The situation in Iceland for establishing a tephrochronological time scale is very good. This is due to the great number of volcanic eruptions in post glacial time, a great range of variation in chemistry between tephra layers, a rapid thickening of the soil, separating layers with small age difference, and the existence of detailed accounts of many historical eruptions.
