Hekla volca**, one of Iceland's most active volca**es, could be close to erupting, a University of Iceland geoscientist claims.
The most prominent sign of an impending eruption is bulging ground on the **rthern side of the volca**. This surface swelling indicates magma (molten rock) is rising under the volca** (http://www.livescience.com/topics/volca**es/), pushing up the ground as it fills fractures and pipes beneath Hekla. According to GPS monitoring of the expanding surface, there is **w more magma underneath Hekla than before the volca**'s last eruption in 2000, University of Iceland geophysicist Páll Einarsson said in a report published in the Icelandic newspaper Morgunblaðið on Monday (March 17). Hekla volca** "could erupt soon," Einarsson said. Read more...
