  • Aradóttir, Nína (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2024-04)
    This thesis describes the evidence of palaeo-ice streams in northeast Iceland. Ice streams within the Iceland Ice Sheet (IIS) had been previously proposed, but limited studies existed on their geomorphology. The aim of this study was to advance the ...
  • Welling, Johannes (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2020-10)
    Climate change constitutes one of the most pressing challenges faced by tourism today. Tourism research on climate-induced environmental changes has contributed to an increase in knowledge about adaptation during the last decade. Despite a general ...
  • Nedelciu, Claudiu (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2021-02)
    Phosphorus is an essential yet irreplaceable macronutrient for agriculture and thus plays a key role in global food security. Most of the phosphate fertilizers are produced from phosphate rock, a finite mineral resource that is mined and processed at ...
  • Eggertsson, Hannes (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science, 2019-06)
    A fundamental requisite for genetic studies is an accurate determination of sequence variation. While human genome sequence diversity is increasingly well characterized, there is a need for efficient ways to utilize this knowledge in sequence analysis. ...
  • Hube, Selina (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2023)
    Towards fulfilling increasingly stricter wastewater discharge standards, there is a need for developing reliable decentralized wastewater treatment processes. The goal of this research was to optimize gravity-driven membrane (GDM) filtration and assess ...
  • Li, Siqi (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2022-12)
    Post-eruptive deformation following volcanic eruptions may originate from continued magma movements, or reflect delayed and continued Earth adjustment due to co-eruptive events, often referred to as viscoelastic relaxation. Post-eruptive deformation ...
  • Hrafnkelsdóttir, Soffía Margrét (University of Iceland, School of Education, Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences, 2020-08)
    Bakgrunnur: Unglingsárin eru tími mikilla breytinga og þroska hvað varðar líkamlegt og andlegt atgervi. Á þessum árum eykst tíðni andlegra kvilla og svefntruflana, sem geta haft alvarlegar afleiðingar fyrir unglinga og fylgt þeim inn í fullorðinsárin. ...
  • Steinhaeuser, Sarah Sophie (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, 2019-08)
    The microenvironment is increasingly being recognized as a key player in supporting cancer progression. Therefore, investigating heterotypic interactions between cancer cells and their microenvironment is important for improving our understanding ...
  • Walser III, Joe (University of Iceland, School of Humanities, Faculty of History and Philosophy, 2021-03)
    Volcanic eruptions can cause significant human health and environmental threats both during and after their event due to the hazardous materials and gases that are actively or passively released into the surrounding environment. Historical records ...
  • Karlsdottir, Marta (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science, 2021-06)
    Geothermal energy utilization contributes to less than 0.5% of the world’s electricity demand and is not well represented in energy policies and environmental studies of energy systems. Research on geothermal potential and environmental impacts shows ...
  • Sigurvinsson, Jón Ásgeir (University of Iceland, School of Humanities, Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies, 2019)
    Hinn svokallaði þakkarsálmur Hiskía konungs í 38. Kafla Jesaja hefur löngum þótt afar erfiður viðfangs, ekki síst vegna meints bágborins varðveisluástands 16. vers, sem auk v. 17a, hefur verið dæmt óskiljanlegt og jafnvel kallað “martröð riskýrandans” ...
  • Eyþórsson, Darri (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2023)
    Snow resources worldwide are undergoing extensive changes in response to widespread and rapid changing of the global climate. These resources are vital in many areas and changes to them have and will continue to impact human societies and ecosystems ...
  • Baldursdóttir, Anna Heiða (University of Iceland, School of Humanities, Faculty of History and Philosophy, 2022-12-20)
    Viðfangsefni doktorsritgerðarinnar er að draga fram heimildasöfn (e. archives) og greina þá efnismenningu (e. material culture) sem þau búa yfir, eða með öðrum orðum að kanna samband manna og hluta. Rannsóknaraðferðin krefst þess að víða sé leitað fanga ...
  • Eddudóttir, Sigrún Dögg (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2016-12)
    For most of the Holocene the main driver of vegetation and environmental change in Iceland was climate, although intermittent volcanic events had short term impacts. This changed with the Norse colonisation in the late 9th century AD, from when land ...
  • Knobloch, Stephen (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2019-05)
    Sponges (phylum Porifera) are considered one of the oldest extant lineages of the animal kingdom. Their close association with microorganism makes them suitable for studying early animal-microbe symbiosis and expanding our understanding of host-microbe ...
  • Kaldakvísl Eygerðardóttir, Dalrún (University of Iceland, School of Humanities, Faculty of History and Philosophy, 2022)
    Ráðskonur eiga sér langa sögu í íslensku samfélagi. Meginmarkmið rannsóknarinnar er að rannsaka störf og félagslega stöðu ráðskvenna sem störfuðu á einkaheimilum í sveit á Íslandi á tímabilinu 1950–2000. Í bakgrunnskafla er einnig fjallað stuttlega um ...
