Massive magma surge beneath São Jorge Island causes thousands of earthquakes
🤖AI Özeti
In 2022, a significant surge of magma beneath São Jorge Island in Portugal caused thousands of earthquakes and raised concerns about a potential volcanic eruption. The magma, which ascended from over 20 kilometers deep, was found to have moved at a remarkable speed, enough to fill 32,000 Olympic swimming pools. However, it ultimately stalled 1.6 kilometers below the surface, leading researchers to classify it as a 'failed eruption.'
