Iceland has 32 volcanoes currently considered active, the highest number in Europe. The country has registered an eruption every five years in the media.
A small volcanic eruption proceeds this Saturday in Iceland 40 km from the capital, Reikiavik, with no further consequence of the provocation, for the first time in 800 years in this sector of the country, a river of lava and red magma rising.
Through intense intense seismic activity from three weeks ago and an eruption alert, a lava flow broke through the fires at 20:45 on a grizzly bear in Geldingadalur, near the Fagradalsfjall mountain, illuminating the night with a new cloud.

“The eruption is small and the activity has been declining since last night. It is limited to a small area in the valley and it is very likely that it causes death, ”said the last communiqué of the Meteorological Service (OMI) of Iceland, the Saturday in the media jornada.

Krysuvik’s volcanic system, which does not have a main crater, is located on the Fagradalsfjall mountain, in the peninsula of Reykjanes, in the southeast of Iceland.
Close windows

The Icelandic international airport of Keflavik and the small port of Grindavik are located a few kilometers away, but the area is uninhabited and it is not expected that the eruption will be a chore.
At the moment, the authorities do not inform that haya caido ceniza, pero podrían produce fragments of tefra (solidified magma) and gas emissions.
The policy advises residents to live on this volcano that closes the windows and quenches at home to avoid the risk of gas contamination.

At the moment the traffic can continue at Keflavik airport.
The gas emissions from the volcanoes, as well as the dioxide dioxide, can be elevated during the outbreaks of an eruption and constitute a scourge for salvation, including death.

At a distance, the contamination can exceed the acceptable limits, depending on the wind. The gas “can cause problems and have effective effects for health”, warned the Icelandic Agency of Medio Ambiente.
The volcanic eruptions in the region are effusive, the mayor said on the part of the lava mana the sun, different from the explosions that arrojan clouds of the sky make the sky.
Krysuvik’s volcanic system was inactive for 900 years, following the Meteorological Office and the last eruption on the Reykjanes peninsula, which was repaired 800 years ago, in 1240.
Extremar vigilance
On Sunday, the 24th of February, a vigilante of magnitude 5.7 was recorded near the Keilir Mountains in the Reikiavik area.
This year marks an unusual number of lesser temples: more than 50,000, the mayor since the commencement of digital records in 1991.
Since then the seismic activity has been displaced several kilometers to the east, centering around the Fagradalsfjall mountain, where magma has been detected only one kilometer below the terrestrial surface during the last few days.
This large island near the Arctic Circle extends beyond the mesoatlantic dorsal, a fissure in the ocean floor that separates the Eurasian and North American tectonic sites.
The placement of these placements is responsible for the intense volcanic activity of Iceland.
The most recent eruption took place in Holuhraun (launched in August 2014 and ended in February 2015), in the volcanic system of Bardarbunga, in an area inhabited by the center of Iceland.
This eruption does not cause major problems, but also for those who use the most popular sites.
But in 2010, an eruption on the Eyjafjallajokull volcano created huge clouds of hum and clouds in the atmosphere, interrupting the air traffic during one week, with the cancellation of more than 100,000 people all over the world. días.
