quality in urban areas in East of Iceland:
o Concentrations of SO2, comparable to those measured yesterday in
Reyðarfjörður, may affect people with underlying respiratory problems
although others should not experience any significant discomfort.
o Efforts to increase the gas monitoring in inhabited areas are on-going. Data
from newly installed SO2 monitoring stations will be accessible later today

the lava.
Air quality in urban areas in the East of Iceland:
o Forecasts indicate that high concentrations of sulphuric gases may be
expected in the northern part of the Eastern fjords, Fljótsdalur, Hérað,
Jökuldalur, and Vopnafjörður. High concentrations could occur in other areas
as well. People who feel discomfort are advised to stay indoors, close the

due to the lava and river water interaction has been observed, but
steam rises from the lava.
o The extent of the lava is now approximately 19 square km.
o No activity is now detected on the southernmost fissure although small
amounts of gas and steam are rising from it.

o Forecasts indicate that high concentrations of sulphuric gases may be
expected in the northern part of the Eastern fjords, Fljótsdalur, Hérað,
Jökuldalur, and on Langanes. Forecast indicates that concentration may
become higher later today. The Environment Agency will set up new
monitoring stations in Akureyri

Air quality in urban areas in the East of Iceland:
High air pollution was detected yesterday in Mývatnssveit. The highest peak was
measured 1250 micrograms per cubic meter. The area likely affected by air pollution
from the eruptoin is now marked by Bárðardalur to the west to
Hólasandur/Merlakkaslétta platou in the east. This evening the affected area
