This is going to be a long thread if you post about every quake.

There have been days with literally hundreds of quakes.

Cheeky sod! Mentioned because it's one of the shallowest quakes recorded so far and also happens to be one of the strongest. But I assume you were just going for the LOLs! Back in your box please!

Pug 405, surely?

Not sure I have this right but from the twitter feeds, a live (??) graph of the caldera sinking. Last big earthquake and it sank half a meter.

Wow - M5.0 at the surface.

It's been forever since I did my GCSE geography, is the collapse of the Caldera a good thing as the magma is emptying elsewhere thus releasing pressure and the likelihood of blowing up or a bad thing (eg: Key sign of an anticipated eruption?)

Cheers in advance and thanks for the stunning images earlier as well, I was in Lanzarote last week so it's all been about volcanoes recently!

Whats the graph showing? their are three lines but I don't know what each shows?

[jmorgan]

Not sure but the overall trend it would seem is the floor depressing. Still trying to work it out fully. Apparently that big dip at the end timed with the quake at 8 this am at Mag 5?


Edit. Googl translate.

Misnunagilidi, means difference? It is grey so trend?
