More specifically: Households in Vestur-Eyjafjll were required to evacuate due to jkulhlaup hazard during the flank and summit eruptions in Eyjafjallajkull. The eruption of the Eyjafjallajkull volcano in Iceland on 20 March 2010 affected the economic, political and cultural activities in Europe and across the world. At-risk populations are not only vulnerable due to a range of economic, demographic and political elements often beyond their control (Wisner et al., 2004), but also in relation to the various factors that affect their decision-making. These impacts, however, were felt right across the region to lftaver.

About them coming with the sirens [makes siren sounds] and taking me I dont mind the eruption but please dont send the police! Slheimar lies within the southern jkulhlaup hazard zone for a Katla eruption and during the Eyjafjallajkull summit eruption they were impacted by considerable ash fall and loud sound blasts. While the nature of the 2016 project prevented a more broad survey, as that conducted in 2010, it provided an excellent opportunity to exchange and discuss valuable information with authorities in regards to developments in volcanic emergency response strategies on the back of learnings from the 2010 Eyjafjallajkull eruptions and our survey data. Within these communities, people are bound together by common beliefs, values and activities. The volcanic event began in March of 2010 but activity only died down later in May. This undermines decision making processes . Long Term. [My family has lived in this region as] far back as I am able to remember (S). Key criteria. Contributions from the Ash Fall Impacts Working Group, Katharine Haynes, Carolina Garcia Londoo and Gurn Ptursdttir are appreciated in relation to the development of the questionnaire. These eruptions, however, did not occur without warning. Concern was also raised with respect to the lack of knowledge and interest among young Icelanders, with one of the residents stating that more emphasis should be placed on teaching the geography and geology of Iceland to primary school through to college students. Consisting of local residents as volunteers, some of whom form part of the local rescue team, their role is to sweep their neighbourhood by going from house to house to ensure everyone has received the warnings and have, or are in the process of evacuating to their designated centre (Bird et al., 2009b). Volcano Insurance on vehicles and properties, and research into ash detectors for planes. High tech equipment is now used to measure volcanic activity Warning systems A text message system, where it warns people within 30 mins of the volcano if there will be an eruption. Another noteworthy change in the population structure of the South region is the increase in migration. For example, many noted that Heimaland was a poor choice as they believe it is vulnerable to jkulhlaup emanating from Eyjafjallajkull because it is so low in the landscape and it is built in the old river bed of Markarfljt (V-E). In some instances, the sweepers provide the only link between emergency management officials and the community (Bird et al., 2009b), further bolstering the work of the rescue teams at the local level. Risk Anal 32:601615. Other aspects of the 2010 survey have been published elsewhere (Bird and Gsladttir, 2012, Bird and Gsladttir, 2014, Bird et al., 2018). Tierney KJ, Lindell MK, Perry RW (2001) Facing the unexpected: disaster preparedness and response in the United States. Global cooling caused by the ash. The majority of respondents declared farming as their occupation. Participants Adult residents in areas close to the Eyjafjallajkull volcano (N=1096), divided according to exposure levels, and a non-exposed sample (n=475), with 80% participation rate in 2013. To be effective, warnings need to be clear, precise and consistent as people will focus on minor points of inconsistency to support their decision to reject proposed actions (Drabek, 1999).

Additional localised disruption continued into May 2010, and eruptive activity persisted until June 2010. 5 which shows residents have much more trust in information from local police in 2010 than respondents did in 2008. In April 2010 the ash cloud from Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano triggered the biggest aviation shutdown in Europe since World War II. They banded together with neighbours and friends to help each other through the tough times but they also had great concerns for their livestock. The scientific validity and operational utility of the ash concentration charts have been questioned by international experts and therefore have not been implemented outside Europe. This is the ninth video for the AQA GCSE 9-1 Geography course, and the ninth video of the Cha. That means the 7-day shutdown of much of Europe's air traffic ordered by civil aviation authorities, which affected 10 million passengers and cost between 1.5 billion and 2.5 billion, was likely worth it. The 2016 interviews and the preparation of this paper were supported by the Nordic Centre of Excellence for Resilience and Societal SecurityNORDRESS, which is funded by the Nordic Societal Security Programme. While the PADM identifies the way people typically make decisions, Lindell and Perry, (2012) recognise that various situational facilitators and impediments influence their response. While the sample size may seem small, it is a reflection of this sparsely populated rural area (as evidenced by the number of inhabitants given in Fig. Long term effects Areas of farmland covered in ash or washed away Multiple community meetings were also held with residents living in the expected hazard zone. An intense seismic crisis started at Brdarbunga volcano on 16 August 2014 and led to several short-lived smaller subaerial and subglacial eruptions, before stabilizing in an ongoing (22 Sep) fissure eruption that started 31 Aug at Holuhraun plain north of the glacier. Accessed 15 Oct 2018, Danielsson J (2009) The first casualty of the crisis: Iceland.

