A small pond about 60 x 100 m fills the bottom of the Kerid crater at the northern end of the Tjarnarhólar crater row in the Grímsnes volcanic system. The crater is elliptical in shape, 180 x 280 m. The Seyðishólar and Kerhóll cinder cones, visible in the background to the north, were active about 9,500 and 7,050 years ago respectively. Seyðishólar is the only Holocene eruption recognized to have had tephra dispersal outside of the volcanic field.

Ringkasan geologi

Grímsnes is a relatively small volcanic system located SE of Thingvallavatn lake. It is displaced about 15-20 km to the east of the other en-echelon group of volcanic fields of the Western Volcanic Zone extending across the Reykjanes Peninsula. Its lava flows cover 54 km2 and were erupted from a group of 11 fissures that produced a series of NE-SW-trending crater rows. The eruptions of its basaltic lavas were considered to have been restricted to a relatively short interval between about 6,500 and 5,500 years ago, but radiocarbon dating showed that some of the lava flows were emplaced between about 7,400 and 8,900 years ago.
