🚨🌋New paper on the geochemistry and petrology of the 2022–23 Fagradalsfjall eruptions on the Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland. We study temporal variations in the magmatic plumbing system and link diffusion timescales to monitoring signals, tracing the timing of mush disaggregation and dike propagation

Amazing work by
@albertocaracciolo.bsky.social
. It's the coolest diffusion timescale work I've ever seen. You can see each eruption priming and how they are related to one another. Just super cool science.

There are many ways to study rocks up-close! 🔬💎 These thin section drawings and images are of feldspar-pyroxene xenoliths, brought up from beneath Fagradalsfjall, Iceland, by erupted basalts🌋
