What is the name of Iceland's moss landform?

This landform is called Icelandic tundra.

The whole Iceland "blends ice and fire", with glacier landforms and volcanic landforms all over the country, which has become a major feature of Iceland's landforms. For example, Rieffel Volcanic Cone (63 50' N, 65 438+09 65 438+03' W) adjacent to Murdahl Glacier in Iceland is one of the typical volcanic landforms. During the volcanic eruption under Murdahl glacier in southern Iceland, the Mai Rieffel volcanic cone was formed due to the accumulation of consolidated volcanic ash and other volcanic eruptions. It broke away from the glacier about 10 thousand years ago and was constantly eroded by the river water flowing out of the glacier. It stands on the plain in a perfect cone shape, with a height of 200 meters. The volcanic cone is covered with a bryophyte called grimmia. This plant thrives on cooled lava. Due to different soil moisture, it presents various colors from silver gray to bright green. It is one of the few plants growing in Iceland.
