the recent eruptions before that occurred in 2004 and 1998. The eruption in 2011 was significantly larger than other recent eruptions at Grímsvötn volcano. To find an eruption of similar magnitude one needs to go back to 1873. The 2011 eruption started in the evening of 21st of May and lasted for almost seven days. The ash cloud reached maximum 20 km a.s.l. and was seen in the beginning of the eruption

years, IMO has participated in extensive research supported by the European Commission, EC, and various other funds, which is meant to improve this situation. The results of the collective research were published in 2009 in a book called The design of avalanche protection dams - Recent practical and theoretical developments.

Windspeed conversions
The Icelandic Meteorological Office uses the SI (Systeme Internationale d´Unites) unit metres per second (m/s) in windspeed measurements. Here you can convert between different units of windspeed. Type a number into a textbox below and then click outside it. Please note that Beaufort-values are between 0 and 12.
