  • Phoca Vitulina) in Icelandic Waters
    Monitoring trends in the abundance of harbour seals (Phoca vitulina) in Icelandic waters Erlingur Hauksson Fornistekkur 14, IS-109 Reykjavik, Iceland ABSTRACT Harbours seal ( Phoca vitulina) numbers along the coast of Iceland were monitored by aerial survey in the period 1980-2006. Trends in the abundance of the harbour seal population on the whole coast and in coastal regions of Iceland waters were estimated using ANCOVA on the sur - vey counts, corrected for the influence of several covariates. Harbour seals were found in every coastal area, but were most abundant in Faxaflói, Breiðafjörður and on the northwest coast in the beginning of this study. Harbour seal numbers declined significantly at a rate of res t = -0.04 (SE 0.005) y r-1 during this period. Decline was highest in Faxaflói and at the south coast ( ≅7%), while the east coast experienced a significant but lesser ( ≅1%) decline. Other coastal areas did not show significant trends. The northwest coast was the richest harbour seal area in Iceland in 2006. In Icelandic waters seals are commercially harvested, and unreported but probably high numbers of harbour seals are killed intentionally by shooting and accidentally in fishing gear each year. These factors likely contributed to the overall observed decline in seal numbers. Hauksson, E. 2010. Monitoring trends in the abundance of harbour seals ( Phoca vitulina ) in Icelandic waters.

  • Iceland Straight Baselines
    2 STRAIGHT BASELINES: ICELAND Iceland's most recent action altering their system of straight baselines was the issuance on March 11, 1961, of the Regulations Concerning the Fishery Jurisdiction of Iceland. The Regulations were promulgated on April 22, 1961. These 1961 Regulations alter the straight baselines of the preceding decrees of 1952 and 1958. An exchange of notes between Iceland and the United Kingdom, on March 11, 1961, specified the changes that were to be made to the 1958 decree and incorporated in the new 1961 declaration. Iceland claims a four nautical-mile territorial sea and a 12 nautical mile fishery limit, as measured from the straight baselines. Iceland, although a signatory, is not a party to any of the four 1958 Geneva conventions on the law of the sea. These conventions concern the territorial sea and contiguous zone, the high seas, the continental shelf, and fishing and conservation of living resources of the high seas. The pertinent articles of the Regulations concerning the Fishery Jurisdiction of Iceland are as follows: Article 1 The fishery jurisdiction of Iceland shall be delimited 12 nautical miles outside base lines drawn between the following points: 1. Horn 66° 27'4 N Lat. 22° 24'5 W. Long. 2. Asbudarrif 66° 08'1 N 20° 11'2 W. 3. Siglunes 66° 11'9 N 18° 50'1 W. 4. Flatey 66° 10'3 N 17° 50'5 W. 5. Lagey 66° 17'8 N 17° 07'0 W. 6.

  • Samræmist Grunnlínukerfi Íslands Hafréttarsamningi Sameinuðu Þjóðanna?
    SAMRÆMIST GRUNNLÍNUKERFI ÍSLANDS HAFRÉTTARSAMNINGI SAMEINUÐU ÞJÓÐANNA? Svava Pétursdóttir 2016 ML í lögfræði Höfundur: Svava Pétursdóttir Kennitala: 180686-2239 Leiðbeinandi: Dr. Bjarni Már Magnússon Lagadeild School of Law Útdráttur Samræmist grunnlínukerfi Íslands hafréttarsamningi Sameinuðu þjóðanna? Hafsvæði ríkja eru ekki mæld frá strandlengjunni sem slíkri heldur grunnlínum. Almennt skal grunnlína fylgja stórstraumsfjöruborði strandlengjunnar. Þegar strandlengja er mjög vogskorin og óregluleg eða ef strandeyjaröð er í næsta nágrenni strandlengjunnar getur ríki dregið beina grunnlínu á milli viðeigandi grunnlínupunkta. Í kringum Ísland eru dregnar beinar grunnlínur. Ríkjum er í sjálfsvald sett hvernig eigi að draga grunnlínu. Þrátt fyrir það hefur Alþjóðadómstóllinn í Haag lagt áherslu á að afmörkun hafsvæða hafi ætíð alþjóðlega hlið. Hún geti þannig ekki einungis verið undir vilja strandríkis komin. Engu að síður samræmist framkvæmd ríkja varðandi beinar grunnlínur oft á tíðum ekki þjóðarétti. Mörg ríki hafa mótmælt grunnlínum annarra ríkja, má þar helst nefna Bandaríkin. Ekkert ríki hefur mótmælt grunnlínukerfi Íslands. Megintilgangur þessarar ritgerðar er að svara því hvort grunnlínukerfi Íslands samræmist hafréttarsamningi Sameinuðu þjóðanna, en grunnlínukerfi Íslands hefur sætt nokkurri gagnrýni af hálfu fræðimanna. Helsta niðurstaðan er sú að grunnlínukerfi Íslands sé að meginstefnu til í samræmi við ákvæði hafréttarsamningsins. Þó eru uppi álitaefni varðandi suðurströnd landsins en ljóst er að strandlengjan er ekki jafn vogskorin og óregluleg þar eins og annarsstaðar. Þrátt fyrir það hafa mörg ríki óbeint viðurkennt grunnlínur landsins með því að gera samninga við íslenska ríkið sem byggist að einhverju leyti á grunnlínukerfinu. Hækkun sjávarmáls getur meðal annars leitt til þess að grunnlínur taki breytingum þar sem grunnlínupunktar hverfi í sæ. Komist var að þeirri niðurstöðu að mörk landhelgi og efnahagslögsögu Íslands breytist í samræmi við breytingar á grunnlínum en að mörk landgrunnsins haldist óbreytt.

