    The 1912 Iceland earthquake rupture: Growth and development of a nascent transform system 
    Bjarnason, Ingi Þorleifur; Cowie, Patience; Anders, Mark H.; Seeber, Leonardo; Scholz, Christopher H. (The Seismological Society of America, 1993)
    We have mapped in detail surface ruptures of the 1912 magnitude 7.0 strike-slip earthquake in south Iceland. This earthquake ruptured fresh basalt flows that had covered the pre-existing fault. The observed style of surface fracturing closely matches ...

    Evolution of Stresses Over Conjugate Faults in Hjalli‐Ölfus, South Iceland 
    Mozhikunnath Parameswaran, Revathy; Bjarnason, Ingi Þorleifur; Þorbjarnardóttir, Bergþóra Sólveig (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 ...

    Jarðskjálftar á Íslandi 
    Björnsson, Sveinbjörn (Hið íslenzka náttúrufræðifélag, 1976)
    Larger earthquakes in Iceland occur mainly in two zones, a narrow E-W trending zone in S-Iceland and 75 km broad zone off the northern coast. Destruction and ground displacement due to the earthquake sequences of J784 (Ms 7.5-8), 1896 Mg 7-7.5) and ...

    Relative locations of earthquakes in the Tjörnes Fracture Zone 
    Einarsson, Páll (Soc. Sci. Islandica, 1976)
    The seismicity of the Tjörnes Fracture Zone is distributed over a zone 150 km long and 80 km wide. Teleseismic locations of earthquakes within this zone show a diffuse pattern of epicenters that does not easily lend itself to tectonic interpretation. ...

    Seismicity on Conjugate Faults in Ölfus, South Iceland: Case Study of the 1998 Hjalli‐Ölfus Earthquake 
    Mozhikunnath Parameswaran, Revathy; Þorbjarnardóttir, Bergþóra Sólveig; Stefánsson, Ragnar; Bjarnason, Ingi Þorleifur (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2020-08)
    The Ölfus seismic belt lies at the western end of the ~E‐W sinistral transform shear zone in South Iceland, called the South Iceland Seismic Zone (SISZ), where most seismicity and surface faulting show ~N‐S dextral slip. Unlike the rest of SISZ, ...
