The earthquake prone area of South Iceland has been a major research target in the framework of an international project on earthquake risk mitigation. High quality monitoring networks are installed there and much data was collected before and after two big earthquakes in 2000.
The special natural conditions in Iceland as well as high level technology, were the basis for multidisciplinary and multinational cooperation for studying crustal processes, especially processes ahead of large earthquakes. This work leads to new innovative results and real time…
Using the special natural conditions in Iceland as a ""test area"", this book describes the major efforts in earthquake prediction research worldwide. The results obtained in Iceland are of significance for earthquake prediction research around the world.
