Currently there are no conductivity measurements on the glacier rives that comes from \u00d6r\u00e6faj\u00f6kull volcano. The plan is that such measurements are going to start soon around \u00d6r\u00e6faj\u00f6kull volcano. Along with gas measurements.<\/p>\n<p>This change suggests that a hydrothermal systems have opened up somewhere under the glacier in \u00d6r\u00e6faj\u00f6kull volcano. This means that magma has now reached depth of 1 km or less. For the past few days the earthquake activity in \u00d6r\u00e6faj\u00f6kull volcano has been getting lower then during the last few weeks when up to 50 earthquakes was being recorded during each week.
