GreenlandMediterranean SeaDuring the summer of 1967, three high-frequency, high-gain, and highly portable seismographs were operated at seventy-eight sites throughout Iceland. Over 99% of the more than 1000 events recorded were found to lie in nine regions with radii of less than about 5 km...

Iceland, with an area of about 100,000 km2, straddling the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the Greenland-Scotland rise, is surrounded by a shelf of shallow depth, mostly 100–300 m, with an area larger than that of Iceland itself (Fig 1). The shelf edge is in some places relatively steep, es...
Results: A total of 13 studies were included in the analyses. It was not possible to identify ASD prevalence studies for Greenland. However, for the remaining countries descriptive increases in ASD prevalence figures were observed. Increases were evident both in relation to age and birth cohort....
This warm and saline water progresses northward through the eastern Nordic Seas while releasing heat to the atmosphere (Isachsen et al., 2007; Mauritzen, 1996). The modified Atlantic Water masses recirculating in Fram Strait and exiting from the Arctic Ocean merge in the East Greenland Current,...
The freshest waters in the IFF region arrive there from the direction of Iceland, and are either composed of runoff/meltwater from Iceland itself, or, more likely, modified polar waters of the East Greenland Current carried to the front by the East Icelandic Current [Jónsson, 2007; Mac...
(IFSJ), is relatively uniform in hydrographic properties, very similar to the North Icelandic Jet flowing westward along the slope north of Iceland toward Denmark Strait. This suggests a common source for the two major overflows across the Greenland-Scotland Ridge. The IFSJ can account for ...
