Eyjafjallajökull is an Icelandic ice cap that covers the caldera of an active stratovolcano located near the villages of Skógar and Mýrdalsjökull. In the spring of 2010 most of Europe faced great consequences arising from several significant eruptions and their subsequent ash cloud formations. These...
