Abstract
Island je po mnogoþemu fascinantan dio Zemlje. Izvana je prekriven snijegom i ledom (kako mu i samo ime govori) te okružen morem, a iznutra užaren (odatle i boje na zastavi Islanda: bijela, plava i crvena). U usporedbi s „ostatkom” Zemlje nerijetko djeluje „izvanzemaljski”. Svoj izniman krajolik može zahvaliti brojnim (oko 130), uglavnom bazaltnim vulkanskim planinama, poljima lave, snijega i leda, gejzirima, gleþerskim lagunama i ledenjacima. Island spada u vulkanski najaktivnija podruþja na Zemlji jer se nalazi na srednjoatlantskome grebenu, odnosno leži na granici izmeÿu sjevernoameriþke i euroazijske tektonske ploþe koje se razmiþu. Srednjoatlantski greben prolazi od sjevera prema jugu manje-više sredinom otoka te na krajnjemu jugozapadnom dijelu Islanda (poluotok Reykjanes) nastavlja u Atlantski ocean. Tridesetak kilometara južno od Reykjavika, približno na mjestu gdje poþinje poluotok Reykjanes, nalazi se planina Bláfjöll (Plava planina, slika 1) i krater Stori-Bolli širok oko 150 m u promjeru.
