After more than a year of unrest, a small effusive eruption commenced in Fagradalsfjall,
Iceland, on 19 March 2021. The eruption lasted six months. The first six weeks were …

Increased rates of deformation and seismicity are well-established precursors to volcanic
eruptions, and their interpretation forms the basis for eruption warnings worldwide. Rates of …

Among the various university courses I took for my geoscience degree, volcanology and
structural geology motivated me by far the most. Volcanoes and deformed rocks are indeed …

The 2021 Fagradalsfjall volcanic eruption in the Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland, was followed
by effusive lava outflow lasting six months. It was preceded by an intensive earthquake …

Following two periods of dike intrusion in 2021 at Fagradalsfjall, Iceland, one of which led to
an eruption, a third dike intrusion commenced on 30 July 2022. A sudden increase in …

In the last 130 years, Icelandic glaciers have experienced significant mass loss, and
numerous paraglacial slope failures have been documented in the country. One such failure …

The largest earthquakes in Iceland occur in the South Iceland seismic zone (SISZ) and the
Tjörnes fracture zone in the northeast. With the latter being primarily offshore, the seismic …

A considerable part of the seismic risk to the capital area of Iceland is provided by a series of
strike-slip faults at the mid-Atlantic plate boundary within a distance range of 15–35 km …

Seismic wave amplification due to localized site conditions or site-effects, is an important
aspect of regional seismic hazard assessment. In the absence of systematic studies of …

Tomographic imaging based on ambient seismic noise measurements has shown to be a
powerful tool, especially in areas like Iceland, where the microseism illumination is …
