A simple schematic model from the British Geological Survey of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano summit, crater and ash plume, Iceland, as seen on Blue Peter’s Make It. It is intended as a simple guide to understanding how volcanoes such as Eyjafjallajökull are influenced by tectonic plate activity along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. It also shows the route of the floodwater from melted glacier ice to the sea. The height of the volcano is highly exaggerated.

Requires scissors and glue.

Colourful and clear model, particularly useful for students who may struggle to make models from scratch. The factsheets on the website are fantastic supporting material for students to use.
