Give me 20 minutes ringback. I know has worked as a farmer a fisherman and a carpenter but he loves the glaciers and the volcanoes and the ice so much that he has found a way to enjoy i sense bizarre Natural Beauty almost every day he guides hikers climbers and fresh air and to see is through the lonely mountains today hes joined by sarah and sam 2 Business Consultants from london. Who i know is famous in iceland has explored almost all the ice caves in the places. Oh boy here with. Me. Today the volcano is clearly visible it doesnt look like a volcano but like a Long Mountain ridge time to carry on on force. One. Into the highness says that without spikes you would slip after 2 meters on the glassy rise almost up. To me. After one hour the 3 reached the crevice discovered by 50 year old i know some 10 years ago. Move and then the pua glazier ice shine simply. Acrimony and turquoise. The ice several tens of thousands of years old 1st film. And then it was compressed and became broke out and transparent almost like glass. Removed roof. Sometimes there are streaks of fine layers of ash in the ice traces of volcanic eruptions from bygone centuries. Real. People ask me why. You know. Well of course i can come up with some scientific explanation that i learned like yeah you know there. Is only that. You know this i am this supposed to travel this deep through. Blocked or go all the way through living by. But viii. I have a simple explanation i really love this blue color got motion i love it this is what he said that like that right right right you Start Talking about wavelength allowed to truth i say its because i love god loves me i love but im happy. To fight it. And then by a guest star of another color recipe is. In the its seen in the reflection of the flame on the wall and ceiling. The. Wind. Which was covered entirely by snow and ice erupted in 1362. 00 it covered almost the entire island with hot ash the cloud spread in the upper layers of the atmosphere and ashwell across eastern iceland and parts of northern europe. Its estimated that the eruption cost the lives of millions of people worldwide. Outside that area. So that now in 2018200130 extension 0 become have shown. Im not hopeful. But iceland is arming itself against another possible nature option i know you do its also a. The Emergency Warning System the volcano became active in november 27 tamed with numerous earthquakes its somewhat changed shape and the readings taken at monitoring stations rose alarmingly scientists in the capital reykjavik asked residents on the southeast of iceland to regularly check the values at the monitoring stations. Are mostly good to have been asked and agreed to help. He knows how important precise data can be in worst case scenarios. He checks g. P. S. Installations repairs solar panels and like today looks for signs that show whether the volcano is coming down or still looks menacing. The river has its source directly below the volcano. Every underground mumbling in the belly of the volcano is reflected in the melt water. Was. Robbed by measuring conductivity that remember at low levels and when a lot of water comes directly from the volcano and after that you have the highest Electrical Conductivity to group around because. The right to do called had been in a deep sleep for almost 300 years so scientists have paid little attention. Since its a whitening that has changed instead of 9 measuring instruments there are now 26. Weekly meeting of the Crisis Response group in the capital reykjavik. Kristen your story is in charge of the earth quite. Monitoring system e. Heritage and colleague. Coordinates the volcano emergency teams. The data from the potential disaster area is analyzed by the Icelandic Meterological Office an innocent sounding name for the Crisis Response center which issues commands to all the countrys authorities rescue teams and air Traffic Control lives depend on the exact calculation of the wind force and direction quantity and composition of volcanic ash. Which is the time i. Guess. You know various. Liked. Just seismologists geologists and volcanologists are currently focusing their attention on icelands highest elevation under which it has been bubbling flowing and vibrating since the end of 2017. In the volcano definitely has been and probably is the receiving newmark bomb they say is missing the is somehow reflecting this these changes in their part of the system. And what we do currently in our work 24 hour monitoring at all here we are keeping an eye and a moment on area for you just to be able to identify all those signals that might be over the short term also showing that there are acceleration or rock changes in the system that might be pickled sorry for interruption. The icelanders take the threat from the Sleeping Giant so seriously that the intervals between emergency exercises have been shortened. The. Researchers will never forget nov 27th seen the seismic signal sent out by the volcano were extreme it was like hes in a church bell with a sledgehammer. Again and show you here on a laptop. Just. Its kind of unfair. From 2005 and here in 2017 years that this is in place and it doesnt really matter what they look at if you look at their monthly earthquake if you look at the market there if you look at the energy released from the earthquakes like everything is going up so its just its obvious that something happened you know throughout whats happening and then all of a sudden here in times when 17 starts to increase both the number of earthquakes and percentage of the it will happen at some point. There will be an eruption. And the question is just the one. I slammed is blessed with breathtaking nature rich fishing grounds and a unique energy source. For. Electricity production in iceland is 100 percent renewable a quarter of it is generated by Geothermal Power plants as this one between the International Airport and the capital reykjavik so much energy is produced that the export surplus power is being considered laying an undersea cable to connect iceland to the european power grid becomes more and more feasible as Energy Prices increase but electricity and hot water are cheap on iceland an island with natural central heating an undoubted advantage of living on one giant volcano. But the downside of the constant eruptions. There are 100. 30 volcanoes in iceland 30 of them are active there have been 40 eruptions in the past 100 years. The fairchilds every farm has been located directly under the i. F. A. Local tokay no since 1906. It was taken over by all of a good since family in 1000 or 6 until early 2010 the farm supplied the family with an abundance of projects but then the volcano erupted. It 6 kilometers to the mouth of the volcano from here we can see the glaciers and the whole Mountain Range of. 3000 earthquakes were registered between the 3rd and 5th of march 2010 alone the following a russian exceeded all fears. Were mcgurn that we had 200. 