The Montserrat volcano eruption took place in February. 1 / 9. On average, Mauna Loa, located on the island of Hawaii in the Pacific Ocean, erupts every three and a half years with fountains and streams of incandescent lava. Iceland: 5.0 Km ESE of Brarbunga. Tourism became a large contributor to the economy after the 2010 eruption of the Eyjafjallajkull volcano. or more economically developed countries. But an eruption does not worry us. The structure of the population, however, changed during this period with losses in the 017 year and 3044 year age categories across both genders between 2000 and 2016 (Fig. The years of 2000, 2008 and 2016 were selected as equal time periods of available data from the most recent year (i.e., 2016, as accessed in 2017). They are so enthusiastic. Bird, D.K., Gsladttir, G. Responding to volcanic eruptions in Iceland: from the small to the catastrophic. There is an old Icelandic saying: You couldnt see/distinguish your hands. I now understand this. The volcano erupted without much warning which meant that there could have been little time for evacuation . The farm is on a hill and in my opinion there was no risk of flooding (A-E). These kin, friend and community networks not only provide an added element of warning dissemination, but also provide an additional source with whom warning-recipients can verify the legitimacy of information (Lindell and Perry, 2004). Your shoes may fill up with volcanic material and as a fun fact, I can add that nobody would have a wooden floor in the Westman Islands years after the eruption. And I have the same feeling about Katla (A-E). In a simple comparison of populations (urban and rural residents of South Iceland), Bird et al., (2011) identified different perceptions and beliefs, and therefore different needs with respect to risk mitigation. On 20th March 2010, Eyjafjallajkull burst into life after nearly 190 years of inactivity. How many people are stranded after the eruption of the Eyjafjallajkull. The long-term impact proved to be just as catastrophic, as the community never recovered from the lahars that engulfed it. Worst volcanic eruption in Japan for 90 years.

The family took the situation as it was, slightly worried about the continuation; not knowing what to expect was the worst. I would like to see more emphasis on this, like volcanic activity, geothermal, everything geography in Iceland because were having the tourists now [But] we have our children who are not finding out about those things. The flooding that threatened a whole area was terrifying and moved us deeply But this was fantastic and magnificent I would not have liked to miss this experience (S). One of the semi-structured interviews revealed that while the respondent marked on the questionnaire that they had evacuated, in reality, they had not. Despite these advances, Icelands sweeper system is still considered a critical component of the communication network. Aggregated migration data is presented for South Iceland from 19862016 (i.e., the time period available from Statistics Iceland). I dont think that anyone around here was afraid. Even though some considered it the right thing to do, they decided to shelter in place (e.g., within their own home) because they had a duty of care to family members and believed this was the safest option. Causes The Canary Islands have over 30 volcanoes, 10 of which lie on the island of La Palma. For me this was at the same time frightening and magnificent. But still I say the evacuation was necessary because I think what makes everything so easy and organised and good is people obey the authorities. -Rescue coordinators- well equipped for event and knowledgable. Currently, concentration charts have only been adopted for operational use in Europe and the North Atlantic region, as outlined in Volcanic Ash Contingency Plan EUR and NAT Regions. If it caused a flood in the rivers then we would of had only 1h to escape. . As a result, 2016 recorded the highest number of people employed in tourism. In addition to the everyday work of the local rescue teams, these officials will again call upon the sweeper system to help disseminate warning messages and check that individual households have complied with evacuation orders. Despite volcanic eruptions in earlier times, the eruption of Iceland's Eyjafjallajkull in April and May 2010 served as a climactic point in aviation history. Some questions regarding Katla were retained because the Katla hazard zones cover the same communities impacted by the Eyjafjallajkull eruptions. All data was entered into SurveyMonkey and exported into Microsoft Excel for analysis. The eruption, which began on 26 October, has already left 141 people dead and 453 injured near the volcano, which is located some 30km north of the city of Yogyakarta. People talked about the possibility of Eyjafjallajkull [erupting], and we were light-hearted about it you know, saying wow, it can erupt. Conducted as a more open interview than the rigorous 2010 interviews, the 2016 interviews lasted between 17 and 57min. By undertaking research within this time period, we were able to capture more detailed and accurate narratives of actions and perspectives of the decision-making process, given that intricate details of which fade with time. So when it started we were more like What? Transcripts were analysed and coded according to the core topics of the 2010 questionnaire. Accessed 8 Nov 2016, Statistics Iceland (2017a) Population by municipality, age and sex 1998-2017 - Division into municipalites as of 1 January 2017. http://px.hagstofa.is/pxen/pxweb/en/Ibuar/Ibuar__mannfjoldi__2_byggdir__sveitarfelog/MAN02005.px/table/tableViewLayout1/?rxid=813b90ba-b0e0-4863-a995-a9c8bb7e9bbc.

