🇮🇸 🌋 #Bárðarbunga 🟩

Today's M 4.7 earthquake was in a very shallow area - the IMO reports a depth of 0 km & the accompanying earthquakes were also in a shallow area
The magma at Bárðarbunga 1st has to be 'pumped' into the chamber located about 12 km deep, & that comes from around 22 km deep ...

There’s a parade of little stars in Iceland today ... but this shallow earthquake also occurred in relative isolation, and quakes of this type are tectonic in origin.
