Current activity in Katla volcano is below normal background activity for this time of the year. It has been a quiet year for Katla volcano and I am not expecting any change to happen soon.

  1. Magma intrusion on the Eastern flank of Mýrdalsjökull? I wouldn’t really call it a swarm, but repeated EQs, and most of them happening at significant depth.
