Surto de magma provoca 28.000 sismos perto de Santorini

Um grande influxo de magma sob Santorini causou mais de 28.000 sismos no início de 2025, segundo um novo estudo. Os investigadores usaram IA avançada e sensores do fundo marinho para rastrear o movimento da rocha derretida. As descobertas revelam uma ligação previamente desconhecida entre Santorini e o vulcão submarino próximo Kolumbo.

No final de janeiro de 2025, a ilha de Santorini e áreas circundantes no mar Egeu experimentaram intensa atividade sísmica, com mais de 28.000 sismos registados, alguns superiores a 5.0 de magnitude. Cientistas do GFZ Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences e GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, juntamente com parceiros internacionais, detalharam a causa num estudo publicado em Nature.

A magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck waters near Bitung, North Sulawesi, on Thursday morning at 06:48 Wita, triggering an early tsunami warning for North Sulawesi and North Maluku. Strong shaking was felt as far as Manado and Gorontalo, resulting in two casualties in Manado. BMKG confirmed the location at 1.25 N, 126.27 E, depth 62 km.

A massive body of magma surged upward beneath São Jorge Island in Portugal's Azores archipelago in March 2022, triggering thousands of earthquakes before stalling underground. The event, detailed in a new study, represented a failed eruption that raised but ultimately eased fears of volcanic activity.

Researchers have found that the magma reservoir beneath Japan's Kikai caldera, site of the Holocene's largest eruption 7,300 years ago, is refilling with newly injected magma. Using underwater seismic imaging, a team led by Kobe University's Nobukazu Seama mapped the reservoir and linked it to the ancient event. The discovery offers insights into how such systems rebuild after massive eruptions.
