    The #Volcanic Isles . A brief history of volcanism across The British Isles.

    Quite pleased with how this one turned out.

    Location of volcanoes taken from wikipedia (spotted a mistake and got to make an edit to wikipedia in the process); fault lines from the #BGS 625k bedrock dataset and the IE GSI 500k Bedrock Geology for Ireland. Font: League-Spartan by the League of Moveable Type.

    #requests, #pandas and #geopandas for scraping and wrangling.#scipy for making the proximity surface (that's the colour scheme), #matplotlib for plotting. With all labeling done manually in #inkscape.

    EDIT: I've been kindly and helpfully informed that (a) Ben Nevis' age is closer to 399 Ma; (b) some are missing; (c) others perhaps shouldn't be there; (d) it's complicated. So, maybe don't use this map to make any strategic decisions.

    “Highlights:
    • A novel method for detecting geothermal components from solar energy dominated LST.
    • Using LST time series to eliminate temporal variant solar energy input.
    • Uncertainty in anomaly identification quantified by probability measure.
    • Capable of revealing LST anomalies caused by geothermal, anthropogenic and surface processes..."

  4. RT by @CopernicusEU: The latest #eruption in #Iceland has produced the largest #volcanic SO₂ cloud measured to date in the 2023-24 #Reykjanes Fires, consistent with reports that it is the most intense episode so far.
    Data: @CopernicusEU #Sentinel5P #TROPOMI.
