(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2021-01-28)The geo-political importance of the Arctic is growing while at the same time the onset of climate change has resulted in increasing environmental and social pressures both on Arctic states and the governance architecture through which Arctic issues ... -
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2016)Aim. Understanding the forces shaping biodiversity patterns, particularly for groups of organisms with key functional roles, will help predict ecosystem responses to environmental changes. Our aim was to evaluate the relative role of different drivers ...

(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 ...

(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2024-05-21)The diversity of functional feeding anatomy is particularly impressive in fishes and correlates with various interspecific ecological specializations. Intraspecific polymorphism can manifest in divergent feeding morphology and ecology, often along a ...

(University of Iceland, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, 2024-11-29)Behaviour is a fascinatingly flexible phenotype with immense diversity of manifestations. Despite this diversity, observation of animals makes it evident that individuals show consistent differences from one another in the way they behave. However, ...

(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2022-06)Biodiversity is declining globally, primarily driven by anthropogenic changes and alterations of natural habitats. In lowland Iceland, human impact has increased considerably in the past decades, often involving an increase in numbers of anthropogenic ...

(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2025-01)Biological invasions are a global phenomenon representing one of the biggest threats to biodiversity. Addressing species introductions, often marked by context dependency, requires the incorporation of multiple perspectives and disciplines to develop ...
-
(Springer Nature, 2017-12-18)Global change threatens invertebrate biodiversity and its central role in numerous ecosystem functions and services. Functional trait analyses have been advocated to uncover global mechanisms behind biodiversity responses to environmental change, but ...

Relating Depth and Diversity of Bivalvia and Gastropoda in Two Contrasting Sub-Arctic Marine Regions (Frontiers Media SA, 2019-03-22)The need to understand species distribution- and biodiversity patterns in high-latitude marine regions is immediate as these marine environments are undergoing rapid environmental changes, including ocean warming and ocean acidification. By the year ...

(Wiley, 2019-06-19)A major goal of evolutionary science is to understand how biological diversity is generated and altered. Despite considerable advances, we still have limited insight into how phenotypic variation arises and is sorted by natural selection. Here we argue ...
