Eruption in Iceland coming to an end

1.6.2010

There is still a minimal unrest being detected in the glacier. Developments will be monitored closely in the coming days. Geophysicist Páll Einarsson told mbl.is that volcanic eruptions usually wind down gradually before coming to a definite end.
The volcanic unrest in Eyjafjallajökull stopped rather abruptly, which is why it is wise to wait with declaring that the eruption is over, Einarsson explained.
When asked about a possible eruption in the neighboring volcano Katla, which is located below the Mýrdalsjökull icecap, Einarsson said there are no indications of an eruption there.
