The multiplicity of observable crustal processes in Iceland has made the country a good natural laboratory for multinational earthquake prediction research. Using Iceland as a natural laboratory for such research is based on the favorable geological or tectonic conditions found in Iceland. Little by little, the availability of the necessary technology for observations and the high level of geological and geophysical research is being built up to complement the natural facilities.
