Iceland Volcano Eruptions

 Iceland Volcano Eruptions:

As of today, February 10, 2024, the ongoing series of volcanic eruptions in Iceland, which began in December 2023, are officially over. The most recent eruption occurred on February 8th near the town of Grindavík on the Reykjanes Peninsula. The eruptions were relatively small, categorized as effusive eruptions, meaning they were characterized by the flowing of lava rather than explosive ash plumes.

These eruptions were the sixth outbreak on the Reykjanes peninsula since 2021, and mark the beginning of a new geological era for the southwestern peninsula, which had been dormant for the past 800 years.
