Discover how science unravels Kolumbo's secrets near #Santorini, with its deadly eruption history—read more! #Greece #Earthquake #σεισμος #Volcano ➡️ Summary of SANTORY Research on Kolumbo Volcano For several years, the international SANTORY research program has been closely monitoring Kolumbo, a submarine volcano 7 km northeast of Santorini, known as one of the Mediterranean's most active. Led by Professor Paraskevi Nomikou from the University of Athens, the team includes experts from various prestigious institutions across Greece, Italy, Germany, and the USA. ➡️ Key Findings and Activities: - Seismic Activity: Recent tremors in Santorini's waters have put Kolumbo under the spotlight, recalling its last deadly eruption in 1650 AD which led to toxic gas emissions and a devastating tsunami. - Innovative Monitoring: Employing cutting-edge technology, the SANTORY team has installed sensors around the volcano or in the water column to measure numerous parameters like temperature, pH, and gas concentrations. They've also used cameras for visual documentation, including innovative imaging techniques. - Microbial Research: Water samples from the crater have been analyzed for hyper-resistant bacteria, which could have significant biotechnology applications. - Data Collection: Continuous data over time has provided insights into Kolumbo's daily activity, allowing scientists to detect any unusual changes that might signal an increase in volcanic activity. - Environmental Impact: The program's metagenomic analyses have shed light on local microbial communities, contributing to understanding the carbon and methane cycles in this unique environment. ➡️ Why It Matters: The ongoing surveillance of Kolumbo is vital for assessing volcanic risks, protecting nearby populations, and advancing our understanding of submarine volcanic systems globally. ➡️ Read more about this groundbreaking research here:
