When the moment came, Harvard didn’t hedge or flinch—it stood up. A reminder that integrity isn’t complicated, it’s just rare.

Short update - Mt Etna, Sicily - 29.03.2025

In the last 14 days, further Strombolian episodes have occurred at the South East Crater of Mt Etna:
Accompanied by strongly increasing tremor, weak Strombolian explosions were visible at the former saddle vent of the South East Crater on the evening of 19 March. The vent located above the large southern breach continued to increase its activity until midnight and finally powerful Strombolian explosions hurled glowing material onto the southern and eastern flanks of the New South East Crater cone. Further vents on the upper north-west flank of the cone also became active. After about 02:30 the intensity of the explosions decreased again and at sunrise the activity was already significantly reduced.
A similar episode began on the morning of 24 March, but it took place in very bad weather. The fading Strombolian activity at the South East Crater could only be observed in the evening.
Another Strombolian episode is likely to have occurred on 28 March, as the tremor again increased sharply for a few hours, but dense clouds and fresh snow prevented any observation via webcams.

This INGV-webcam photo shows the Strombolian activity at the South East Crater on the morning of 20 March. The explosions that began the evening before have already weakened:

Short update - Mt Etna, Sicily - 16.03.2025

After almost 14 days of quiet gas emission at the summit craters, mild Strombolian activity suddenly began at Mt Etna's South East Crater on the evening of 15 March. During the night of 16 March, the activity increased significantly and there were some powerful Strombolian explosions. The event was accompanied by rapidly increasing tremor. On 16 March, the tremor fell back to a medium level and the eruptive activity came to an end.

This INGV-webcam photo from the late evening of 15 March shows the strombolian activity at the South East Crater. The vent, which is located above the large southern breach, throws the glowing pyroclastic material about 100 metres upwards. Individual bombs reach the south-eastern base of the cone (lower right half of the image):

Alcantara Gorge 4, Francavilla di Sicilia, Sicily, Italy

Several thousand years ago, the river bed was blocked by a lava flow from Mount Etna. As the lava was cooled much more quickly by the water than it would have done otherwise, it crystallised in the form of columns. Over the next millennia, the river naturally eroded a channel through these columns, resulting in impressive gorges and ravines, such as the Alcantara Gorges (Gole dell'Alcantara) next to Francavilla di Sicilia, where the Peloritani mountains end. – Wikipedia
