@GinetSosemito @L0gg0l The glacier in this area is around 700 meters thick. A lot more needs to happen before an ash cloud appears.

IMO just released a statement:
“At about 3 a.m. this morning (16 August), an earthquake swarm began by Bárdarbunga volcano in NW Vatnajökull ice cap. Over 200 earthquakes have been recorded. The largest earthquakes have magnitudes of around 3 and over. This is the most intense earthquake swarm in this area for years. Measurements indicate magma movement. The IMO is following the situation closely and has alerted the Civil Protection Agency and aviation authorities.”

Bárbarbunga is just the largest/widest volcano in Iceland, like a giant ice-filled dome.
Largest and deepest caldera. 15km across, 700m deep
Longest volcanic fissure region. Near 100km both SW and NE.
Most seismic volcano.
Longest fissure eruption in historical times; Veidivotn 1477.
Which is also the only confirmed VEI6 eruption in historical times.
And also the biggest ash eruption. The Vatnaoldur in 873, called Settelment ash.
The two largest and longest lava fields in Holocene times. Tjorsáhraun and Ódadahraun.
And finally, together with Grimsvotn, both sit right at the center of the hotspot/plume, and are the 4th and 1st most active volcanoes in Iceland, in historical times, respectively (Hekla and Katla are 2nd and 3rd).

Good question.
I've been watching iceland volcanos/earthquakes since about mid 2011 (so not very long).
I think this is the most 'red' dots I have seen (red means the earthquakes have taken place within the last 4 hours).

[link to en.vedur.is]

But remember, as per a Jon Frimann quote in a post above, there is 700m of ice on top of this volcano, so it would steam before any ash eruption
(Jon explains it better than me)
