Iceland is one of the most volcanically dynamic places on Earth, with a significant eruption occurring on average every four or five years. Yet this was southwestern Iceland's first eruption in some 800 years, reports the New York Times.Much of the island is composed of (long-ago cooled) volcanic rock. Molten rock (magma) is always brewing beneath Iceland, in large part because it lies over a hot spot, where a plume of magma, from deep in the Earth, can travel up near to the surface. (Hawaii has a similar hot spot).
