In September 2014, a huge volcanic eruption in Iceland emitted up to nine times as much sulfur dioxide per day as all European industry combined.

Geoscientists at the University of Cambridge are uncovering how volcanic activity in Iceland causes earthquakes.

Researchers have created films aimed at reducing volcanic risk in societies threatened by eruptions.

Scientists have used a computer model of ocean circulation to predict the movement of the rafts of floating pumice given off by an erupting underwater volcano.

It's not every day you get invited into one of the world's most secretive states. But that's precisely what happened to seismologist Dr James Hammond. Alex Peel spoke to him about what it's like to work on the Earth's most enigmatic volcano.

A new online tool for predicting the amount of ash pumped into the atmosphere during a volcanic eruption has been made openly available to scientists around the world.

It turns out that one of the deadliest hazards the Earth can throw at us may happen more often than we thought. Darren Mark and Ben Ellis report on how their work in Yellowstone could radically change our understanding of these events, with implications not just for those living nearby but also for the global climate.

Being part of the most remote population on Earth should protect you from the chaos and disruption some light volcanic ashing brings to our crowded European countries. Far from it. Anna Hicks explains how her research is bringing us closer to understanding the risks that go with living in the shadow of one of nature's deadliest forces.
