This project is a second-generation analysis of the ICEMELT and HOTSPOT data sets that will focus on four areas where additional work could lead to a fundamental new understanding of plume dynamics and plume-ridge interactions at Iceland. This work will (1) determine seismic velocity structure in the crust and uppermost mantle, (2) constrain upper mantle flow from mantle anisotropy, (3) improve mantle velocity structures by application of advanced methods, and (4) integrate seismic and geodynamic models.

该项目是对ICEMELT和HOTSPOT数据集的第二代分析，该分析将集中在四个领域，在这些领域中，额外的工作可能会导致对冰岛的羽流动力学和羽毛状互动的基本了解。 这项工作将（1）确定地壳和上层地幔中的地震速度结构，（2）（2）约束从地幔各向异性的地幔流量，（3）通过应用高级方法改善地幔速度结构，（4）（4）整合癫痫发作和毛动动力模型。
