- louthy 2y ago> Sean Shawn, my mistake!
- eigenform 2y agoShawn mentions lack of observed ground deformation, but maybe he means near Kolumbo? There's a note[^1] on the EMSC site that has some figures for deformation at stations on Santorini, and it seems like it has been deflating while all this seismic expression is wandering northeastward? (I am not a geophysicist) [^1]: https://www.emsc-csem.org/Files/event/1765158/20250213b-santorini-seismo-volcanic-crisis-gnss.pdf https://www.emsc-csem.org/Files/event/1765158/20250213b-sant...
- louthy 2y ago> lack of observed ground deformation I think he replies to a comment where he says “lack of significant ground deformation”. He also mention the natural up/down movement of normal faults being a cause of ground deformation. I’m sure if there’s new information that he’ll do a follow up. I’ve followed his channel for a while now — I’m not a geologist or geophysicist either — but I find his knowledge and careful and thoughtful analysis to be exceptional.
