Sehr aufschlussreich - besonders auch, wenn man mit untenstehender Karte vergleicht: Die Erdbebenherde und die die Insel querende Kette der isländischen Vulkane verlaufen ziemlich identisch.

Szene aus [Bright Star] von Jane Campion - "... the bright star who was a shining light."

"The eruption has continued today, but the volcano has only emitted a fraction of the material it previously spewed. Today, it has been projecting about 100 tons of material per second, down from 1,000 tons of material last night, and 10,000 tons of material on Sunday. The ash plume now reaches 3-5 km in the air, down from 8-10 km yesterday."

... wenn man weit weg in einem relativ unbeschwerten, "normalen" Alltag lebt: Man kann sich eigentlich überhaupt keine Vorstellung [vom wirklichen Desaster] für die unmittelbar Betroffenen machen.

"This is in Icelandic, but I'm sure you get the gist. Some incredible (and heartbreaking) images from the area near the eruption. Visibility was around 1 m when the reporter went outside, and when he came back in, covered in ash, he'd been outside for 30 seconds."
