most spectacular landscapes in North America. 1/2 📸 ©@spectacularNWT

New paper! How accurate are hindcasts of explosive eruptions? In this new work from Stix et al, these authors assess the use of tremor as an eruption forecasting tool. More here 👇 doi.org/10.30909/vol.07.01.1…

About the best video I've ever seen. My favourite thing is how the fissure opens up along sections of a pre-existing fissure separated by transform faults. Absolutely stunning.

A mostly good @BBCNews article about concerning #volcanic unrest in Iceland...but alarming use of clumsy Google translate from the @Vedurstofan Icelandic news story. The kvikugang is called a magma tunnel, but to geologists the term is a dyke in English! bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-…

What geologic hazard is most likely to occur in the Yellowstone region on human timescales? Spoiler alert: It has nothing to do with volcanoes! Find out in this month's update from the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory. youtu.be/8YwqId_b9Fc

Looking to hike to the volcanic eruption in iceland?!? 🌋Consider a guided hike to stay safe, led by my friend Erla. She took me on an epic hike up my first volcano, Hekla, with the outdoor club at university in 2013! 👇 fjallhalla.is/about-us/

It's said every eruption is an individual and that is certainly true of Fagradalsfjall 2023. It's producing the more severe, most nasty #AirPollution cloud I've experienced but not because of volcanic gases 🧵

#DYK that #Canada is home to active volcanoes? Exclusively located in #Yukon and #BC, they are little-known and often seen as regular mountains, such as the stratovolcano Mount Garibaldi! These volcanoes are monitored by a regional seismic network that ensures Canadians’ safety.🌋
