Eyjafjallajökull is one of the smaller ice caps of Iceland, north of Skógar and west of Mýrdalsjökull. The ice cap covers the caldera of a volcano with a summit elevation of 1,651 metres; the volcano has erupted frequently since the Last Glacial Period, most in 2010. Eyjafjallajökull consists of a volcano covered by an ice cap; the ice cap covers an area of about 100 square kilometres. The main outlet glaciers are to the north: Gígjökull, flowing into Lónið, Steinholtsjökull, flowing into Steinholtslón. In 1967, there was a massive landslide on the Steinholtsjökull glacial tongue. On 16 January 1967 at 13:47:55 there was an explosion on the glacier, it can be timed. When about 15,000,000 cubic metres of material hit the glacier a massive amount of air and water began to move out from under the glacier into the lagoon at the foot of the glacier; the mountain itself, a stratovolcano, stands 1,651 metres at its highest point, has a crater 3–4 kilometres in diameter, open to the north. The crater rim has three main peaks: 1,500 metres.

The south face of the mountain was once part of Iceland's coastline, from which, over thousands of years, the sea has retreated some 5 kilometres. The former coastline now consists of sheer cliffs with many waterfalls, of which the best known is Skógafoss. In strong winds, the water of the smaller falls can be blown up the mountain; the area between the mountain and the present coast is a flat strand, 2 to 5 km wide, called Eyjafjöll. The Eyjafjallajökull volcano last erupted on 14th April 2010 in Iceland, it left behind vast ash clouds so large that in some areas daylight was obscured. The cloud not only darkened the sky but interfered with hundreds of plane flights. However, the people of Iceland were not concerned about the ash clouds: they were more concerned about flooding; that year all the residents close to the volcano had to evacuate in case the area flooded. When the volcano erupted, all the melted ice had to go somewhere. Luckily it didn’t flood that much: most of it went into rivers, but if it had flooded down the farm valleys it could have swept away all the farms in the valley.

The farms in the valley were however covered in a soft layer of ash, which the farmers thought would give bad crops, but the warmth and nutrition from the ash enabled the crops to grow rather well. The name means "glacier" of the Eyjafjöll; the word jökull, meaning glacier or ice cap, is a cognate with the Middle English word ikel surviving in the -icle of English icicle. Eyjafjöll is the name given to the southern side of the volcanic massif together with the small mountains which form the foot of the volcano; the name Eyjafjöll is made up of the words eyja, the plural word fjöll, meaning fells or mountains, together means: "the mountains of the islands". The name refers to the close by archipelago of Vestmannaeyjar; the word fjalla is the genitive plural of fjöll, so Eyjafjalla is the genitive form of Eyjafjöll and means: "of the Eyjafjöll". A literal part-by-part translation of Eyjafjallajökull would thus be "Islands' Mountains' ice cap". Eyjafjallajökull is sometimes referred to by the numeronym "E15".

The stratovolcano, whose vents follow an east-west trend, is composed of basalt to andesite lavas. Most of its historical eruptions have been explosive. However, fissure vents occur on both sides of the volcano; the volcano is fed by a magma chamber under the mountain, which in turn derives from the tectonic divergence of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. It is part of a chain of volcanoes stretching across Iceland, its nearest active neighbours are Katla, to the northeast, Eldfell, on Heimaey, to the southwest. The volcano is thought to be related to Katla geologically, in that eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull have been followed by eruptions of Katla. Eyjafjallajökull erupted in the years 920, 1612 and 2010; some damage was caused by a minor eruption in 1821. Notably, the ash released from the eruption contained a large fraction of fluoride, which in high doses may harm the bone structure of cattle, horses and humans; the eruption caused some small and medium glacier runs and flooding in nearby rivers Markarfljót and Holtsá.

The eruptive phase started on 19 and 20 December 1821 by a series of explosive eruptions and continued over the next several days. The sources describe heavy ash fall in the area around the volcano to the south and west. After that event the sequence of eruptions continued on a more subdued level until June 1822. From the end of June until the beginning of August 1822, another sequence of explosive eruptions followed; the eruption columns were shot to considerable heights, with ashfall in both the far north of the country, in Eyjafjörður, in the southwest, on the peninsula of Seltjarnarnes near Reykjavík. The period from August to December 1822 seemed quieter, but farmers attributed the death of cattle and sheep in the Eyjafjörður area to poisoning from this eruption, which modern analysis identifies as fluoride poisoning; some small glacier runs occurred in the river Holtsá. A bigger one flooded the plains near the river Markarfljót.. In 1823, some men went hiking up on Eyjafjallajökull to inspect the craters.

The 1972 Protocol amending the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs was a protocol that made several changes to the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs. It highlighted the need for treatment and rehabilitation of drug addicts, instructing parties to take "all practicable measures for the prevention of abuse of psychotropic substances and for the early identification, education, after-care and social reintegration of the persons involved", it expanded the International Narcotics Control Board from 11 members to 13 members. In addition, the Protocol added Article 21 bis, Limitation of Production of Opium, which allowed the Board to deduct from a nation's opium production quota the amounts it determines have been produced within that nation and introduced into the illicit traffic; this could happen as a result of failing to control either illicit production or diversion of licitly produced opium to illicit purposes. In this way, the Board can punish a nation that does not control its illicit opium traffic by imposing an economic sanction on its medicinal opium industry.

This provision is ineffective on nations. The Protocol adds a provision to Article 22 stating that "A Party prohibiting cultivation of the opium poppy or the cannabis plant shall take appropriate measures to seize any plants illicitly cultivated and destroy them, except for small quantities required by the Party for scientific and research purposes"; the effect of this amendment is to require nations to enforce the laws on their books against cultivation of illicit drugs. The Protocol adds a provision to Article 36 allowing for "treatment, after-care and social reintegration" as an alternative to incarceration of drug abusers. A Commentary to the Protocol was written by Adolf Lande, former Secretary of the Permanent Central Narcotics Board and Drug Supervisory Body, under the responsibility of the United Nations Office of Legal Affairs; the Commentary was designed to help nations interpret the Convention. As of 2013, the Protocol has been ratified by 125 states, it was signed by 54 states. Signatures and ratifications.
