Recent Changes to Langjökull Icecap, Iceland: An investigation integrating airborne LiDAR and satellite imagery
Langjökull, Iceland’s second largest icecap (~950 km$^{2}$), was the subject of an incomplete airborne LiDAR survey in August 2007. This study investigates and evaluates the application of photoclinometry, which employs visible light imagery (here, Landsat ETM+ band 4) to interpolate unmeasured …

Implementation of Kunz-Klein localization in icecap and an application to the problem of off-center isovalent substitutional impurities in alkali halides
… a shell model lattice using the computer program ICECAP. For the case using HADES, off-center behavior was predicted, and the resulting potential was used to predict the tunnelling splitting of the system and the Grueneisen parameter. The tunnelling splitting was calculated to be 1.19 meV for 7Li+ …

Capability Well-being and Health: Monetary Valuation and Population Normative Data
… using standardized questionnaires namely: VAS, ICECAP-A, FSSQ, and SWLS. What was found was that health (VAS) and capability (ICECAP-A) and income had a positive and significant effect on SWB. The monetary value of one QALY and one YFC were 35 886 EUR and 52 883 EUR respectively. In terms of …

Glacier retreat and projected river regime changes in the hydrologically highly-coupled Virkisjökull catchment, SE Iceland
… is an outlet glacier of the Öræfajökull icecap in SE Iceland and currently covers 60% of its catchment, though this is reducing. Fieldwork and catchment monitoring activities for this project over the last 4 years includes measurement of ice ablation, proglacial discharge, dye-tracing of …

Evaluation of the Effect of Adherence to a Tai Chi exercise intervention on the Quality of Life of older People with Dementia
… Preferences of Older People — CAPability index (ICECAP-O), for PWD. It was found to be a valid and reliable QoL measure for PWD (i.e., face validity, feasibility of administration, internal and external reliability, construct validity and confirmatory factor analysis). Study-II evaluated …

The structure and seismicity of Icelandic rifts
… are seen in the north-west of the Vatnajökull icecap, at the location of thickest crust and inferred centre of the underlying mantle plume. Inversion for shear wave velocity structure shows high velocity-gradients in the top 10 km, defining a thickened extrusive upper crust in Iceland compared …

Intermontane valley fills
… with a model of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) icecap to infer the lithospheric response to deglaciation, erosion and deposition, and deduce their relative contribution to the present-day rock-uplift rate. For a range of different lithospheric and upper mantle-material properties, the results …
