ÁGRIP SETLAGAÞYKKT íAXARFJARÐARDJÚPI FUNDIN MEÐ BYLGJUBROTSMÆLINGUM Samhliða jarðskjálftamælingum í Tjörnesbrota- beltinu, í ágúst 1991, vora gerðar bylgjubrotsmæl- ingar á 70 km langri mælilínu eftir Axarfjarðardjúpi. Sprengt var á 35 stöðum og gögnin skráð á 18 neð- ansjávarskjálftamæla, þar af voru 32 skot og 4 mælar á bylgjubrotssniðinu (Mynd 2.). Bylgjubrotsmæling- amar leiddu í Ijós 1.9-2.3 km þykk setlög í Axarfjarð- ardjúpi. Setlögin virðast skiptast í tvær einingar sem hvor er um 1 km á þykkt. Setlögin liggja á berggrunni sem hefur P-bylgjuhraða 4.3 km/sek. Dýpi á Lag 3 (6.5 km/sek) er 5-6.5 km sem er svipað og á Norð- urlandi. Ef gert er ráð fyrir að hraði setmyndunar sé 500-1000 m/Ma má segja að berggrunnurinn í Ax- arfjarðardjúpi sé 2.2-4.4 milljón ára, þ.e. frá síðasta hluta Tertíertímabilsins. JÖKULL,No. 42, 1992 23
