Tephra from historic and prehistoric eruptions of Oraefajøkull and Hekla, 1980: Greenland ice sheet evidence of postglacial volcanism and its climatic impact.
Postglacial activity on the Askja volcanic system, north Iceland, has been dominated by basaltic volcanism. Over 80% of Askja's postglacial basalts fall within a relatively narrow compositional range containing between 4 and 8 wt.% MgO. 1986-11-01 Several recent studies have highlighted the potential of combined 238 U– 230 Th and 235 U– 231 Pa systematics to constrain upwelling rates and the role of recycled mafic lithologies in mantle plume-derived basalts. Accordingly, we present measurements of the 231 Pa concentrations from 26 mafic volcanic rocks from Iceland, including off-axis basalts from the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, to 1992-07-01 karl@norvol.his.is) Temporal variation in the eruption rate and lava composition in the rift zones of Iceland is associated with deglaciation. Average eruption rates after the end of the last Acidity profiles along well dated Greenland ice cores reveal large volcanic eruptions in the Northern Hemisphere during the past 10,000 yr. Comparison with a temperature index shows that clustered New field observations, age constraints, and extensive chemical analyses define the complete postglacial eruptive history of the 170-km-long Western Volcanic Zone (WVZ) of Iceland, the ultraslow-spreading western boundary of the south Iceland microplate. We have identified 44 separate eruptive units, 10 of which are small-volume eruptions associated with the flanking Grimsnes system.
About 99 per cent of the rocks were regarded as basaltic, 1 per cent as rhyolitic and rocks of intermediate composition as nearly non-existent. Recent research has changed this picture. Central volcanoes producing acid and intermediate lava and tephra have played a considerable role both in the GUDMUNDSSON, A 1986, ' MECHANICAL ASPECTS OF POSTGLACIAL VOLCANISM AND TECTONICS OF THE REYKJANES PENINSULA, SOUTHWEST ICELAND ', … Icelandic Inst Nat Hist, Reykjavik.

Volcanism in Iceland is diverse, spanning almost the range of common terrestrial magma types and eruption styles (e.g. Thordarson and Larsen, 2007). Nonetheless, it is dominated by mafic magmatism and volcanism, representing ∼91% of the total post-glacial magma output and number of eruptions. Ice-land is also one of the most active and productive
On the basis of our current post-glacial eruption data set we estimate that Icelandic volcanism has produced around 2400 eruptions and about 566±100 km3 of erupted magma in the last 11 ka. Postglacial volcanism in Iceland.
Postglacial volcanism is confined to the neovolcanic zones where 30 active volcanic systems are responsible for most of the Holocene activity. On the basis of our current post-glacial eruption data

The most fatal volcanic eruption of Iceland's history was the so-called Skaftáreldar (fires of Skaftá) in 1783–84. The eruption was in the crater row Lakagígar (craters of Laki) southwest of Vatnajökull glacier. The craters are a part of a larger volcanic system with the subglacial Grímsvötn as a central volcano. Roughly a quarter of the Icelandic nation died because of the eruption. Postglacial Icelandic shield volcanoes were formed in monogenetic eruptions mainly in the early Holocene epoch. Shield volcanoes vary in their cone morphology and in the areal extent of the associated lava flows.
