2026: New ยฃ3.7M study to improve detection of dangerous volcanic eruptions | Cabot Institute for the Environment | University of Bristol

Millions of people live within 100km of a volcano that has had at least one significant eruption. Yet the warning signs that signal a shift from mild activity to a high-impact eruption remain unclear. A major new ยฃ3.7M research project aims to change this... www.bristol.ac.uk/cabot/news/2...

Range offsets of the Myanmar earthquake from Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1C data. Positive displacements are in the line-of-sight (LOS) direction.

Sentinel-1C(!) acquired new SAR data over Myanmar yesterday. Here are the azimuth and range offsets. Not particularly unexpected (right-lateral slip, 400 km+ long rupture), given earlier InSAR/image offset results, but surprisingly clean, given S1C is not out of its commissioning phase.

A radar interferogram covering 17.5 to 23.5 degrees north, in Myanmar. Tightly clustered fringes delimit the likely 2025 earthquake rupture zone.

The whole #MyanmarEarthquake rupture in one interferogram! This is three consecutive wide swath frames of ALOS-2 data, provided by JAXA through agreement with NASA. The line-of-sight (LOS) is ~perpendicular to fault strike, so most of what you see is vertical motion at bends and steps of the fault.

The descending interferogram from Sentinel-1 (20250319-20250331) suggests that the earthquake rupture extends to 18.7 degrees and may have reached further south. More data in the next few days will reveal the full length of the rupture from this devastating earthquake.

A historical seismicity map shows several #earthquakes of similar size to todayโ€™s M7.7 in Myanmar occurred in the region in the early 20th century, but this section of the Sagaing fault probably hasnโ€™t ruptured since 1839 ๐Ÿงชโš’๏ธ

Looking at the historical earthquake map and the preliminary USGS slip model below, it seems today's large earthquake filled partly the gap between 20 and 22 degrees North latitude.

For the non-seismologists in the crowd, a moment tensor is a representation of the forces at work on the fault. They tell us how the fault actually moved at depth (was motion up the face of the fault? Did things move down? Or side-to-side?)