  • 40. Magmatic Development of the Southeast Greenland Margin and Evolution of the Iceland Plume: Geochemical Constraints from Leg 1521
    Saunders, A.D., Larsen, H.C., and Wise, S.W., Jr. (Eds.), 1998 Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program, Scientific Results, Vol. 152 40. MAGMATIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE SOUTHEAST GREENLAND MARGIN AND EVOLUTION OF THE ICELAND PLUME: GEOCHEMICAL CONSTRAINTS FROM LEG 1521 Andrew D. Saunders,2 Hans Christian Larsen,3 and J. Godfrey Fitton4 ABSTRACT Leg 152, located on the southeast Greenland Margin, successfully recovered igneous rocks from three drill sites along a transect at 63°N: 915, 917, and 918. The margin is characterized by a 150-km-wide sequence of seaward-dipping reflectors (SDRS), and thus has an architecture typical of volcanic rifted margins. Site 917 was located close to the inboard, feather-edge of the SDRS, on the continental shelf, and drilling recovered rocks ranging in composition from picrite to dacite. Site 915 was immediately oceanward of Site 917, and Site 918 was located on the continental rise, in the main sequence of the SDRS. Drill- ing at both Sites 915 and 918 recovered basalt. Ash horizons were cored in the sediment column at Site 918 and Site 919 in the Irminger Basin. The oldest recovered lavas (the Lower and Middle Series from Site 917), erupted approximately 61 m.y. ago, sit on steeply dipping pre-rift metasediments. They are variably contaminated by ancient amphibolite- and granulite-facies crust, consistent with eruption in a continental setting before plate breakup. A few of the Lower Series lavas are high-MgO basalts. The amount of contamination decreased dramatically in the succeeding Upper Series lavas, which also show evidence for a rapid shallowing of the average depth of melting, and contain a high proportion of picrites and high-MgO basalts.

  • The Skagafjörður Volcanic Zone – an Ephemeral Rift Zone
    - 65 - The Skagafjörður Volcanic Zone – An ephemeral Rift Zone Árni Hjartarson Geological Museum, Øster Voldgade 5-7, DK-1350 Copenhagen K National Energy Authority, Grensásvegur 9, 108 Reykjavik, Iceland Fax +354 568 8896 [email protected] Abstract In the Skagafjörður district, North Iceland, an unconformity with a sedimentary layer divides the strata pile into Neogene and Pleistocene volcanic successions. Neogene volcanism faded out 4-5 Ma when the area drifted out of the volcanic zone near the diverging boundaries of the North American and Eurasian crustal plates, after which erosion took over for about a million years. Volcanism started again at the beginning of the Pleistocene. Lava flows covered the eroded Neogene landscape and an uncon- formity was formed. It is proposed that the Pleistocene volcanic rocks above the unconformity all belong to a short-lived axial rift zone, the Skagafjörður zone. Eruptive sites belonging to this zone can be found dispersed in the area between the Hofsjökull central volcano and the mouth of Skagafjörður. The oldest volcanic formations of the Pleistocene rock series are from about 1.7 Ma, when rifting in the area started. The activity culminated in the early Pleistocene but declined in the late Pleistocene, and in the Holocene the activity seems to have been restricted entirely to the Hofsjökull central volcano. A prominent fault and fissure system belongs to the Skagafjörður zone. The tectonics indicate extension. It is suggested that a decline in the activity of the Iceland Mantle Plume, 2-3 million years ago, caused a rift jump away from the hot spot below Vatnajökull and formation of a temporary rift zone, the Skagafjörður zone, which for a while bridged the shortest way between the Reykjanes-Langjökull zone and Kolbeinsey ridge.

  • RIDGE 2000 Integrated Study Site Proposal for Hotspot-Influenced
    RIDGE 2000 Integrated Study Site Proposal for Hotspot-Influenced Oceanic Spreading Centers: Iceland and the Reykjanes and Kolbeinsey Ridges Summary We propose that the Reykjanes Ridge, Iceland, and the Kolbeinsey Ridge be the integrated study site for hotspot-influenced spreading centers. Whereas previous RIDGE efforts have focused on spreading rate as the primary variable, the Iceland-MAR system offers an opportunity to examine how mantle temperature and source compositions influence processes in the mantle and crust, and how such processes influence and are affected by hydrothermal venting and biological communities along mid-ocean ridges. Because of the vastly different intrinsic length scales of processes from mantle to microbes at hotspot-influenced spreading centers, the comprehensive investigations outlined in the RIDGE Integrated Studies Program will have to be carried out in nested study areas, where regions of small-scale processes (e.g., vent) are encompassed by the study areas of large-scale processes (e.g., mantle flow). We envision that integrated studies in this area will first involve a characterization of long-wavelength variations in physical structure, chemistry, hydrothermal venting, and biological communities over the region of plume influence (~MAR 57º-71.5ºN). This characterization will fill in the gaps of an already extensive database. It will then be followed by studies focused on the linkages between the crust, hydrothermal circulation, and biological communities at an active volcanic and hydrothermal area (such as the Steinahóll vent site on the Reykjanes Ridge 63º06’N) to examine variations on length scales of tens of kilometers. A secondary submarine site at a different end of the spectrum of plume influence will provide a comparison for isolating the effects of plume influence from that of spreading rate and oblique plate-spreading if the primary site is on the Reykjanes Ridge.
