    A chronosequence approach to estimate the regional soil organic carbon stock on moraines of two glacial fore-fields in SE-Iceland 
    Vilmundardóttir, Olga Kolbrún; Gísladóttir, Guðrún; Lal, Rattan (Informa UK Limited, 2017-05-24)
    SOC has received increased attention over the last decades because of its role as an option to mitigate the effects of increased anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. In Iceland, the loss of vegetation and soil due to land-use and natural processes ...

    Early indicators of soil formation in the Icelandic sub-arctic highlands 
    Mankasingh, Utra; Gísladóttir, Guðrún (Elsevier BV, 2019-03-01)
    Andisols are carbon-rich soils that persist in volcanic regions with cool climates. They are the main soil type in Iceland, where there are also large areas of premature or degraded mineral soils with the possible potential to become andisols. This ...

    Hekla Volcano, Iceland, in the 20th Century: Lava Volumes, Production Rates, and Effusion Rates 
    Pedersen, Gro; Belart, Joaquín M. C.; Magnússon, Eyjólfur; Vilmundardóttir, Olga Kolbrún; Kizel, Fadi; Sigurmundsson, Friðþór Sófus; Gísladóttir, Guðrún; Benediktsson, Jon Atli (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2018-02-22)
    Lava flow thicknesses, volumes, and effusion rates provide essential information for understanding the behavior of eruptions and their associated deformation signals. Preeruption and posteruption elevation models were generated from historical stereo ...

    Historical lava flow fields at Hekla volcano, South Iceland 
    Pedersen, Gro; Montalvo, Jorge; Einarsson, Páll; Vilmundardóttir, Olga Kolbrún; Sigurmundsson, Friðþór Sófus; Belart, Joaquín M. C.; Hjartardottir, Asta Rut; Kizel, Fadi; Rustowicz, Rose; Falco, Nicola; Gísladóttir, Guðrún; Benediktsson, Jon Atli (Iceland Glaciological Society and Geoscience Society of IcelandJöklarannsóknafélags Íslands og Jarðfræðafélags Íslands, 2018)
    Hekla volcano is known to have erupted at least 23 times in historical time (last 1100 years); often producing mixed eruptions of tephra and lava. The lava flow volumes from the 20th century have amounted 80% to almost 100% of the entire erupted ...

    Landscape change in the Icelandic highland: A long-term record of the impacts of land use, climate and volcanism 
    Eddudóttir, Sigrún Dögg; Erlendsson, Egill; Gísladóttir, Guðrún (Elsevier BV, 2020-07-15)
    Agriculture has been practiced in Iceland since settlement (landnám; AD 877). This has caused changes in vegetation communities, soil erosion, desertification and loss of carbon stocks. Little data exist regarding vegetation and ecosystems in the ...

    Of mosses and men: Plant succession, soil development and soil carbon accretion in the sub-Arctic volcanic landscape of Hekla, Iceland 
    Vilmundardóttir, Olga Kolbrún; Sigurmundsson, Friðþór Sófus; Pedersen, Gro; Belart, Joaquín M. C.; Kizel, Fadi; Falco, Nicola; Benediktsson, Jon Atli; Gísladóttir, Guðrún (SAGE Publications, 2018-10-07)
    Lava flows pose a hazard in volcanic environments and reset ecosystem development. A succession of dated lava flows provides the possibility to estimate the direction and rates of ecosystem development and can be used to predict future development. We ...

    The sublime attraction of active volcanoes: An exploration of tourists’ experiences during a long-distance hiking route in Iceland 
    Heimisdóttir, Þórhildur; Sæþórsdóttir, Anna; Gísladóttir, Guðrún (SAGE Publications, 2019-03-08)
    This article attempts to understand the value and meaning of a hazardous natural environment for tourists. It focuses on the attraction of volcanic sites in the eyes of sensation-seeking hikers. The research is based on a participatory observation study ...
