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.
