deepest lake[edit]

wasn´t jökulsárlón measured to be the deepest lake in iceland back in about 2008? if no-one disagrees i´ll come back and change the outdated statement.--Lotsofmagnets (talk) 15:50, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Without any actual knowledge, it would seem that askja is probably deeper, since it is a flooded caldera, and presumably jökulsárlón formed on top of a sand flat following the glacial retreat. Also jökulsárlón is barely above sea level, so if it were significantly deep, its bottom would be well below sea level, which is plausible I guess.. de Bivort 17:51, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Jökulsárlón is the deepest lake in Iceland since 2009 (^[1]).Reykholt (talk) 16:12, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the update! de Bivort 17:57, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2014 Tsunami?[edit]

There is a listing for a tsunami related to the collapse of the side of the caldera in the List of historical tsunamis. I think that event is notable enough to be included here. Elriana (talk) 19:36, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
