Deformation due to Magma Movement and Ice Unloading at Katla Volcano
Katla volcano is situated in the south of Iceland, and is largely covered by the Mýrdalsjökull ice cap. Historically, Katla is one of the most active of Iceland’s volcanoes, with 20 eruptions in the last 1100 years, the last one being in 1918. The proximity of populated areas and international fligh...
