Not a lot of time for me today, but needless to say, there is still a lot of action at Merapi. I’ve opened this thread after seeing the 637 comments […]

Sorry about the lack of posts today – I’ve been trying to get over a nasty headcold and my ability to concentrate on much has been less than great. So, […]
Bright sunny Wednesday here in Ohio made all the better upon hearing that the miners trapped in the Chilean mine have started to make their way – one by one […]
So, I finally got this project done! We all do a lot of webcam watching here on Eruptions. A lot of the time when a new eruption occurs, the first […]
Long week. I gave two exams, so I get to look forward to an exciting weekend of grading. Yup, that is the part of the job that is likely the […]
Now, there is a lot of articles on the new Nature paper on the Eyjafjallajökull and the signs leading up to it – but considering I’m not privy to such […]
Over on Jon Frimann’s Iceland Volcano and Earthquake Blog, there has been a lot of talk about the activity under Vatnajökull (see map below), the largest glacier on Iceland and […]
All eyes will be on Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland as it begins to show signs that an eruption might be in the works.
One of the biggest problems I find in the coverage of geologic events in the media is the relationship between cause and effect. Many times the confusion of what factors […]
Is today’s small explosion at Eyjafjallajökull a sign that the volcano is entering a new phase of activity or is it just a blip in the quiet?
Eyjafjallajökull seems to be settling into a pattern of small explosions as European airspace reopens – and see a day’s worth of eruption in less than two minutes!
I’m looking for some help – tell me about the experience of watching the Eyjafjallajökull eruption unfold on the internet.
Iceland may have ordered evacuations near Eyjafjallajökull-Fimmvörduháls after increased earthquakes underneath the Eyjafjallajokull ice cap, leading to fears of a potential jökulhlaup (volcanically-triggered volcanic flood).
As the eruption continues, the periodic ash disruptions to air travel may be the pattern for Europe over the summer.
It has now been confirmed that the Eyjafjallajökull-Fimmvörduháls eruption has opened a new fissure underneath the Eyjafjallajökull glacier. This has caused a number of volcanic-triggered floods in the area and prompted more evacuations.
I recently received some samples of the Eyjafjallajökull ash – and you’d be surprised what you can learn about an eruption from just popping the ash under a microscope.
The eruption at Eyjafjallajökull is now producing lava flows that are slowly working their way downslope as well as the strombolian summit explosions.
The Eyjafjallakokull eruption in Iceland added some explosivity to its bag of tricks, but so far it seems to be just steam-driven explosions.
The Eyjafjallajökull continues in its new explosive phase, now disrupting transatlantic air traffic routes.
Activity at Eyjafjallajökull has settled down a little bit and wind patterns have helped get most of the airspace over Europe reopened. However, people are already predicting the “summer of ash”.
The ash from the Eyjafjallajökull eruption is prompting new airspace closures over Ireland for Tuesday.
The current Eyjafjallajökull-Fimmvörduháls eruption is exactly what you might expect for an eruption in Hawai`i … in Iceland … actually, both!
Eyjafjallajökull’s continues to send ash towards Europe and more on the 30th anniversary of the St. Helens eruptions – including what might come next.
We’ve been watching it for weeks, but it looks like tonight Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland has finally erupted for the first time since 1823.
The Eyjafjallajökull eruption has become more explosive over the last day, prompting new closures of airspace over Ireland and the UK.
Large swaths of European airspace remains closed due to Eyjafjallajökull eruption – and there is no clear end in sight. UPDATE: Now with chemical composition of the ash!
KVERT may close its doors for good at the end of June, how Eyjafjallajökull did in a general (and helped Top Gear?), volcano tourism in Japan and images galore from Vanuatu.
With no clear end in sight for the Eyjafjallajökull ash, airplanes are still grounded across Europe and in Iceland, you can add severe flooding to the ash hazard as well. UPDATED!
The fallout of the Eyjafjallajökull eruption will likely be far reaching, from the politics of the EU, to climate research, to the future of air travel.
There are signs that the style of volcanism at Eyjafjallajökull has changed. Meanwhile, ash from the eruption continues to cause problems and has reached eastern North America.
