Volcanic eruption in Iceland, follow it live in streaming – Magazine

Volcanic activity

Icelandic scientists have placed cameras near one new volcanic eruption and anyone in the world can follow this spectacular natural phenomenon via streaming. For those who love tough names, we’re talking about one crack that opened on March 19 near the vulcano Fagradalsfjall, in southwestern Iceland, a place where there has been no volcanic activity for nearly eight hundred years.

Iceland is characterized by a marked geothermal and volcanic activity because it rises above what it is technically called hot spot, that is a point on the earth’s surface in which an anomalous ascent of the mantle upwards is recorded. In the case of this nation, located in the North Atlantic Ocean, the result is about thirty active volcanoes, whose eruptions in some cases lasted for years. Among the most famous we point out the one that occurred in 2010, on the Eyjafjoll volcano, which produced a huge column of smoke and thus caused serious problems for air navigation in Europe.

The new eruptive activity, linked to the Fagradalsfjall volcano, seems to be of minor importance and therefore immediately represented an excellent opportunity for Icelanders to organize a trip out of town and enjoy the live show. For those who cannot fly to Iceland, and since we are in a pandemic we are talking about many people, there remains the opportunity of a “visit” via streaming.
