Supplementary data is provided in the linked Excel file Radiogenic isotopic ratios and major element contents in Icelandic volcanics are used to evaluate mantle end-member compositions and their spatial distribution in the Icelandic mantle. A database, entitled the Icelandic Volcanics Isotopic Database (IVID), which includes previously reported 87Sr/86Sr, εNd, εHf, 206Pb/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb, 208Pb/204Pb, 187Os/188Os, 3He/4He, δ18O and U-Th decay series isotopic ratios measured in Icelandic volcanics, was compiled. Major and trace element contents were also included in the IVID. Isotopic ratios were evaluated, and filtered based on improvements in analytical methods, major element chemistry and other sample characteristics. The filtered database was used to map the radiogenic isotopic composition of Icelandic volcanics by creating isoscapes superimposed on a map of Iceland. Spatial analyses demonstrate that volcanics from the off-rift volcanic zones tend to be geochemically more enriched (higher 87Sr/86Sr and 206Pb/204Pb and lower 143Nd/144Nd and 176Hf/177Hf) in their radiogenic isotopic composition than volcanics from the axial rift zones.
