Vulnerability to jökulhlaup hazards: A case study of the Þjórsá floodplain, Southern Iceland
… particularly to the potential impacts of jökulhlaups. One area in southern Iceland, located around the Þjórsá River and bordered by the Hvítá and Rangá rivers, is particularly vulnerable to the effects of a potential jökulhlaup. Vulnerability of the human, natural, and built environments …

Insights into marine biological responses to Icelandic glacial outburst floods from remote sensing data
… data (1 km² resolution). Covering 11 jökulhlaups in Gígjukvísl/Skaftá and seven in Kúðafljót, a systematic response emerged in residual data. Salinity reduced by 0.428 ± 0.444 (Gígjukvísl/Skaftá) and 0.280 ± 0.423 (Kúðafljót) on jökulhlaup start-days, with smaller declines one to two …

Evidence for Glacial Outburst Floods along the Lower Flathead River: Results from Geologic Mapping, Geomorphologic Analysis and a Gravity Survey near Polson, Montana
… proglacial fluvial system that included episodic jökulhlaups (outburst floods)associated with ablation of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet. Four terraces are carved into thick Qgdm deposits and can be traced the length of the KDC. The terraces correlate acrosscanyon at elevations 925 and 913 meters. A …
