The new method could save lives by forecasting exactly when and where eruptions will take place.

The researcher explained this concept by comparing magma to a ‘computer code’ for volcanoes, providing crucial information on the eruption style and lava flow.

“To get these crystals out of the way, we blast the cooled melt – which is known as the rock matrix – with a laser like those used for eye surgery.The new method was tested on samples collected during the 2021 eruption on the Canary Island of La Palma, which lasted 85 days and saw much damage to the region.

“To understand how volcanic eruptions may evolve and to provide warnings and advice to people, live monitoring data is critical. “The information we gathered during this eruption could help inform volcano monitoring and hazard management in the future.”
