Optimum areas for further stations, permanent or temporary, have been identified on the basis of recent seismicity patterns. One suggestion is for more stations around SAU, where the particularly good alignment of polarizations suggests time-delay patterns will be the most informative. If the same events can be recorded at more than one station this will give much greater constraints on the anisotropy. In NE-Iceland, a station on Flatey Island, or on the coast further south from LEI will also record events suitable for shear-wave splitting analysis near the Húsavík transform fault and Grímsey zone.
