• Resumen

  • Ceurstemont talks about a photograph of the Laki fissure in southern Iceland. During this event, named the Laki eruption, the Grimsvotn volcano and a 27-kilometre-long fissure-as well as massive craters, like the one shown here--erupted for eight months. Lingering ash and volcanic gases cooled global temperatures for about three years.
