Everyone watches the spectacular summit eruptions of Mount Etna, but the real, developing threat is a hidden process happening deep inside. A new landmark study has revealed a terrifying feedback loop that changes everything we thought we knew about the volcano.
For years, scientists believed rising magma was pushing the volcano's massive southeastern flank, causing it to slide into the sea. The new data shows the opposite is now happening: the flank slide itself is creating a zone of weakness, a path of least resistance that is actively guiding new magma into the side of the volcano.
In this deep analysis, Geology Watch explores the 2025 study that confirms this dangerous feedback loop. We explain how the volcano's own collapse is now making low-elevation flank eruptions—like the ones in 2002 and 2018—more likely. We look back at the catastrophic 1669 eruption that destroyed parts of Catania to understand the true, devastating potential of this newly understood threat.
