Tectonic earthquake swarms in the Northern Volcanic Zone, Iceland
… to detect and locate microseismicity in the Northern Volcanic Zone, Iceland, from 13 years of continuous seismic data recorded on a dense local network. Through comparison with a comprehensive catalogue of previously analysed events, I demonstrate that this new, automated algorithm is capable …

The 2014-15 Bárðarbunga-Holuhraun magmatic rifting episode: A seismic study
… faults with 60 inward dipping planes on the northern and southern side, indicating a symmetric caldera structure. Detailed analysis of the earthquake source mechanisms shows that 90% can be explained by a double-couple solution, which is in contrast to results from previous studies of …

Seismic anisotropy and microseismicity: from crustal formation to subduction termination
… re-equilibration with, the mantle in subduction zones. I investigate the structure of the crust and upper mantle of the Earth in two regions that represent different endmembers in this cycle through the analysis of microseismicity and seismic anisotropy, seeking to learn more about the stresses …

The structure and seismicity of Icelandic rifts
… a dense network of seismometers in the remote volcanic highlands in central Iceland, and used the passive seismic data collected from this network to explore crustal structure and volcanic processes in the extensional rift zones. My analysis of persistent seismicity located in an intervening …
