Iceland: IMO Volcano Eruption Update 16/9/2025, Svartsengi Volcanic System, Reykjanes Peninsula
   • Iceland: IMO Volcano Eruption Update 16/9/...  

Risk assessment unchanged but will be reassessed after a week.
Landrise and magma accumulation under Svartsengi continues. 
About 8-9 million cubic meters of magma have accumulated under Svartsengi since the last eruption. 
The likelihood of a new event increases as around 11 million cubic meters have accumulated by the end of September. However, considerable uncertainty remains. 
The risk assessment card remains unchanged but will be reviewed next week. 
Landrise and magma accumulation
Measurements show that magma accumulation under Svartsengi continues at a similar rate as recently. Model results estimate that about 8-9 million cubic meters of magma have accumulated since the last eruption, which began on July 16. The amount that flowed from the magma accumulation area in that eruption was estimated at about 12 million cubic meters. 

Likely a new eruption 

Based on previous events in the Sundhnúk crater series, the likelihood of a new magma flow and eruption increases when the same amount of magma has accumulated under Svartsengi as erupted in the last event. If the accumulation rate remains unchanged, this amount will be reached in the second half of this month, as stated in the last update of the hazard assessment map. However, experience shows that the threshold for when an event begins varies between eruptions. In some cases, an eruption has started with a smaller amount, in other cases a larger amount has been required. Therefore, it is assumed that an eruption can begin at any time, even if the magma accumulation is still below 12 million cubic meters. 

Risk assessment

The hazard assessment map will remain unchanged this time, but given that the same amount of magma as was released in the last eruption will be reached by the end of September, the hazard assessment map will be revised next week. It is therefore valid from September 16 to September 23.
I am a geologist by profession and training. This is an educational channel devoted mostly to spread of geological knowledge and education. I work hard to make the material you see presented to you in this short concise videos. Please support this channel by "LIKE"ing and sharing the videos and help them to be seen. I am making many videos every month. It is a constant stream of unique graphics and presentations of scientifically accurate and timely information about volcanoes. I am here for you to report everything about this fascinating subject. This is my expertise, my professional training, my education and my job.
Please if you feel you like them, support my work by using the Super Thanks and membership of the channel. Thank you.
Some of the images are produced by recent advances in Artificial Intelligence. They are just pretty pictures that AI is producing when a text describes a volcanic event or geological phenomenon for them. They are by no means represent the reality and are used here only for their graphical merits.

A great source for live views of the volcano in Reykjanes Peninsula is the amazing mbl.is YouTube channel. Please SUBSCRIBE and like and share their live YouTube camera views here to help their work be known. Iceland depends on tourism and beyond the Reykjanes Peninsula there are plenty of sites with world class tourist attractions. If you want to help Iceland, plan a holiday to this amazing country. Icelandic people are kind and welcoming people and their food and cousin is second to none. The clip of starting moments of the eruption is courtesy of mbl Iceland.
