Task 2:

Regional scale Finite Element modelling of the dynamic movements following episodes of volcanic activity will help planning the supply of temporal instruments from other projects and/or future network configurations. This work will be started on the basis of existing deformation data from GPS and ground observations of German geodetic groups during and after the Krafla fissure eruptions in North Iceland. This work will be linked to, and gain from, the future permanent recordings of the HOTSPOT Observatory.
