    Forage quality of leaf fodder from the main woody species in Iceland and its potential use for livestock in the past and present 
    Hejcman, M.; Hejcmanová, P.; Pavlů, V.; Thorhallsdottir, Anna Gudrun (Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-04-27)
    Woody species played, and in many Nordic regions still play, a very important role in livestock feeding. However, forage quality (contents of macroelements and fibre fractions) of the leaves of common woody species is often inadequate. The aim of our ...

    Microsatellite diversity of the Nordic type of goats in relation to breed conservation: how relevant is pure ancestry? 
    Lenstra, J.A.; Tigchelaar, J.; Biebach, I.; Kantanen, J.; Nielsen, V.H.; Pompanon, F.; Naderi, S.; Rezaei, H.R.; Saether, N.; Ertugrul, O.; Grossen, C.; Camenisch, G.; Vos-Loohuis, M.; van Straten, M.; de Poel, E.A.; Windig, J.; Oldenbroek, K.; Hallsson, Jon (Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-06)

    The Spatial Variation of Dust Particulate Matter Concentrations during Two Icelandic Dust Storms in 2015 
    Olafsson, Haraldur; Arnalds, Olafur; Dagsson-Waldhauserova, Pavla; Magnúsdóttir, Agnes Ösp (MDPI AG, 2016-06-03)
    Particulate matter mass concentrations and size fractions of PM1, PM2.5, PM4, PM10, and PM15 measured in transversal horizontal profile of two dust storms in southwestern Iceland are presented. Images from a camera network were used to estimate the ...
