Warning of new Icelandic volcano eruption

NOVA - In the Path of a Killer VolcanoWarning of new Icelandic volcano eruption - mirror.co.uk: "ICELAND’s second largest volcano looks set to blow, bringing far more chaos than last year’s eruption, ­geologists warned yesterday.

Professor Pall Einarsson, of the University of Iceland, said unprecedented tremors gave good reason to worry.

He added: “There is no doubt that lava there is slowly growing.”

Bardarbunga’s last major eruption, in 1477, shot vast clouds of ash into the air and produced the biggest lava flow of the past 10,000 years.

In comparison, the volcano which brought air traffic to a standstill last year, is tiny."
