The study gives the first detailed description of a volcanic eruption from Sierra Negra found on Isla Isabela - the largest of the Galápagos Islands and home to nearly 2,000 people.
The findings, published in
Nature Communications, reveal how the volcano inflated and fractured before it erupted and captures a new level of detail for any eruption from a volcano on the islands.
Networks of ground-based seismic and GPS monitoring stations, and satellites, captured data for 13 years before Sierra Negra s eruption, in June 2018.
