what type of eruptions does katla produce
They typically produce plumes of volcanic ash, formed by the interaction of the erupting magma with the ice. However, the Katla volcanic system was the source of one of the largest known flood basalt eruptions in Iceland, the Eldgja eldgjÃ¡ eruption OF adâ934. 940iew across the lava flows produced from the 2010 Eyjafjallajoekull eyjafjallajÃ¶kull eruption towards The mÃ½rdalsjoekull mÃ½rdalsjÃ¶kull ice Cap. And Katla the; mÃ½rdalssandur floodplain the coastline was extended by 5 km after the last major eruption. in 1918
This discovery produced a revelation that Novarupta - and not Katmai - was the volcano responsible for the eruption (see satellite image medium resolution, 164 KB or higher resolution, 1330 KB). This is possibly the most important false accusation in the history of volcanic study.
