    Short- and Long-term Model Simulations of the Evolution of Vatnajökull Ice Cap 
    Schmidt, Louise Steffensen (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2019)
    This dissertation describes the research results from applying regional climate models (RCMs) to simulate the near-past and future evolution of Vatnajökull, the largest ice cap in Iceland, and investigate the sensitivity of ablation to albedo and spring ...

    Weathering of volcanic tephra and its impact on soil formation south of Vatnajökull glacier 
    Bonatotzky, Theresa (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2021-06)
    Frequent tephra deposition and a steady influx of aeolian material of diverse origin dominate soil formation in Iceland. Little is known about the weathering behaviour, mineral formation and alteration of tephra and Icelandic soils after tephra deposition. ...
