Abstract

Historical records show that the 1783-1784 AD Laki eruption caused severe environmental stress and posed a health hazard far beyond the borders of Iceland. Given the reasonable likelihood of a recurrence of such a ‘low-probability, high-impact’ event it is important to assess the scale on which a future eruption could impact society. For this chapter, GLOMAP-mode has been used to explore the potential impact of a future Laki-style eruption on air pollution and mortality in Europe.
