The origin of the warm groundwater near Lake Mývatn, NE Iceland, traced by stable isotopes

The origin of the warm groundwater which feeds Lake Mývatn is unknown, but it has been affected by volcanic episodes as well as geothermal activity and utilisation. In this contribution stable isotopes of hydrogen (2H), oxygen (18O), sulphur (34S), chlorine (37Cl) and strontium (86Sr and 87Sr) in 20...
