Icelandic volcano erupts again

BBC World Service - Science In Action, Icelandic volcano erupts again

Science in the heat of Iceland's new volcanic eruption.

Science in the heat of Iceland's new volcanic eruption.  Plus radio tracking giant migrating moths and synthetic biology making more adaptable crops.

We talk to volcano scientist Ed Marshall in Iceland about working at the volcano which has burst into life spectacularly again after a year of quiet.   

Also in the programme, we'll be following migrating moths across Europe in light aircraft to discover the remarkable secrets of their powers of navigation, and hearing how synthetic biology promises to create smarter and more adaptable genetically engineered crops.
