A Recent Volcanic Eruption, Holuhraun, in the Central Highlands of Iceland as a Mars analog: The 2018 Field Campaign of FELDSPAR
In summer 2018, FELDSPAR conducted an analog sampling expedition to the Holuhraun volcanoin the central highlands of Iceland that erupted from August 2014 to February 2015. Holuhraun hassteep gradients within an otherwise relatively controlled region, and thus served as the primaryMars analog site f...
