Sentinel's Infra-red view [false colour image] of Nar and the lava flows in Geldingadalir. Meradalir and Natthagi on Saturday 26th June 2021. The brighter the colour the warmer the area (with white the hottest, then yellow and red, with black the coolest - background in grey). The two round dots roughly to the east of Nar (the main vent) are small lava lakes. Not my image : Fair Use & educational purposes

Aerial view of "Nar" and the erupted lava fields surrounding the vents & fissures that started erupting on 19th march 2021. (FLO is to the left and BOB to the right, Meradalir is the valley on the far side of "Nar", much of the recent lava has ended up in Natthagi (off screen to the right).

Webcam still screengrab from 1st June 2021 at 1240, showing the older, blocky aa lava (black) against the newer, still grey shaded, ropey pahoehoe flows. e2a - in the almost four weeks since this image was captured, Nar has continued to pour lava into Meradalir - estimated to be 1/3 to 1/2 of the total lava output - this further lava has flowed into the cross valley visible to the left. A marker for the depth is the break of slope just above the change in lava colour at the entrance to the cross valley. As of 26th June, that break of slope is starting to be submerged.

Webcam still screengrab [looking SSW at 02:20 on 1st June 2021] showing surface and tunneled lava flows arriving in Meradalir and extending the eastwards spread. The newest flows are the lighest grey, and have largely covered previous outpourings, including the much smaller valley bottom fields that were mostly from the FLO system vents.

The layout / names of the vents visible on 17th May 2021. Nar, (half of system 5) is the only active vent.

Photo annotated with the unofficial vent names, as at 13th April 2021. Extra details are in the album commentary. Not my image : Fair use & public information

Lava from volcano vents "BoB" are continuing to flow into Geldingadalir. The lava from the new vents to the north-east, especially that from No.2 ie "FLO" , are descending into Meradalir. [as at 13th April 2021] Not my image : Fair Use & educational purposes.

The eastern berm had been overtopped by lava, which is now flowing into Natthagi. The purple colour shows the extent of the lava as at approx 1630 on 22nd May 2021 [The actual route has two kinks in it that are not shown correctly on the map]. The western - higher and thicker - berm has not been breached. Lava continues to flow into Geldingadalir and Meradalir (as of 2nd June 2021) as well as into Natthagi. Not my image ; fair use & educational purposes.

The red areas show the zones where the vegetation (moss, lichens, some grass etc) has been burnt. The fires were started by vent ejecta [lava bombs and the like] or by direct exposure to lava flows. Situation as at 28th May 2021 (approx). {some other features are explained by notes} Not my Image : fair use & educational purposes

Satellite image from "Soar-Sentinel2-TRUE-COLOR-2021-05-04-Verbessert3" The extent of the lava erupted since 19th March 2021 [to 4th May 2021] is visible. Not my Image : fair use & educational purposes

Full sunny daylight - the lava from "Nar" is flowing downhill into Meradalir (off to the right). The channel contains a sizeable chunk of the splatter cone the eruption is constructing around Nar's vent, but there are frequent partial collapses. {webcam langihryggurN 2021-05-05 at 1640, Icelandic time} Not my image [webcam screengrab] ; fair use & educational purposes

Looking at "Nar" which was recently fountaining lava. Note, the central "lumps" in the lava channel, this is a section of Nar's cone which partially collapsed earlier. If it "grounds" and blocks the channel - currently lava is flowing around the obstructions and down into Meradalir - then some lava will be diverted into the area [valley with no name] in front of & to the left of this webcam {webcam langihryggurN 2021-05-08 at 0520, Iceland time} Not my image [webcam still] ; fair use & education

Looking at "Nar" in actively fountaining lava, with some ejecta landing outside the cone. Note, the central "lump" in the lava channel, this is a section of Nar's cone which partially collapsed earlier. If it "grounds" and blocks the channel - currently lava is flowing down into Meradalir - then some lava will be diverted into the area [valley with no name] in front of & to the left of this webcam {webcam langihryggurN 2021-05-08 at 0630, Iceland time} Not my image [webcam still] ; fair use & education

A map [text is in Icelandic] showing the layout of the valleys around the site of the volcano in Geldingadalir. [eruption began 19th March 2021 and continues ...] The white arrows show the main connections [cols / passes] between the valleys, by which routes the lava could pass to lower levels.
