As different parts of Iceland resemble each others, and there is a reason to trace similar origin of them, could we then compare the parts geologically?
The Icelandic geological triplets of West Fjords Peninsula, North Coast and East Fjords
This can easily be done, even trying to find new things in one area by referring to what has been found in the other two areas.
Caution: Seeing this, people tend to overreact, trying to point something out which is not relevant. But this is science, with preconditions, calculations and results – and simplifications as well.
I am a geologist, graduated from the University of Iceland, and taught geology for a few years. I have gained some knowledge about Earth's inner structure, so I provide this website as my contribution to answer one of the greatest questions remaining within the realm of geoscience. Experiments show that the mantle should form convection rolls when close to the melting point. I took this literally, and calculated the dimensions and shape of these mantle convection rolls. Then I compare that model with the surface. This makes it possible to provide many interesting examples about geology found on my blog.
