It’s been ten years since I started writing about earthquake activity in Iceland. First articles are from 27th September 2010 as can be seen here. At the beginning I used to call this website Iceland, earthquake and volcano blog if my memory is correct. I changed this to Iceland geology so I would be able to cover all aspects of Iceland if I needed too. Along with other few minor experiments over the years that failed but are recorded into this website history. Over the last 10 years I have only covered four eruptions. This are those eruptions.
Grímsfjall – May 2011 – Major eruption
Katla – July 2011 – Minor eruption
Hamarinn – July 2011 – Minor eruption (same week as Katla volcano minor eruption)
Bárðarbunga – August 2014 to February 2015 – Major eruption
Most of this website lifetime it has been a sub-domain website on my jonfr.com (Icelandic) website. This summer I made the chose to change that as that allows me to do more and to keep it separate from my main website if needed for any reason. I hope that I can continue to write about Icelandic volcanoes and earthquakes for the next ten years, just slightly less broke would also be nice for the next ten years.
I want to thank everyone that has supported my work over the last ten years. It has helped keep me working and keeping this website going for the last ten years when everything seemed impossible.
Thanks for all the articles you have produced.
10 years you make us be there a little more .10 Years and already been there twice .
Jón, many congratulations on the 10th anniversary of your blog. I have enjoyed it very much over those years, and I look forward to doing so in the future. As the previous comment mentioned your posts have certainly raised the profile of Iceland.
Congratulations to you and your blog! Let’s hope for big things to come in the next ten years. Let’s have a poll on which volcano will be next. I pick grimsvotn for 2021. If not tjornes fracture zone will belsh out before grim… What do you think Jon.
Gratulerer så mye
I don’t have any idea what volcano is going to erupt next for sure. Grímsfjall (Grímsvötn) might be next since that volcano is getting ready for an eruption.
Thank you for your work! I think there will be an eruption this year, because I was in Iceland End of August for three weeks and so I was 2010, 2011, 2014 🙂
