(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2021-10)Climate warming in sub-Arctic regions leads to shifts in plant communities and retreating glaciers. Mosses and lichens contribute to important ecosystem processes in these environments, including nitrogen fixation via their microbiome. The first objective ... -
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2018-12-14)Krill are an important component of the Icelandic marine ecosystem. Given their important ecological niche, as conveyors of biological production between phytoplankton and higher trophic levels, fluctuations in krill abundance can have large impacts ...

(2024-12)To stay within the 1.5 degree warming limit, changes to lifestyle and personal consumption are necessary to mitigate the effects of climate change. From a consumptive perspective, the emissions from affluent countries and individuals are greatly exceeding ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Social Sciences, Faculty of Sociology, Anthropology and Folkloristics, 2022)Climate change is contributing to shifts in the magnitude and scale of hazards, and the emergence of environmental risks in areas where they were previously unknown. In the Öræfi district of south-east Iceland, a fracture discovered by farmers gathering ...
