The reason? Warming waters are pushing their favourite food, krill, further away, leaving the penguins with a tough choice: follow it away from suitable breeding grounds, or go hungry. 🔗 Read the full story: www.bas.ac.uk/news/penguin... 🧵2/2

On the right side of the image, a large, well-defined circular impact crater stands out, featuring steep, shadow-cast inner walls and a dark green floor. To the left, a long, deeply carved, winding canyon river system cuts vertically through the terrain with prominent shadows, resembling a jagged lightning bolt or deep crack in the earth. The bottom-right corner includes a small watermark that reads "HydrologyNL".

🇮🇸 🌋 Reykjanes - Svartsengi 🟨 The Veðurstofa Íslands has uploaded an 🆕 update Situation on the Reykjanes Peninsula Land uplift and magma accumulation continue ◉ Slow ground uplift continues at Svartsengi ◉ Seismic activity remains low 1/2

Deformation measurements show continued ground uplift in the Svartsengi area. Approximately four centimetres of uplift have been measured over the past three months, with the rate remaining relatively steady throughout this period.

The uplift indicates that pressure is still building at a depth of several kilometres.

The InSAR image above shows continued ground uplift at Svartsengi between 20 July and 13 September 2026. InSAR uses comparisons of satellite radar images to measure ground deformation. The black outlines mark lava fields formed during previous eruptions along the Sundhnúkur crater row and at Fagradalsfjall.

The image was produced using data from the TerraSAR-X satellite. The German Aerospace Center (DLR) provided the data through the GEO-GSNL initiative, supported by CEOS, an international forum for satellite-based Earth observation.

Magma accumulation can continue for a long time
There is no evidence that the eruptive episode along the Sundhnúkur crater row is coming to an end. The Reykjanes-Svartsengi volcanic system remains at alert level 2, “Substantially increased activity” (orange).

Before the eruptive episode can be declared over, monitoring data must show clear evidence of this over an extended period.

The Volcano Alert Level System (VALS) is used by the Icelandic Meteorological Office to communicate information about activity in Iceland's volcanic systems.

The figure below shows the signs required before the alert level can be lowered. Once the volcanic system has been returned to alert level 0, the eruptive episode can be considered over.

Even if magma accumulation stops for several months, it may resume beneath Svartsengi. Eruptive episodes on the Reykjanes Peninsula can last for decades or centuries, with intervals between individual events. A long interval between eruptions therefore does not indicate that activity has ended
