Earthquake data could hold the key to predicting Mount Etna’s next eruption, study finds

Mount Etna is one of the world’s most active volcanoes. Located on the east coast of Sicily, it erupts multiple times per year - most recently in June this year.

While it is somewhat possible to predict eruptions, a new study publishedin Science Advances proposes a new prediction method that analyses earthquake patterns. It could allow for earlier and better preparedness.
