Best Answer

A volcano known as an 'Icelandic volcano' is characterised by fissure eruptions, occurring on constructive plate boundaries, where two plates are moving apart and magma rises up in the gap making a plateau of rock intead of the more frequently associated cone shaped volcano. These volcanic eruptions are gentle but are persistant and constant.

The Guðnasteinn Volcano from underneath the Eyjafjallajökull glacier in Iceland.

It has erupted twice in 2010, on the 20th March and on the 14th April.

The Icelandic President has announced due to the recent eruptions, activity is likely to stir in the Neighbouring Volcano called Katla which will cause flooding and air disruption.
