Abstract/Summary

The March-May 2010 volcanic eruption in southern Iceland brought volcanoes to the attention of the general public, as north-westerly winds carried a cloud of volcanic ash across Europe and caused major disruption to air travel. This article describes that eruption, looks at the historical background, and asks what whether we can expect to see more such disruption in the future.
