Eruption overdue: Supervolcano in Italy is swelling, steaming heavily and spewing more gas. New swarm earthquakes accompany the uplift of the area to new record heights.
And the craters seem to be steaming like never before. In December it was only 4,000 tons per day. “These values are comparable to those found in the plume of active volcanoes with ongoing degassing,” says INGV. Scientists believe the supervolcano's eruption is repeatedly and repeatedly claimed hundreds of lives.
