Some minor earthquake activity has been taking place in Kolbeinsey Ridge<\/a> during the past few hours. This earthquake swarm is small in nature, with largest earthquakes reaching the magnitude 2.4. Otherwise it remains quiet in this area.<\/p>\n Kolbeinsey ridge has seen some activity during past few weeks. But it might just be normal tectonic earthquakes taking place. So far nothing suggest any volcanism nature of this earthquake activity.<\/p>\n Kr\u00fdsuv\u00edk volcano<\/strong><\/p>\n During the past few hours. Kr\u00fdsuv\u00edk volcano<\/a> did see some earthquake activity. This activity is most likely to be tectonic in nature. As Reykjanes peninsula has frequent earthquake swarm that are tectonic in nature.<\/p>\n It remains rather quiet on Reykjanes besides this minor earthquake swarm today.<\/p>\n Katla volcano<\/strong><\/p>\n After rather interesting activity during the past few weeks. It seems that Katla volcano<\/a> is slowing down in earthquake activity. For now at least.