IOM is providing transport for the government, international and local NGOs to distribute non-food relief items for some 290,000 people displaced by the eruption of Mount Merapi in Central Java. further research into the effect on the ash on aircraft . Residents attributed this success to the desire to conform to authorities that are known to them on a more personal basis. Hence, memories of a significant experience, e.g., that relating to the Eyjafjallajkull eruption, may influence peoples response to a future event, e.g., a catastrophic Katla eruption. Overall, residents believed they coped rather well with the eruptions (Table 3). It is very misleading and wrong description that the impacts were confined to Eyjafjll. a near-term response (Arsenal Match Highlights Today, Minnesota . In comparison, specific migration details are not available by municipality, i.e., Statistics Iceland only provides aggregated data at a regional level. 7 Iceland's Financial Crisis and Its Causes In October 2008, Iceland nationalized its three largest banks. Sveinn Rnarsson, 2018). Environ Sci Policy 13:185194, Hskuldsson (2015) rfajkull. Evacuation orders were disseminated via the automated phone alert system, supervised by the local Chief of Police. For example, peoples decision to comply with evacuation orders may be influenced by their ability to perform the required action, the availability of information about the threat, trust in the source of that information and feelings of responsibility to undertake the prescribed action (Bird et al., 2009b, Bird et al., 2011, Drabek, 1999, Haynes et al., 2008, Mileti et al., 2004, Strahan et al., 2018). Population data for this period is available by municipality. The inherent challenges this enhanced diversity brings with respect to developing risk mitigation strategies cannot be ignored. Additionally, people were concerned about the designated evacuation centres. It is rare to find such a detailed study that spans the before and aftera perspective that is often unattainable due to the nature of natural hazard events. Aggregated livelihood data is therefore presented for outside the capital region from 19912016 (i.e., the time period available from Statistics Iceland). Report for the Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC, Melbourne, Haynes K, Handmer J, Mcaneney J, Tibbits A, Coates L (2010) Australian bushfire fatalities 19002008: exploring trends in relation to the Prepare, stay and defend or leave early policy. The outbreak began along a fissure that split the long axis of the summit caldera, an oval, cliff-bounded basin approximately 3 to 5 km . Specific livelihood details are not available by municipality, i.e., Statistics Iceland only provides aggregated data from the capital region and outside the capital region. I found the place that people from Eyjafjll were supposed to evacuate to not safe [Heimaland]. Population of Mrdalshreppur, Skaftrhreppur and Rangring eystra by age and sex. Since then, the industry has flourished resulting in a rapid increase in employment numbers particularly since 2012corroborating the statements from officials in 2016. Flashcards. Responses. The kids they can learn everything. Coupled with the changing social characteristics, this paper provides a unique perspective of how residents may behave when faced with future evacuation orders. A little over half the respondents indicated they evacuated during the flank (56% A-E; 56% V-E) and summit (54% A-E; 47% V-E) eruptions. Sitting on the ring of fire, Iceland is known to be prone to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. I know most of the people that live here. Furthermore, residents were not kept at the evacuation centre any longer than needed. This extends from the south coast of the island and was imposed because of the size of the existing volcanic dome and the resulting potential for pyroclastic activity. The. Yet, while eruptions are spectacular to watch, they can cause disastrous loss of life and property, especially in densely populated regions of the world. We have a similar amount of policemen as we had in 2004 (O). Disaster researchers have, however, applied a range of theoretical perspectives to enhance our understanding of the process of decision-making in response to imminent threats. Centre for Economic Policy Research, London, Dash N, Gladwin H (2007) Evacuation decision making and behavioral responses: individual and household. 