- Volcano Eyjafjallajokull - Eyjafjallajökull is a well-known glacier and volcano located in southern Iceland. The glacier itself covers an area of about 100 square kilometers (39 square miles) and sits atop a volcano with the same name. The name “Eyjafjallajökull” translates to “Island Mountain Glacier” in Icelandic, referencing its proximity to the Westman Islands and its mountainous terrain.
The Eyjafjallajökull volcano gained international attention in April 2010 when it erupted, causing significant disruption to air travel across Europe due to the vast ash cloud it produced. This eruption was notable not only for its impact on air traffic but also for the impressive volcanic activity and ash plumes that were visible for miles around.
The volcano’s summit reaches approximately 1,651 meters (5,417 feet) above sea level. The 2010 eruption was preceded by seismic activity and smaller eruptions, leading to a major explosive event that lasted for several weeks
