Kurzfassung

On August 31, 2014, the main effusive eruption started at Holuhraun in the on the Flædur flood plain (central Iceland), located ~10km north of Vatnajökull glacier and 47 km north east of the Bardarbunga ice-covered caldera, source of the Holuhraun eruption. The activity was declared finished on February 27, 2015, thus lasting for about 6 months. During these months the dyke feeding the eruption kept extracting the magma from the chamber located below the caldera causing the rare event of a gradual caldera collapse. In this context and because of the difficult access conditions of the Icelandic highlands, TanDEM-X remote sensing data is of particular interest. By producing high-resolution and accurate elevation models, TanDEM-X data allow quantification of elevation and volume changes observed within the volcanic system during the eruption. This study focuses on the space-time evolution of the Bardarbunga caldera collapse and the evolution of closed lava pathways in the Holuhraun lava field. It provides a unique opportunity to better characterize and understand the physical processes behind these topographical changes. A stack of 13 DEMs is employed for the caldera monitoring and imaging of the northwestern portion of the Vatnajökull glacier. The caldera volume loss has been temporally tracked, up to the final measured loss of about 1.4 cubic kilometers. Moreover, the dyke propagation from Bardarbunga to the Holuhraun lava field has been derived and a graben structure with a width of up to 1 km and a sinking of a few meters has been measured. This TanDEM-X data is also well suited for an in-depth geophysical and geological study. For instance, mechanical properties of the magma chamber have been estimated by analyzing volume losses and gains. The latter ones have been derived from nine DEMs processed over the Holuhraun area. In particular, this data allow the characterization of the late stage of the lava field, which was dominated by the gradual development of closed lava pathways. In differentiating the nine DEMs, the areas of uplift have been precisely localized and the volume estimates for this phase of the eruption have been improved, thus getting a more detailed picture of the closure of the eruption and its space-time evolution up to a few months after the end of the activity.
