Seismic and volcanic activity continue at similar levels as during previous days around the volcano Bárðarbunga in Iceland according to the country's Met Office.
Three earthquakes larger than magnitude 3 have occurred around the Bárðarbunga caldera since the last report yesterday morning. The strongest was 3.7 and took place at 3:20pm yesterday afternoon. About 25 earthquakes were detected in total. About 20 events occurred in the dyke intrusion, all of them smaller than 1.2. Four events were measured around Askja and three around Herðubreið.
Meanwhile the eruption in nearby Holuhraun has reduced significantly in size and scientists say it could possibly be over quite soon.
