Eyjafjallajökull - The eruption of Eyjafjallajökull
The eruption of Eyjafjallajökull at Fimmvör
ðuháls Pass in Iceland
Seismic activity a few months before February 2010 was the first indicator that the volcano below Iceland’s famous Eyjafjallajökull glacier may be close to erupting. Then on March 20, at the north section of Fimmvörðuháls, the 22.5-km-long hiking trail near the glacier, the eruptions began. A fissure vent opened and lava bubbled up to the surface. A larger eruption in April 2010 centred around the glacier itself, throwing a gigantic cloud of smoke and ash into the air that disrupted air travel across Europe for six full days
Eyjafjallajökull
Eyjafjallajökull, English Eyjafjalla Glacier, is one of the smaller ice caps of Iceland, north of Skógar and west of Mýrdalsjökull. The ice cap covers the caldera of a volcano with a summit elevation of 1,651 metres. The volcano has erupted relatively frequently since the last glacial period, most recently in 2010.

Mount Tarawera
Mount Tarawera
Mount Tarawera is the volcano responsible for one of New Zealand's largest historic eruptions. Located 24 kilometres southeast of Rotorua in the North Island, it consists of a series of rhyolitic lava domes that were fissured down the middle by an explosive basaltic eruption in 1886, which killed an estimated 120 people. These fissures run for about 17 kilometres northeast-southwest.
