Transportation to/from Iceland not included. -Enrollment limited to 18 students This project-driven course in geologic mapping and volcanology will explore Iceland from the south coast where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge comes ashore to the highlands near the focus of the Iceland mantle plume. Students undertake two major mapping projects and a number of shorter physical volcanology-oriented projects. Subjects that will be considered include basaltic and rhyolitic lava flows, tephra characterization, ignimbrites, phreatomagmatic features, subglacial volcanism, volcano monitoring, and geothermal power. Projects will be conducted on active volcanic systems, in Late Pleistocene and Holocene volcanic fields, and in the older Miocene volcanic stratigraphy exposed in glacial valleys and fjords of Iceland. We plan to visit the ongoing Geldinadalir/Fagradalsfjall eruption site. 5 credit option, +500$, adds major synthesis report putting geology observed in course into wider literature research context.
