This week, multimeter wide cracks which emitted gas formed close to a town of 4,000 people. This was due to a lengthy 25 mile long dike intrusion of magma. Meanwhile, in Iceland, the eruption of the Reykjanes volcano entered its second week. And in Indonesia's Aceh province, there is potentially an ongoing intrusion of magma beneath the Bur ni Telong volcano. Today's video will discuss these stories and list the 44 volcanoes which are actively erupting around the planet through the perspective of a geologist.
