Thermal bands (B8A, B11, B12) extracted in order to detect heat anomaly under sea surface (image: Sentinel-2, processed by Martin Kelko)

The eruption continues.

The latest satellite acquisition from 4 June over the area indicates the ongoing activity associated to frequent gas plumes and thermal anomaly under sea surface.
