  • Hauri, Erik H.; Maclennan, J.; McKenzie, D.; Gronvold, K.; Óskarsson, N.; Shimizu, N. (Geological Society of America, 2017-11-16)
    Primitive basalt melt inclusions from Borgarhraun, northern Iceland, display large correlated variations in CO2 and nonvolatile incompatible trace elements (ITEs) such as Nb, Th, Rb, and Ba. The average CO2/ITE ratios of the Borgarhraun melt inclusion ...
  • Liu, E. J.; Cashman, K. V.; Rust, A. C.; Höskuldsson, Ármann (Springer Nature, 2017-09-07)
    Growing evidence for significant magmatic vesiculation prior to magma-water interaction (MWI) has brought into question the use of ‘diagnostic’ features, such as low vesicularities and blocky morphologies, to identify hydromagmatic pyroclasts. We address ...

    The Holuhraun–Bárdarbunga (Iceland) eruption lasted approximately 6 months. Magma propagated laterally through a 40 km long dyke, while Bárdarbunga caldera was collapsing. This event was intensely monitored, providing an opportunity to investigate the ...

    Many examples of exposed giant dike swarms can be found where lateral magma flow exceeded hundreds of kilometers. We show that massive magma flow into dikes can be established with only modest overpressure in a magma body, if a large enough pathway ...
  • Nikkola, Paavo (Faculty of Science, University of Helsinki; Faculty of Earth Sciences, University of Iceland, 2020-03-20)
    This thesis provides insights into the petrogenesis of Iceland basalts via three subprojects. The first uses olivine macrocrysts as a proxy for mantle melting conditions below Iceland, the second utilizes petrological thermobarometry to resolve the ...

    Anthropogenic global climate change is causing ice mass loss in all glacierized regions in the world. Iceland provides conditions that make it an efficient laboratory to study the effects of retreating glaciers on magmatic activity, as retreating ...
  • Arnadottir, Thora; Haines, John; Geirsson, Halldor; Hreinsdóttir, Sigrún (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2018-12)
    The South Iceland Seismic Zone (SISZ) accommodates E‐W translation due to oblique spreading between the North American and the Eurasian plates in South Iceland with ruptures on N‐S faults. Strain is released in earthquake sequences that last days to ...
  • Caudron, Corentin; White, Robert S.; Green, Robert G.; Woods, Jennifer; Agustsdottir, Thorbjorg; Donaldson, Clare; Greenfield, Tim; Rivalta, Eleonora; Brandsdóttir, Bryndís (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2018-01)
    Magma is transported in brittle rock through dikes and sills. This movement may be accompanied by the release of seismic energy that can be tracked from the Earth's surface. Locating dikes and deciphering their dynamics is therefore of prime importance ...
  • Caracciolo, Alberto (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2021-02)
    The physico-chemical properties of magma storage reservoirs in multi-level magmatic systems may change with time, along with the timescales at which crystals and melts are processed throughout the crust. In this thesis, I use an integrated approach ...

    Large volume effusive eruptions with relatively minor observed precursory signals are at odds with widely used models to interpret volcano deformation. Here we propose a new modelling framework that resolves this discrepancy by accounting for magma ...
  • Neave, David A.; Hartley, Margaret E.; Maclennan, John; Edmonds, Marie; Thordarson, Thorvaldur (Elsevier BV, 2017-05)
    Melt inclusions formed during the early stages of magmatic evolution trap primitive melt compositions and enable the volatile contents of primary melts and the mantle to be estimated. However, the syn-and post-entrapment behaviour of volatiles in ...