7. In order to capture the changing structure and situation in South Iceland in more detail, demographic data held by Statistics Iceland was accessed from www.statice.is and analysed using Microsoft Excel. We still live with ash storm when the wind is blowing (S). They can reduce sunlight by blocking out the sun and even cause problems for air travel like the recent Iceland volcano. They told us they needed 2h and after 2h if they hadnt come back we would call them (O). A further 21% received news from family, friends or neighbours and 36% heard about it on the radio. Following the collapse of Icelands banking system in October 2008 (Danielsson, 2009), the region has experienced an increase in international migration (growth of 2.54 between 2009 and 2016), as well as that from the capital region (growth of 1.30 between 2011 and 2016), as shown in Fig. in response to this demand, the european union'stransport ministers adopted a short-term solution.they declared that a volcanic ash concentration of up to 2 mg/m3 was deemed 'safe' for flight operations, provided that certain risk mitigation . Thank you for visiting nature.com. Given the South attracts the highest number of visitors outside the capital region (Bird et al., 2016), it is safe to assume that the changes in livelihood are a reflection of changes in the South. We taped the windows and the doorsby 12:0014:00 it was completely dark, we could not see anything. Combining various elements from these (e.g., Emergent Norm Theory, Protection Motivation Theory, Behavioural Decision Theory, Classical Persuasion Model, Attitude-Behaviour Theory), Lindell and Perry (2004) produced an integrated model entitled the Protective Action Decision Model (PADMsee Lindell and Perry (2004) for a description of each of these theories and models and how they relate to the PADM). Evacuation plans, based on a 2005 hazard assessment (see Gumundsson and Gylfason, 2005), were finalised during this period (Bird et al., 2011). The animals aren't as effected because the lava flow is slow enough everyone should be able to get away in time. The datasets generated during and/or analysed during the current study are not publicly available due to human research ethics agreements but may be made available from the corresponding author on reasonable request. There is not any better place to be at [referring to the safety of his home]; there is no reason to be running somewhere (V-E). The flank eruption was followed 12 days later (14 April) by a far more explosive 39-day long summit eruption resulting in medium-sized jkulhlaups (glacial outburst floods) to the north, small jkulhlaups and lahars to the south and considerable ash fall to the east and east-southeast of the volcano (orkelsson, 2012). . For example, there are distinct differences between decision-making and actions undertaken by men and women (Haynes et al., 2016, Haynes et al., 2010) and age plays a significant role, with younger males often taking greater risks than older age groups and women across all age groups (Haynes et al., 2016). The questionnaire included 92 open and closed response questions compiled into the following 10 sections, which also formed the basis of the semi-structured interviews. Due to the flank eruption, residents awareness was heightened when the summit eruption began in the early hours of 14 April 2010, with many reporting they were closely monitoring earthquake activity on the Icelandic Meteorological Offices website. Residents in Slheimar and lftaver stated they were not required to evacuate. Its more like Hekla erupting. https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-018-0205-6, DOI: https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-018-0205-6. Effects and long and short term responses of Volcanoes by . The twin craters Magni and Mi created in the Fimmvruhls 2010 eruption. Based on those advisories, over 300 airports in about two dozen countries, and a correspondingly large airspace, were closed in Europe during 15-21 April 2010. Please note, due to time pressures the community of Skgar (Austur- Eyjafjll) was not included in this study. The first evacuation orders that residents in Vestur- and Austur-Eyjafjll received this second time came from DCPEM/police (50% A-E; 58% V-E), family, friends or neighbours (28% A-E; 8% V-E) and, the rescue teams (6% A-E; 8% V-E).

