The map shows the location of the damaging earthquake that struck yesterday afternoon. Most movement took place along the fault shown in green.
The black arrows denote right-lateral, strike-slip faulting. The same type/about-imo/news/nr/1312

From the recorded data we obtained nearly 120 FPS of the earthquakes and assigned them with the
quality factors. We grouped the earthquakes into several groups according to their geographical
locations, and investigated the obtained results in each group separately. The overall results in the study
area show the dominating normal type of faulting and the N-S

The first map shows cloud cover measurements at a few stations in Iceland, along with information about cloud type and lowest cloud altitude (see following diagram). This information can be useful in evaluating the quality of the forecast.
Cloud cover observations are made every three hours at a few stations in Iceland. The latest observation is shown

of the glaciers at their maximum at the end of the Little Ice Age (about 1890) and also at the end of the 20th century. On the map surge-type glaciers are distinguished from non-surge-type glaciers with a darker green color. A symbol shows volcanic calderas which are located underneath the glaciers. Also shown are place-names of all of the glaciers that have been given names.
