Gas measurements
The ongoing eruption at Holuhraun is very rich in gas. We should
go 150 years back to find an event
(Trolladyngja) that had a comparable impact on Iceland and its inhabitants, in terms of enviromental and
health issues.
IMO is monitoring gas releases from Holuhraun using DOAS and FTIR instruments for the estimation
of SO2 flux and amount of other components
