    Evaluation of MODIS Albedo Product over Ice Caps in Iceland and Impact of Volcanic Eruptions on Their Albedo 
    Gascoin, Simon; Guðmundsson, Sverrir; Adalgeirsdottir, Gudfinna; Pálsson, Finnur; Schmidt, Louise; Berthier, Etienne; Björnsson, Helgi (MDPI AG, 2017-04-25)
    Albedo is a key variable in the response of glaciers to climate. In Iceland, large albedo variations of the ice caps may be caused by the deposition of volcanic ash (tephra). Sparse in situ measurements are insufficient to characterize the spatial ...

    Glacial history of the Åsgardfonna Ice Cap, NE Spitsbergen, since the last glaciation 
    Allaart, Lis; Schomacker, Anders; Larsen, Nicolaj K.; Nørmark, Egon; Rydningen, Tom Arne; Farnsworth, Wesley Randall; Retelle, Michael; Brynjólfsson, Skafti; Forwick, Matthias; Kjellman, Sofia E. (2021-01-01)
    The response of glaciers and ice caps to past climate change provides important insight into how they will react to ongoing and future global warming. In Svalbard, the Holocene glacial history has been studied for many cirque and valley glaciers. ...

    Impact of Icelandic dust and volcanic ash on snow and ice 
    Wittmann, Monika (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2017-01)
    Located on the mid-Atlantic ridge, Iceland has the largest volcaniclastic desert on Earth, created by glacio-fluvial processes and frequent volcanic eruptions. Due to its location along the North Atlantic Storm track, Iceland frequently experiences ...
