MARC recordHolocene eruptions within the Katla volcanic system, south Iceland: characteristics and environmental impact / Gudhrún Larsen.
| Title: | Holocene eruptions within the Katla volcanic system, south Iceland: characteristics and environmental impact / Gudhrún Larsen. |
| Author(s): | Larsen, Gudhrún. |
| Date: | 2000. |
| In: | Jökull. (2000.), Vol. 49 (2000) |
| Abstract: | Volcanism takes three forms: explosive basaltic along fissures in Mýrdalsjökull caldera, explosive silicic from vents associated with caldera, and predominantly effusive basaltic involving both central volcano and fissure swarm. Typical eruptions are accompanied by basaltic tephra fall, lightning and jökulhlaups. 20 have occurred in last 11 centuries. Eldgjá eruption in 10th Cent. radically changed landscape and hydrology; hlaups since then have escaped eastwards, extending sandur southwards. |
| Notes: | Jökull. Vol. 49 :1-28 (2000). |
