Hello!

After a long period of absence to care for a sick relative, we are back.

A lot has happened in the interim in terms of volcanic and seismic activity globally. So a lot of catching up to do.

We are starting by looking at Iceland. The Icelandic Met Office (IMO) (https://en.vedur.is/) has changed its earthquake monitoring system from its SIL system to SeisComP to make monitoring easier. In the process they have updated Skjálftalísa (https://skjalftalisa.vedur.is/) which we use to download earthquake data. This makes it easier to select data. It also has a 3D plotting capability for those who do not have the time or software to be able to do it themselves. Our thanks to IMO.

Our new post on the seismic activity on the Reykjanes Peninsula will be up shortly.
