  • The Best of Iceland
    04_178416-ch01.qxp 5/29/08 8:59 AM Page 1 1 The Best of Iceland On each trip to Iceland, we are always struck by how often other travelers are—or intend to be—repeat visitors. Many come year after year, never exhausting Iceland’s endless variations of magnificent scenery and adventure. Returning travelers immedi- ately recognize the crisp, invigorating polar air, and what W. H. Auden called “the most magical light of anywhere on earth.” Iceland’s astonishing beauty often has an austere, primitive, or surreal cast that arouses reverence, wonderment, mystery, and awe. Lasting impressions could include a lone tuft of wildflowers amid a bleak desert moonscape or a fantastical promenade of icebergs calved into a lake from a magisterial glacier. The Icelandic people—freedom-loving, egalitarian, self-reliant, and worldly—are equally exceptional. They established a parliamentary democracy over a millennium ago, and today write, publish, purchase, and read more books per capita than any peo- ple on earth. Reykjavík, their capital, has become one of the world’s most fashionable urban hot spots. In November 2007, the U.N. named Iceland the world’s best coun- try to live in, based on life expectancy, education levels, medical care, income, and other criteria. 1 The Best Natural Wonders • Glymur: Iceland’s tallest waterfall is • Blue Lagoon: The central activity nimble and graceful: Streamlets at this spa—Iceland’s top tourist descend like ribbons of a maypole attraction—is bathing in a shallow, into a fathomless canyon mantled in opaque, blue-green lagoon amid a bird nests and lush mosses.

  • Exploration Techniques for Locating Offshore Geothermal Resources
    PROCEEDINGS, Thirty-Eighth Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering Stanford University, Stanford, California, February 11-13, 2013 SGP-TR-198 EXPLORATION TECHNIQUES FOR LOCATING OFFSHORE GOETHERMAL ENERGY NEAR ICELAND Darren Atkins and Haraldur Audunsson Reykjavik Energy Graduate School of Sustainable Systems Reykjavik University Menntavegi 1 101 Reykjavik, Iceland E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Iceland might benefit from these energy sources. In this paper we look into potential offshore geothermal The world’s oceans hold an abundance of geothermal areas around Iceland and the exploration techniques resources, none of which are being utilized today. that may be used for locating and evaluating these The majority of these high temperature resources lie resources. Although not easily justifiable today, along mid-ocean ridges. Since Iceland is uniquely offshore geothermal production may in the near situated on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, which runs right future become economical and will help the through the center of Iceland, it is likely that there are geothermal industry to grow. Preparing for an high temperature geothermal resources offshore expansion of geothermal energy production into the Iceland. We describe exploration techniques that can sea will be beneficial to Iceland, as well as other be used for locating hydrothermal vents such as areas, as it will open up more options for clean towing a variety of temperature, chemical, and renewable energy production. Part of this optical sensors from a ship and the use of various preparation is to start exploring these offshore underwater vehicles. Then geophysical methods such resources. If ocean resources become feasible and as resistivity, magnetic, seismic, and gravity surveys economically attractive, it could open up possibilities for defining reservoir characteristics were looked at.

  • (Sula Bassana) in Iceland Are Based on Two Personal Visits in 1932 and 1933, and on One by My Brother, Sub.-Lieut
    (100) THE GANNET COLONIES OF ICELAND. BY BRIAN ROBERTS, M.B.O.U. THE following notes on colonies of the Gannet (Sula bassana) in Iceland are based on two personal visits in 1932 and 1933, and on one by my brother, Sub.-Lieut. P. L. Roberts, R.N., in 1934. There are at present six islands off the Icelandic coast where Gannets breed, and four of these—Brandur, Hellisey, Sulnasker and Geldungur, are close together in the Vestmannaeyjar, a small group of volcanic islands off the south-west coast. There is also a colony on Eldey off Reykjanes, and another on Grfmsey off the north coast. In his monograph on the Gannet (1), J. H. Gurney mentions all of these except Hellisey, which is the largest colony in the Vestmannaeyjar group, but the information he was able to obtain was scanty, and his estimate of the numbers was, in his own words, " open to amendment ". On August 18th, 1932, I visited the Vestmannaeyjar colonies in company with J. A. Beckett. A full account of this expedition, together with a map and photograph, has already been published (2), so a short summary only will be given here. It was too rough to land on any of the islands, but we were able to form a fairly accurate estimate of the number of breeding-birds by sailing slowly round each rock close under the cliffs. The method of assessing the numbers was to count all the adult birds on the rocks themselves. The census was greatly facilitated by the geological structure of the rock, which caused the birds to sit in definite rows on the ledges, and it would otherwise have been almost impossible to count them.

    ANNAL OF MAGMATIC EVENTS IN ICELAND 1900-2010 Páll Einarsson Institute of Earth Sciences, University of Iceland (June 2018) Introduction This annal is compiled in order to facilitate the use of the Icelandic Analog Seismograph Archive (seismis.hi.is) for the studies of magmatic events in the crust of Iceland. Both confirmed eruptions and unconfirmed events are listed, but in separate chapters. A large part of the information on the activity of Icelandic volcanoes is difficult to access. A good part of it is assembled in the books and publications of Sigurður Þórarinsson, notably his treatises of Hekla (Þórarinsson 1967), the Vatnajökull region (Þórarinsson 1974) and Katla (Þórarinsson 1975). The rest is scattered throughout the literature, to a large extent in Icelandic, and inaccessible to researchers elsewhere. Recent overviews are provided in the book „Náttúruvá“ (Sólnes et al., 2013) and on the webpage of the Catalog of Icelandic Volcanoes (icelandicvolcanos.is). An overview of short-term seismic precursors of Icelandic eruptions is given by Einarsson (2018). Terms and definitions Volcanological terms used in Iceland may in some instances deviate from the ones used in other areas. This results from the somewhat special circumstances of a subaerial divergent plate boundary. Volcanic structures are exposed on the surface that are usually submerged by ocean and the volcanism often is of areal extent. Walker (1993) used the term central volcano to describe areas of intense volcanism in the Tertiary lavas of Eastern Iceland and found them to be associated with dyke swarms. He used the term volcanic system for the structural unit consisting of a central volcano and associated dyke swarms.

It is a process that borrows tools from terrestrial planning, but that must also be adapted to address the unique challenges and qualities of the marine environment. It involves gathering spatial information in order to better visualize and understand the marine environment and to better inform management decisions that plan for the future. Recent interest sparked MSP initiatives around the world, most notably in Europe. Iceland, a country that has always depended on the sea for survival and which today still relies heavily on living marine resources, lacks an integrated management framework.
