One or two small explosions typically occur every few days, with effects no greater than a light dusting of ash on the surrounding cities.....On August 18, 2013, a large eruption sent ash 20,000 feet (6,000 metres) above Kagoshima Bay, breaking the established pattern. It was possibly the largest eruption ever from the Showa Crater, which formed in 1946.....The 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallaj (Credit Image: © NASA/ZUMA Wire)
