Description:
A simple schematic model from the British Geological Survey of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano summit, crater and ash plume, Iceland, as seen on Blue Peter’s Make It. It is intended as a simple guide to understanding how volcanoes such as Eyjafjallajökull are influenced by tectonic plate activity along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. It also shows the route of the floodwater from melted glacier ice to the sea. The height of the volcano is highly exaggerated.
Requires scissors and glue.
