Over the weekend there was a technical breakdown in data transmission from web-connected gas detectors in
east and north part of Iceland. The issue is being resolved.
A new online gas detector will be put up in Höfn in Hornarfjörður tomorrow, Tuesday

The Icelandic Met Office provides two-day forecasts on gas dispersion from the eruptive site in Holuhraun. Most
reliable are the forecast maps approved my meteorologist on duty, see Gas forecast. And although still being
developed further, an automatic forecast, see Gas model, is also available (trial run, see disclaimer).

amount of ice is melted and, accordingly, little danger of large jökulhlaups. The floods are monitored by online gauges in several rivers around the volcanoes Katla and Eyjafjallajökull. Large or damaging jökulhlaups are not expected in connection to this event unless changes occur in the eruption pattern.
How is the eruption monitored?
