Leó Kristjánsson Figure 4. A very simplified scheme of outcrops sampled by Kristjánsson (2015) and of those added in the present paper (profile names underlined). Lines indicate some of the definite correlations be- tween individual sites which are based on lithol- ogy and the apparent dip but primarily on a coinci- dence of remanence directions (Table 2). Approx- imate distances between the profiles are indicated. – Mjög einfölduð mynd af opnum sem safnað var kjarnasýnum úr 2012–2014 og 2014–2016, sumum tengingum milli þeirra, og fjarlægðum. The large black dots in Figure 5 denote VGP po- sitions from flows DV 9, DW 4, 9, DQ 1, 3 and DI 4 which clearly lie more than 10◦ away from any of the poles making up the red composite pole path from Kristjánsson’s (2015) profiles. The smaller black dots similarly represent poles from flows DE 5, 8, 10, 16 and DF 9, 11, 12 in the profiles of Kristjánsson and Jóhannesson (1996). They are selected for insertion here to emphasize that the movement of the virtual pole during this excursion must be truly complex. Its wanderings do not seem to be confined to any pre- ferred intervals in longitude or latitude. These results show that exposures belonging to the Kleifakot geomagnetic event reach for at least 5– 6 kilometers along strike on both sides of Ísafjörður, measured from profile DF on the southeast side and DV on the northwest side. The new profiles and some of the correlations between them are shown schematically in Figure 4. Table 2 is a list of pairs of remanence directions employed for correlation purposes by Kristjánsson and Jóhannesson (1996), Kristjánsson (2015) and the present study. ON THE INTENSITY OF THE PALEOMAGNETIC FIELD Estimates of the absolute intensity of the geomagnetic field during emplacement of igneous bodies are of sci- entific value regarding its long-term characteristics, especially during transitions and excursions when it is relatively weak (Kristjánsson 2013, Fig. 7). One might expect that such measurements in situations like the Kleifakot geomagnetic event could yield in- teresting results about the field when in an unstable state. From our demagnetization results and other evi- dence on the lavas from the Kleifakot event in Ísa- fjarðardjúp (Kristjánsson, 2015, p. 315), they are however unlikely to pass suitability tests for paleoin- tensity studies. In several of the excursion outcrops at higher altitude in profile JD (Figure 2a), the VRM component in some samples is however small and can be removed by AF treatment at 10 mT or less with minimal effect on the TRM. They might possi- bly provide some satisfactory paleointensity results, if supported by consistency between samples collected from widely spaced sites in a unit as well as between 90 JÖKULL No. 66, 2016
