An explosive #eruption of Hayli Gubbi #volcano, located SE of Erta'Ale in the Afar Rift (Ethiopia), began at ~08:30 UTC on Nov 23. Eruption onset was fortuitously captured by a @planet.com overpass at 08:31 UTC. Hayli Gubbi has no record of Holocene eruptions. Toulouse VAAC reporting ash to ~15 km.

Cross-scale strain analysis in the Afar rift (East Africa) from automatic fault mapping and geodesy
Abstract. The formation of continental rift systems is characterised by the interplay of magmatic and tectonic processes. Their evolution involves a wide range of timescales, from centennial scales of...
Our new study on @egu.eu SE combines automatic fault mapping, geodesy and rock dating to reconstruct the tectonic and magmatic evolution of the Afar rift during the last 4.5 Myrs. @sasbrune.bsky.social @sorcerinsar.bsky.social @derekkeir.bsky.social @gimmi-p.bsky.social @earth-science.bsky.social
