Katla


Katla,

volcano, 4,961 ft (1,512 m) high, SW Iceland. One of Iceland's most active volcanoes, it is partly buried under the Mýrdalsjökull glacier, which covers its eruptive vents. Katla's most recent major eruption was in 1918, during which mudflows resulting from glacial melting extended the coast some 3 mi (5 km). There may have been a smaller eruption in 1955 that did not break through the glacier.

Katla

 

an active volcano in southern Iceland, with an elevation of 970 m, covered by the southeastern part of the M–rdalsjökull Glacier. The volcano’s eruptions under the ice have caused intensive melting of the ice and the flooding of adjacent regions. Since the tenth century, 14 major eruptions have been recorded, the most recent occurring in 1918, 1934, and 1955.