The 2010 eruption of Iceland's Eyjafjallajkull volcano caused so much trouble to air traffic with its ash plume because of the jagged particles of ash that formed when magma came into contact wi E-15 volcano (short&long term responses) Flashcards. The former outbreak in Eyjafjallajkull in 2010 was a small effusive basalt eruption starting on March 20th when a 400 m long fissure opened on the northeastern flank of the volcano called Fimmvruhls that lies between the ice caps of Eyjafjallajkull and Mrdalsjkull glaciers at 800 m above sea level. An additional 13 respondents indicated they had tourism as their main occupation. In its path, the lava decimated houses, schools and the city's main water reservoir. They dont seem like they are afraid or trying to get information about when the next [eruption] comes. Google Scholar, Mileti DS, Sorensen JH (1990) Communication of emergency public warnings: a social science perspective and state-of-the-art assessment. Case Study - Icelandic Eruption 2010. These trigger a series of pre-decisional processes that stimulate the receiver to consider their perception of the threat, alternative options for protective action and their perceptions of the relevant stakeholders involved (Lindell and Perry, 2012). People feeling that they didnt get enough information. Officials were also very pleased with public response to the evacuation orders. On the scientific front, there has been a notable increase in volcanic-cloud research since Eyjafjallajkull and the Cordon Caulle long-lived ash plume of 2011. Together, these eruptions caused considerable damage and ongoing challenges to local residents (Bird and Gsladttir, 2012). The Heimaey eruption of 1973 kick-started Iceland's rescue and evacuation framework in earnest, and today the Department of Civil Protection and Emergency Management oversees these kinds of operations. Enzyme Time, South-West Iceland's Been Hit by 17,000 Earthquakes This Week. Test. Match. However, experience of an event, either direct or vicarious, can lead people to expect similar impacts from future events. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of capturing narratives of actions and activities to enhance our understanding of the process of decision-making and the situational factors that add to its complexity. The questionnaire and semi-structured interviews were comprehensive, taking 3045min and up to 2h and 36min to complete, respectively. The officials interviewed in 2016 were extremely positive about their relationship with local residents and the trust that residents have in them and the volcanic response plans. I found it safer to be at a place where many of my countrymen were also (A-E). Our analysis therefore focused on those municipalities surrounding the Eyjafjallajkull and Katla volcanoes: Mrdalshreppur (which includes Slheimar), Skaftrhreppur (which includes lftaver) and Rangring eystra (which includes Vestur- and Austur-Eyjafjll). Average sentiment (where 1=not at all and 5=completely) in regards to respondents levels of trust in information from various sources about a future Katla eruption (n2008=19, n2010=5458). Sustained long-term efforts are needed to minimize the loss of lives from future eruptions. The relatively small, homogenous population of Iceland, with a tradition of integrated research, policy and practice and, as well as its peoples strong desire to cooperate have been attributed as factors influencing the success of community-based health interventions (Sigfsdttir et al., 2009). They can cause rain, thunder and lightning. (background, The eruption of Eyjafjallajkull Composite map of the volcanic ash cloud spanning 20 March 2010. The first evacuation orders that residents in Vestur-Eyjafjll and Austur-Eyjafjll received came from DCPEM/police (38% A-E; 43% V-E), family, friends or neighbours (31% A-E; 14% V-E) and, the rescue teams (6% A-E; 14% V-E)Footnote 1. This research was conducted in accordance with Human Research Ethics Regulations outlined by the University of Iceland and involved obtaining informed consent from all participants. With the rapidly increasing number of tourists in the region, the police/DCPEM may need to consider further non-compliance, particularly among tour operators and tourist accommodation managers/staff due to their duty of care to their patrons. Using the Citizen Science methodology, Earthwatch's mission statement is "to engage people worldwide in . At the same time, the number of people involved in farming activities outside the capital region declined, with 2016 portraying the lowest employment rates in the industry since 1991.

As with the semi-structured interviews conducted in 2010, the 2016 open interviews were audio recorded with consent and transcribed by the authors. Lahars caused severe erosion to rivers. All other municipalities are considered as being outside the capital region. Officials had, however, explained the need for a broad evacuation order even for areas that are safe from jkulhlaup hazards. Residents trust in these officials has also evolved from officials listening to and developing strategies to meet the needs of the community. In addition to duty of care, non-compliance can be attributed to a belief that the warnings were irrelevant to the household. They could put more effort in it. Authorities now have the ability to push emergency notifications out to all mobile phones within a designated area of telecommunication towers (pers.

Ascending the volcano. (). Considering future response in this region is important given Katla is renowned as one of Iceland's most dangerous volcanoes due to its potential to produce catastrophic jkulhlaup (>100,000. 6). . Based on what we. Exactly ten years ago, on the 15th of April 2010, the volcanic eruption of Eyjafjallajkull in Iceland had caused European airspace to come to a standstill. Austur-Eyjafjll respondents also recorded the greatest impacts with respect to their home, while Slheimar respondents recorded the greatest impacts to them and/or their familys health and financially. Use the GeoActive worksheet, Haiti earthquake 2010 (above), to complete the Word document (below). Because of this, officials have faith that residents will comply with evacuation orders when given, as they did during the 2010 Eyjafjallajkull eruptions. While 2010 respondents believed it is more likely a Katla eruption will occur in the next 10 years, they perceived less damage would occur particularly in relation to their property (Fig. These figures, however, should be treated with caution.
