Historic magmatism on the Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland:a snap-shot of melt generation at a ridge segment

We present new compositional data on a suite of historic lava flows from the Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland. They were erupted over a short time period between c. 940 and c. 1340 AD and provide a snap-shot view of melt generation and evolution processes beneath this onshore, 65 km long, ridge segment....
