The Icelandic volcanic system is a unique geological feature located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet. This system is characterized by numerous active volcanoes, geothermal areas, and rift valleys, making it one of the most volcanically active regions in the world. Iceland's volcanic activity is driven by the presence of a hotspot beneath the island, which contributes to the formation of new land and the frequent eruptions of volcanoes like Eyjafjallajökull and Katla. The interplay of tectonic activity and volcanic processes shapes the landscape and influences the local climate.
