On March 16 2024 Iceland Volcano Eruption: The fourth eruption in as many months took place. The usual stunning curtain of lava and extremely long fissure was similar to other eruptions in 2023 and 2024 except that this eruption has lasted far longer. Three prior eruptions in the Fagradalsfjall volcanic system in Iceland erupted on 19 March 2021 and 2022 bringing the grand total to 7 eruptions in just 4 years.
Although the Fagradalsfjall fissure swarm has previously been considered a split or secondary swarm of the Krýsuvík-Trölladyngja volcanic system, as of September 2022 Icelandic volcanologists managing the Catalogue of Icelandic Volcanoes made the decision to identify Fagradalsfjall as a distinct and separate system.
The fissure eruption that started in March 2021 in the Geldingadalur (also referred to as Geldingadalir) valley continued until mid-September 2021 (BGVN 46:05; 46:10). Several fissure vents opened along a NE-SW trend, accompanied by gas-and-steam emissions, spatter, and lava fountains; flows began to fill Geldingadalur and eventually reached the Meradalir valley. This report covers a new eruption period that began on 3 August 2022 using information from the Icelandic Meteorological Office (IMO), the Institute of Earth Sciences, and various satellite data.
