    Bacterial diversity in Icelandic cold spring sources and in relation to the groundwater amphipod Crangonyx islandicus 
    Gudmundsdottir, Ragnhildur; Kreiling, Agnes-Katharina; Kristjánsson, Bjarni Kristófer; Marteinsson, Viggó; Palsson, Snaebjorn (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2019-10-02)
    Crangonyx islandicus is a groundwater amphipod endemic to Iceland, considered to have survived the Ice Ages in subglacial refugia. Currently the species is found in spring sources in lava fields along the tectonic plate boundary of the country. The ...

    Chironomidae fauna of springs in Iceland – assessing the ecological relevance behind Tuxen’s spring classification 
    Kreiling, Agnes-Katharina; Olafsson, Jon S.; Palsson, Snaebjorn; Kristjansson, Bjarni K. (PAGEPress Publications, 2018-05-31)
    In 1937, S.L. Tuxen studied the animal community of hot springs in Iceland, and classified springs according to their relative temperature into cold, tepid, and hot. Eighty years after Tuxen’s study, we revisited some of the hot springs in Skagafjörður, ...

    Distribution of Recent non-marine ostracods in Icelandic lakes, springs, and cave pools 
    Alkalaj, Jovana; Hrafnsdottir, Thora; Ingimarsson, Finnur; Smith, Robin J; Kreiling, Agnes-Katharina; Mischke, Steffen (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2019-04-25)
    Ostracods in Icelandic freshwaters have seldom been researched, with the most comprehensive record from the 1930s. There is a need to update our knowledge of the distribution of ostracods in Iceland as they are an important link in these ecosystems as ...

    Invertebrate diversity in Icelandic freshwater springs 
    Kreiling, Agnes-Katharina (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2020-10)
    Freshwater springs are thermally stable environments which are largely unaffected by changes in air temperature. They could thus have the potential to buffer rising temperatures and serve as small-scale refugia for aquatic invertebrates in a warming ...

    Seasonal variation in the invertebrate community and diet of a top fish predator in a thermally stable spring 
    Kreiling, Agnes-Katharina; O’Gorman, Eoin J.; Pálsson, Snæbjörn; Benhaïm, David; Leblanc, Camille A.; Ólafsson, Jón S.; Kristjánsson, Bjarni K. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-09-18)
    Many life-history events in aquatic invertebrates are triggered by seasonal changes in water temperature, but other ecological factors may be important as well. To rule out the confounding effects of changing water temperature, we studied the seasonal ...
