Intraspecfic variation in cold-temperature metabolic phenotypes of Arabidopsis lyrata ssp petraea [PDF]
Atmospheric temperature is a key factor in determining the distribution of a plant species. Alongside this, plant populations growing at the margin of their range may exhibit traits that indicate genetic differentiation and adaptation to their local ...

The Icelandic volcanic aeolian environment: Processes and impacts — A review
Iceland has the largest area of volcaniclastic sandy desert on Earth or 22,000 km 2 . The sand has been mostly produced by glacio-fluvial processes, leaving behind fine-grained unstable sediments which are later re-distributed by repeated aeolian events.

The Role of Visual Factors in Dyslexia
What are the causes of dyslexia? Decades of research reflect a determined search for a single cause where a common assumption is that dyslexia is a consequence of problems with converting phonological information into lexical codes.

Temporal and spatial variability of Icelandic dust emissions and atmospheric transport
. Icelandic dust sources are known to be highly active, yet there exist few model simulations of Icelandic dust that could be used to assess its impacts on the environment. We here present estimates of dust emission and transport in Iceland over 27 years