00 animals in the stable. If you ask a vanguard caregiver for who we are i thought all my family was able to drive safely. I thought but it is all we have left. We didnt imagine we would suddenly have to abandon the farm the land and the animals. After the disaster only opened a small private museum on his farm. Thousands of tourists from all over the world have already visited to learn about the dramatic events that took place in march and i pulled 2010. Doesnt admit it but it seems as if what happened traumatized him but instead of opting for therapy he got over the shock by watching images of those dramatic events over and over again sometimes hundreds of times. When you least your only going to. Be putting it. On march the 20th 2010 the earth opened several promises beast of a fellow called. Laughter a merge from an elongated future and flowed towards the northeast. At 1st it was an exciting up mostly harmless natural spectacle. But then on the morning of april 14th a 2 kilometer long crevasse broke open on the summit pushing the sub training world skywards the volcano was covered by a several 100 meter thick ice cap millions and millions of tons of melt water formed under the. A tidal wave pool into the valley. People had been evacuated in time and luckily there were no casualties. But the collision of ice and lava led to the lava cooling down within seconds and exploding an ash cloud it rose 9 kilometers into the sky and brought air traffic endurable to a standstill. In the immediate vicinity of the volcano a day turned into night. Rain down. Covering every square meter of land and every remaining house every cow every straight. Owner for a good sense farm was among those destroyed. But all of her and his family survived and eventually they were able to return to the farm together with his wife cruz ne he began to free the fun from the ashleigh a task which would take years. Around 2 thirds of all icelanders live in the rich region and 150000 people live in the rest of the country ready more than 2000000 tourists visit iceland every year and that increases the danger to human life notably in the event of an eruption. Since for you called geophysicists like Magnus Goodman soon from the university of reykjavik have been on the alert in the 1st few weeks the magma came close to the surface or so close that the ice above it melted is all really it was quite alarming because. Well we have not seen this type of precursors being sort of the 1st really big one. Totals that. We have to be we have to be careful you have to realize that we dont know everything before hand and be on the alert for what may be ongoing and because there is a possibility of a work for the staff to of his smoking that it will accumulate in the counter and then come out of the float and the product that is with all those is that there would be very very swift it would happen very fast. For up on the slopes it could be only 20 minutes from the start of that option and the water. Its the its the main road and once a day it is the mental the mental to squat. The magma has longer time to and they tend to be more explosive than is. So. Good is for that reason strongly dangerous when an option happens. This small settlement of hof shows how dramatic the situation could become here everyone in a 10 kilometer area are expected to come to the combines nursery and school in an emergency evacuation would then take place from there. In the past such Meeting Points was set up for several dozen icelanders today several 100 tourists could join them i know some also goes to school here. But his house is a few kilometers to the east so he would have to go to another Meeting Point that means the family would be separated in emergency and. The school is located just below oya for yo called. 5 children attend the school 3 of them a sick today including ainus son and so just 3 people take part in lessons including teacher and berlin enthusiastic magnet. You know how she lives 1st a small gay marriage and elsewhere in europe children build forests round weights and castles here they work on erupting volcano as. Thats just said to feel its very dangerous just conked if i was here the volcano could destroy everything right here on this couple everything and the whole area. Yes its very dangerous unfortunately leica. And then the teacher explains the evacuation plan which is issued by the authorities one of the Meeting Points around the minutes in volcano is here in hoff everyone in the surrounding area has to go to the school immediately all i sland as a wound by text message or phone call the teacher will be responsible for her pupils. She is dreading it you know that. I now has climbed his volcano over 300 times from the ring road below up to the summit. Today he wants to know what it looks like at the top. Scenes have been shot for several International Feature films on the bizarre plays he is below or your for your own called Batman Begins interstellar or game of thrones. I now has sometimes watched the filming from a distance but hes less interested in the films than the volcano itself in good weather you can see how from iceland from the top. Yeah china advances the pilot on where best to land his helicopter. Minus 15 degrees celsius. This is where the crater of the volcano is located. Its covered by a 600. 00 metre thick layer of ice. I mean i was able to measure that the ice was sinking. This is where the volcano would erupt and i decided to walk through the depression with his g. P. S. Device in order to provide scientists with accurate data. He did this with a symbol of faith across. And by walking from north to south and then from west to east. You can see cannot be threatened down there this has just been farming the last year and probably different from here in my g. P. S. Measurement this is over 20 meters through honest like 600 meters thick ice here so the heat has been melting very safe place here and has been dropping down you know for for the dust. Is definitely going on and on we have hot and like every day there are earthquakes here but small but every few weeks we have like 3 rick that earthquakes you know but it is trembling going on in the mountain for the last year like every day before that for many years you did not say it was a big new city of any kind of earthquake here but that was like every every day and i very few weeks quite big earthquakes that many times theyve been feeling this earthquake start of the farms and the whole thirsty of the loaf but. When will an as a volcano erupt nobody knows but the iceland as a making careful preparations. When the volcano erupted in 2010 it was on the news for days the ash cloud reached a height of almost 10 kilometers if the earlier figure called were to erupt as violently as it did in the 14th century experts expected to spew out a 20 or 30 kilometer high column of the ash such an eruption would be around a 100 times stronger than the one in 2010. After the huge eruption in 1362. 00 the survivors gave the volcano and b. Entire region a new name. Raving it means desert or wasteland. Good. Evening john.
