a deep reservoir which was feeding the eruption.However, since
the end of September, inflation has been detected on Reykjanes Peninsula
(following the end of eruptive activity). The signal has been identified on
both GNSS and InSAR observations and broadly correlates to the area that was
deflating throughout the eruption. The most likely cause of the current
inflation is renewed magma inflow

No dispatches were received from ships and the Coast Guard did not go on an exploration flight.

On the Greenland Strait, northeasterly wind directions were dominant to begin with, and most of the month, but at the end of the month there were a few days with southwesterly wind

the 1960s and early 1970s showed that this line of thought was at the best wrong, but possibly
also dangerous. Since then the need for natural hazard management in the broad sense has
become more and more obvious in Iceland. The assessment of Icelandic natural hazards fit
very well into the frame proposed by the WMO at the end of the International Decade for

17000 in 2016, end of September. Following the seismicity from south to north, the northern most part
of the Reykjanes ridge had large seismic swarms in June and July 2015. The largest earthquake in the
swarms occurred on 1 July and had a magnitude Mlw5.0. Reykjanes peninsula had occasionally some
small swarms, mainly at the tip of the peninsula
