Description*:
MAGIC (Magma Iceland)
Abstract:
In January 2020, a swarm of earthquakes started under Thorbjorn volcano, Reykjanes, SW Iceland, associated to the uplift of up to 0.5 cm per day. Concern in Iceland was growing and the Iceland Meteorological Office suggested at that time that possibly magma intruded in the crust at shallow depth (3 to 9 km). The ruption occured on 19.03.2021. The GFZ started a seismological Hazard and Risk Team (HART), as soon as February 2020 in cooperation with IMO, ISOR and the University of Iceland. The interrogator was located in Grindavik and was connected to a standard telecom cable. This dataset comprise a selection of wave-forms recorded along an optical fibre of 21 km length. The subset consists of 40 channels at 100 Hz (spatially stacked 9x). The whole time period from January until August 2020 is covered, with a total size of 496 GB. The data is MiniSEED at 4096 bytes record length with STEIM2. Specific full data set is available upon request to the authors.
