Strombolian activity is a relatively low-level volcanic eruption, during which a modest amount of energy is released, according to the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology. #mtetna #italy #volcano #eruption The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.
