(Geological Society of America, 2021-05-19)Glaciovolcanic deposits at Tongariro and Ruapehu volcanoes, New Zealand, represent diverse styles of interaction between wet-based glaciers and andesitic lava. There are iceconfined lavas, and also hydroclastic breccia and subaqueous pyroclastic deposits ... -
(Elsevier BV, 2020-05)This paper reports the results of corrosion study for carbon steel, austenitic stainless steel, as well as titanium and nickel-based alloys which were tested in a simulated superheated geothermal environment (SSGE) in flow-through reactors to investigate ...

(Frontiers Media SA, 2020-02-07)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 ...

(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-06-29)The majority of Earth’s volcanic eruptions occur beneath the sea, but the limited number of direct observations and samples limits our understanding of these unseen events. Subaerial eruptions lend some insight, but direct extrapolation from the subaerial ...

Deep-sea fragmentation style of Havre revealed by dendrogrammatic analyses of particle morphometry (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-09-30)In 2012, the eruption of deep-sea volcano Havre produced an abundance of fine ash at a depth of ~ 1000 m below sea level. In this study the 2D shapes of Havre ash grains retrieved from the seafloor were compared quantitatively with those of particles ...

(Copernicus GmbH, 2019-06-12)Surtsey, the youngest of the islands of Vestmannaeyjar, is an oceanic volcano created by explosive basaltic eruptions during 1963-1967 off the southern coast of Iceland. The subsurface deposits of the volcano were first sampled by a cored borehole in ...
-
(Copernicus GmbH, 2020-02-21)Dissolved Fe (DFe) samples from the GEOVIDE voyage (GEOTRACES GA01, May-June 2014) in the North Atlantic Ocean were analyzed using a seaFAST-pico™ coupled to an Element XR sector field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (SF-ICP-MS) and provided ...

(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2019-04-25)Ostracods in Icelandic freshwaters have seldom been researched, with the most comprehensive record from the 1930s. There is a need to update our knowledge of the distribution of ostracods in Iceland as they are an important link in these ecosystems as ...
-
(Elsevier BV, 2019-03-01)Andisols are carbon-rich soils that persist in volcanic regions with cool climates. They are the main soil type in Iceland, where there are also large areas of premature or degraded mineral soils with the possible potential to become andisols. This ...
-
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2018-05-22)The Holocene climatic optimum was a period 8–5 kyr ago when annual mean surface temperatures in Greenland were 2–3°C warmer than present-day values. However, this warming left little imprint on commonly used temperature proxies often used to derive the ...
-
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2019-01-09)The characterization of magnetic minerals in rocks often uses methods that measure induced magnetization. When rocks, sediments or soils contain two magnetic phases, in which one has a high saturation magnetization (MS), for example magnetite, and the ...
-
(Springer, 2022-02-28)Real-time monitoring of volcanic ash plumes with the aim to estimate the mass eruption rate is crucial for predicting atmospheric ash concentration. Mass eruption rates are usually assessed by 0D and 1D plume models, which are fast and require only a ...
-
(European Association of Geochemistry, 2015)The effusive six months long 2014-2015 Bárðarbunga eruption (31 August-27 February) was the largest in Iceland for more than 200 years, producing 1.6 ± 0.3 km3 of lava. The total SO2 emission was 11 ± 5 Mt, more than the amount emitted from Europe ...
-
(Springer, 2022-07-08)Analyzing video data from an uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) of two short-lived dome building events at Anak Krakatau volcano (Indonesia), we determine vertical and horizontal movements of the dome surface prior to explosions, as well as initial eruption ...
-
(MDPI AG, 2017-04-25)Albedo is a key variable in the response of glaciers to climate. In Iceland, large albedo variations of the ice caps may be caused by the deposition of volcanic ash (tephra). Sparse in situ measurements are insufficient to characterize the spatial ...
-
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2023-03-14)Hjalli-Ölfus is the westernmost segment of the east-west transform South Iceland Seismic Zone (SISZ), which is the eastward extension of the ∼ENE-trending transtensional Reykjanes Peninsula (RP). Historically, the area has shown an interactive behavior ...
-
(Elsevier BV, 2019-10)Mineralization of water dissolved carbon dioxide injected into basaltic rocks occurs within two years in field-scale settings. Here we present the results from a CO2-water-basaltic glass laboratory experiment conducted at 50 °C and 80 bar pressure in ...
-
(Iceland Glaciological Society / Jöklarannsóknarfélag Íslands, 2021-12-08)The 23-day long eruption of the ice-covered Katla volcano in 1918 began on October 12 and was over by November 4. Seismicity preceding and accompanying the onset had already started by 11:30 on October 12, while the eruption broke through the glacier ...
-
(Joklarannsoknafelag Islands, 2021-12-08)Due to poor preservation and lack of proximal tephra thickness data, no comprehensive isopach map has existed for the tephra layer from the major eruption of the Katla volcano in 1918. We present such a map obtained by combining existing data on the ...
-
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018-02)Contiguous sampling of ice spanning key intervals of the deglaciation from the Greenland ice cores of NGRIP, GRIP and NEEM has revealed three new silicic cryptotephra deposits that are geochemically similar to the well‐known Borrobol Tephra (BT). The ...
