Update on activity Eyjafjallajökull


Assessment - 02 May 2010 09:00




Plume elevations and magma discharge levels remain similar to the preceding eight days of activity. Lava continues to flow north from the eruption site and down the Gígjökull glacier. Today’s explosive activity and ash production represents a fraction of conditions during the height of the eruption (14-17 April). Presently, there are no measurable indications that the eruption is about to end.
