Lava is continuing to spurt from a volcano in south-western Iceland but the activity has calmed significantly since it erupted a day earlier.The eruption on Wednesday was the fifth and most powerful since the volcanic system near Grindavik reawakened in December after 800 years, gushing record levels of lava as its fissure grew to 2.1 miles in length.Volcanologist Dave McGarvie calculated that the amount of lava initially flowing from the crater could have buried Wembley Stadium in London, which seats 90,000 people, under 49ft of lava every minute.
