Figure 4. Histograms showing the monthly number of earthquakes for each year during 1978-1985 with a hor-
izontal error of 2 km and less. A total of 230 events are associated with the eastern cluster and 68 events
with the western cluster. No earthquakes with this epicentral accuracy were located within the western cluster
(Goðabunga) during the first four months of the year. – Samanlagður mánaðarlegur fjöldi staðsettra skjálfta á
árunum 1978-1985. Óvissa í staðsetningum er innan við 2 km. Alls voru staðsettir 230 skjálftar í eystri þyrping-
unni og 68 skjálftar í þeirri vestari. Athyglisvert er að engir skjálftar voru staðsettir undir vestari þyrpingunni
fyrstu fjóra mánuði ársins, á þessu tímabili.
