- Reposted by Alessandro La RosaNew paper by Marella Parnas coming out soon re-analysing the 1995 Aigion earthquake of the Corinth rift using InSAR and teleseismic data, and coming up with a new interpretation of the likely causative fault. @sorcerinsar.bsky.social @alarosa.bsky.social www.frontiersin.org/journals/ear...
- Following the #HayliGubbi eruption, our paper on the Erta Ale dike of Jun-Jul is finally out. InSAR, optical data and seismicity showed the temporal evolution of the intrusion and the interaction of magmatic sources, including a sill inflation in Hayli Gubbi. @earth-science.bsky.social #geoscience
- Errata: diking occurred in July-August 2025
- The #HayliGubbi eruption came after a period of unrest that started in June-July 2025 with a large dike intrusion in the southern sector of the Erta Ale rift. Our InSAR study will be out soon but you can have a summary at the link below. @earth-science.bsky.social #geoscience

- Our new study on @egu.eu SE combines automatic fault mapping, geodesy and rock dating to reconstruct the tectonic and magmatic evolution of the Afar rift during the last 4.5 Myrs. @sasbrune.bsky.social @sorcerinsar.bsky.social @derekkeir.bsky.social @gimmi-p.bsky.social @earth-science.bsky.social
- First day passed at LASI VII in Iceland, with many Inspiring talks and posters on magmatic intrusions in various geodynamic contexts! We presented our 2024 natcomm study on the pressurizion of a deep sill network in the Afar rift @sorcerinsar.bsky.social @derekkeir.bsky.social

- Reposted by Alessandro La RosaM6.0 just now in Ethiopia, highest magnitude #earthquake in the swarm up until this point in time. The moment tensor only shows 12% double couple, which commonly means that the earthquake is not caused by rupture on a single flat fault plane (or it could just be poorly determined). 🌋🧪⚒️

- Reposted by Alessandro La RosaEthiopia: The Disaster Risk Management Commission with the Ethiopia military has evacuated over 20,500 people from earthquake-prone areas in Afar and Oromia. In Afar, 7,000 of 15,000 at-risk residents in Awash Fentale Woreda and 6,223 of 20,000 in Dulecha Woreda have been relocated.
