Submarine ash megabed fed by far-traveled, shoreline-crossing pyroclastic currents from a large explosive volcanic eruption
Volcanic ash from an eruption in Greece poured into the sea, forming a bed 200 m thick in a submarine basin far from the volcano.

An unexpected discovery of IODP Exp 398! 200 m of ash from the Kos Plateau Tuff eruption buried in the basins around Santorini, read how it got there in our new paper in Science Advances 🌋

Very happy to share our latest paper on Kolumbo volcano! 🌋This research was only possible thanks to IODP, which has allowed for new insights into this highly hazardous volcano!
🚨Check out our new IODP paper on Kolumbo Volcano in Greece. Despite being one of Europe's most dangerous volcanoes not much is known about its eruptive history. The paper led by @abigaillily.bsky.social adds important insight into the Kolumbo-Santorini system

If you’re attending #EGU26 and are working on caldera volcanism consider submitting an abstract to GMPV7.5! Looking forward to convening this session! 🌋

The second paper from my post doc working on IODP Exp 398 is out! We show regional rifting has modulated volcanic processes at Santorini Volcano with rapid rifting resulting in a phase of highly explosive caldera forming eruptions! 🌋

The Kos Plateau Tuff eruption of the Kos Volcano 161,000 years ago poured pyroclastic flows into the Aegean Sea. IODP #exp398 found the submarine products of the eruption 200 to 300 m thick, 140 km away from source NE of Santorini.

@abigaillily.bsky.social & Exp398 discovered a 200m thick volcanic ash layer >140km from its source. The discovery shows that large eruptions in marine environments can remodel the seafloor & regionally destroy marine life during catastrophic events.

And there we have it. The 8th eruption from the #Svartsengi magma reservoir. By far the smallest one in terms of eruption time, area and volume.
Updated lava comparison map that also includes the #Fagradalsfjall eruptions.

Expedition 398 E&O Officer Susan just published a book on the amazing cores we drilled in and around Santorini.
It's great for anyone (layperson to expert) who wants to learn about these stunning cores.

It's so hard out there right now, especially for early career scientists. Publishing expectations have never been higher, and it's taking a year or more for papers to go through peer review, largely because of these delays. I know things are hard, but if you're publishing, you should be reviewing.
