Iceland’s south-west peninsula could see decades of instability, the Icelandic Met Office (IMO) has warned.<\/p>\n
Earthquakes and growing fears of a huge impending eruption mark the start of a new ‘eruptive cycle’, the IMO’s Matthew Roberts told the BBC.<\/p>\n
Eruptions on the Reykjanes Peninsula began again in 2021 after an 800-year hiatus, and thousands of people have now been evacuated.<\/p>\n
‘We expect to see volcanic eruptions along the peninsula, not just repeatedly in the same location,’ Dr Roberts told the British broadcaster.<\/p>\n
Instability could last decades, he added.<\/p>\n
His team made the shocking realisation last Friday that magma was coursing into the ground and fracturing rock over a nine-mile distance.<\/p>\n
The expert said the magma cut through the ground beneath Grindavik ‘almost like an underground freight train.’ Images have since shown fissures appearing in the ground, and further damage to buildings and roads is expected.<\/p>\n
Western parts of Grindavik have also sunk into the ground.<\/p>\n
