Climate change will have a big impact on Iceland and Icelandic waters, as on most other countries and regions. Almost all of Iceland‘s glaciers are receding, and scientists predict that they may largely vanish in the next 100-200 years. Of special concern to Iceland is ocean acidification, which may have a profound impact on the marine ecosystem. R...
In one of the first scientific descriptions ofthe Icelandic climate, Thorvaldsson (1881) noted that Iceland had a maritimeclimate that was much milder than its position on the globe might suggest. Indata from 1981–2010, Iceland annual average temperatures ranged from 6°C at thesouth coast to 3°C at the north coast, with a substantially colder highl...
It iswell established that during the Holocene Climatic Optimum 8000–6000 years ago,summer conditions were fairly warm at high northern latitudes. This wasfollowed by a millennial scale cooling trend with shorter climate fluctuationssuperimposed. In Iceland, lacustrine data point to a decline in summertemperatures and in the surrounding oceanic reg...

Most Icelandic glaciers reached their maximumHolocene extent towards the end of the 19th century. Glacial retreatsince then amounts to about 2100 km2, a third of which has occurredsince the turn of the millennium. The glacial retreat was punctuated by aninterval of glacier growth from the 1960s. This phase reached a peak in the1980s when about two ...
Iceland already has considerable experience inthe risk management of natural hazards and the many of the risks associatedwith climate change impacts can be dealt with using existing policy tools. Riskmanagement is one tool to deal with climate change adaptation, but with theexception of the hydropower sector climate change adaptation has not beense...
