Scientists decried the current media alarmism invoking the Eyjafjallajokull eruption in 2010.
A Russian-Icelandic volcanologist has exploded on Twitter, berating the news media for exaggerating her research into Iceland's Katla volcano by claiming that it was due to erupt soon, dwarfing previous major eruptions.

"Incredibly disappointing to see that The Sunday Times have gone down the route of trashy tabloids," the Russian-born, Iceland-raised and Cambridge-educated volcanologist Evgenia Ilyinskaya wrote in a lengthy Twitter tirade, excoriating the news media's coverage, following the publication of an interview she gave about her recently published research.

"This article misinforms their readers and undermines me as a scientist and a specialist in my field," Ilyinskaya added.

A sinkhole has appeared at Inskip Point beach, about three years after one appeared near the same spot
A large chunk of a popular Queensland beach has sunk into the sea leaving people fearing for the worst.

It is the second time in three years a sinkhole has appeared at Inskip Point beach. In 2015 a car, caravan, a camper trailer and tents were swallowed by the sinkhole, ABC reported.

Double Island Point Fishing Charters operator Greg Pearce was heading out on a fishing charter on Monday morning when he noticed the part of the picturesque beach missing.

The sinkhole looked about 7.5m deep, he told Daily Mail Australia.

'Yesterday looked perfectly normal, people were sunbaking. This morning when I came out you could see there'd been a fair bit of erosion.'

'The whole beach, where the day before was dry land, was gone.'
