Films about volcanoes, ruptures in the crust of a planetary-mass object, such as Earth, that allow hot lava, volcanic ash, and gases to escape from a magma chamber below the surface. Subcategories This category has the following 2 subcategories, out of 2 total.
The seismic activity continued to increase and from 3–5 March, over a thousand earthquakes were measured at the epicenter of the volcano. [2] The eruption begun on 20 March 2010, about 8 km (5 mi) east of the top crater of the volcano, on Fimmvörðuháls, the high neck between Eyjafjallajökull and the neighbouring icecap, Mýrdalsjökull.

The most disruptive in recent times was the 2010 eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano, which spewed huge clouds of ash into the atmosphere and grounded flights across Europe for days because ...
The most disruptive in recent times was the 2010 eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano, which spewed huge clouds of ash into the atmosphere and led to widespread airspace closures over Europe.
Iceland is one of Earth's most volcanically active areas, with 32 active volcanic sites. It averages an eruption every four to five years — though the frequency has increased closer to every 12 ...
The density of volcanic ash varies between 700 and 1200 kg/m 3 for pumice, 2350–2450 kg/m 3 for glass shards, 2700–3300 kg/m 3 for crystals, and 2600–3200 kg/m 3 for lithic particles. [26] Since coarser and denser particles are deposited close to source, fine glass and pumice shards are relatively enriched in ash fall deposits at distal ...
The eruption was declared officially over in October 2010, after 3 months of inactivity, when snow on the glacier did not melt. From 14 to 20 April, ash from the volcanic eruption covered large areas of Northern Europe. About 20 countries closed their airspace to commercial jet traffic and it affected approximately 10 million travellers. [2]
