ing results have already been obtained (Árnason
1969). A short ice core from Bárdarbunga has
been analysed and it shows a remarkable cor-
relation witli temperature variations since
about 1918. A very interesting feature is that
tephra layers in the glacier ice give a fairly
reliable dating of the ice, possibly during the
last 1000 years.
