Volcanic crisis reveals coupled magma system at Santorini and Kolumbo
Volcanic crises, driven by renewed magma inflow and migration, result in surface deformation and seismicity that can provide unique insights into the structure of volcanic systems and magmatic processes. Although the highly explosive volcanoes of Santorini and Kolumbo1,2 in the Greek Aegean Sea are just 7 km apart, their potentially coupled deep magmatic feeding systems are only poorly understood3,4. The 2025 volcano–tectonic crisis of Santorini…
Chain reaction: The series of earthquakes that shook the Greek island of Santorini at the beginning of the year seems to be due to volcanic activity. Geologists in "Nature" report that a month-long shift of Magma underground has caused the swarm quake. The rising Magma collected and shifted between the reserves of the neighbouring and interconnected volcanoes Santorini and Kolumbo. The discovery could help in the future to better monitor this an…
