News of Katla

-

 



A swarm of small earthquakes has been occurring beneath Mýrdalsjökull glacier covering Katla volcano over the past 2 days.

The most of events have been registered with a magnitude less than M 3 and only a couple of them exceeded M 3.
From the embedded image below, the current seismic activity has been taking place in the proximity of ice cauldrons numbered 10, 11 and 12.
In case a glacial flood will happen, the meltwater makes it into Múlakvísl river.
The seismic swarm is located in an area of persistent geothermal heat sources that leads to melting overlying ice and subsiding the ice sheet.

Important year based on some earthquake events between 2010 and 2011; Feb27,2010>Chile Earthquake_M8.8-06:34 UTC Sep3,2010>New Zealand Earthquake_M7.2-16:35 UTC March11,2011>Japan Earthquake_M9.0-05:46 UTC Sep15,2011>Fiji Earthquake_M7.3-19:30 UTC As maybe more interesting,amazing correlation as time of events that 4522 hours and one minute between Chile and New Zealand Earthquakes 4525 hours and 11 minutes between New Zealand and Japan Earthquakes 4525 hours and 44 minutes between Japan and Fiji Earthquakes Yes,we are witnessing a "perfect equidistance"  as 188 days ~!

Orfeus as European Infrastructure for Seismic Waveform in European Observating System on AlpArray Initiative is knowing on Seismologic Infrastructure Studies  into European Hinterland. New vision that shortly,expressing as "Synergy" With this aim,widening of organisational structure is basepoint.For this,emphasizing to powerfulness of a "mass approach" on observing of European Hinterland on opensource programming language As a conclusion of efforts in this field,a "Data Network Structure System" on Obspy&Python Programming Capabilities have developed. Shortly,reading on internet network of basedata &carrying-out by user of some data process steps.And next,presenting on some types of some conclusions... So,summarying as "Platform Structure" On earthquake researches,providing to international a "synergy" on ground researches besides earthquake via user networks at hinterland countries for establishing as powerful of inf
