roads at ice-free areas (Fig. 2; Magnu´sson 2003: 2931;
Magnu´sson et al. 2005a). The surface of all the ice caps
on 12 August 1998 consisted mainly of ice and wet firn,
yielding a dominating surface backscatter C-band signal
(5.6-cm wavelength) with negligible backscatter from the
shallow ice and wet snow penetrating parts of the signal.
The signal penetration is typically less

the fissure system to the north was
recorded in the early hours of 16 August 2014. The activity migrated
from the caldera towards the southeast; then took a sharp turn to
the northeast, reflecting a 49 km long horizontal magma intrusion.
A short-lived eruption occurred on 29 August. Two days later on 31
August, another more powerful eruption began farther to the north
which lasted until 27
