-area. This corresponds to a magma discharge
of 300 to 500 cubic metres per second. From observations yesterday evening, the volume of erupted
lava is between 16 and 25 million cubic metres.
The eruption has not created any ash-fall.
Gas and steam rises to a couple of hundred metres above the eruption site, extending up to 1,200 m
downwind.
In connection with the FUTUREVOLC project, a gas

the IMO has for some time worked on the publication of a map of the glaciers of Iceland, released in May 2013. The purpose of the edition is to make available a detailed map of the glaciers in the country and draw attention to the huge ongoing changes in Iceland's glaciers that occur as a result of climate change.
The map is on a scale of 1:500 000 and shows the outlines of glaciers in Iceland

also on the agenda. Participants visited the geothermal baths of Krauma and the 500 m long man-made ice tunnel in Langjökull ice cap, pictured above. (Photo: IMO)

as the impact on air traffic is considered negligible at this stage.
Cloud height:Rough estimates indicate the gas plume reaches between 500 m and 1 km.
Other cloud information:Gas release is ongoing from the fissure. No ash emission.

Grímsvötn, but the rate of discharge
increase has slowed. At 09:30 GMT today, discharge was gauged at
1,200 m3/s. Electrical conductivity has increased to 500 µS/cm.
Increased electrical conductivity in the Súla river suggests that a small
volume of geothermal water is draining from the western side of the
Skeiðarárjökull glacier.

: The jökulhlaup in the Gígja river peaked yesterday between 13:00 and
14:00 GMT at ~2,600 m3/s. At 10:30 GMT today, a discharge of 1,005
m3/s was recorded. The electrical conductivity of floodwater draining
beneath the Gígja bridge remains high, with values of over 500 µS/cm
measured today.
Seismic tremor: Tremor levels at seismic station 'grf' are declining rapidly. There is no
sign of low
