ABSTRACT, This geothermal map shows the location\, temperature and nature of geothermal sites at the surface. A distinction is made between heat emerging in the form of water (vatn) and steam (gufa). Carbonic acid springs (kolsýrulaugar) are specially marked. The approximate boundaries of high temperature geothermal areas (háhitasvæði) are shown in magenta. Red triangles indicate locations where there are signs of subsurface geothermal activity\, while blue triangles represent known subglacial and submarine geothermal zones. Data on bedrock age\, type and composition comes from the Bedrock Geology Map of Iceland. ~~
