Stofnvöktun Lunda 2017-2019
STOFNVÖKTUN LUNDA 2017-2019 Lokaskýrsla til Umhverfisstofnunar Árlegur stofnvöxtur lunda (λ) á Íslandi 2010-2019. Stofninn vex þegar λ > 1 og rénar þegar λ < 1, λ = 1 er sýnt með svartri láréttri línu. Veiðar eru stofnvistfræðilega ósjálfbærar þegar þegar λ < 1. Geometrískt meðaltal λ árin 2010-2019 er 0,96478, eða -2,73% fækkun á ári. Reiknuð fækkun með þessu meðaltali árabilið 2003-2019 er - 43,7%. Litir sýna þá IUCN flokka sem viðkomandi stofnvöxtur raðast á hverju ári: rauður; Í bráðri hættu – Critically Endangered; appelsínugulur; Í hættu – Endangered; gulur; Í nokkurri hættu – Vulnerable; grænn; Ekki í hættu – Least Concern. Erpur Snær Hansen 15. desember 2019 Náttúrustofa Suðurlands Stofnvöktun lunda á Íslandi 2017-2019 SAMANTEKT Lundi er algengastur og einna mest veiddur íslenskra fugla. Næstum allur lundi er nú veiddur í háf á varptíma og varð háfaveiði ríkjandi veiðiaðferð í Vestmannaeyjum um 1880 [1]. Þar hefur veiðimagn verið tengt sjávarhita frá 1880 [2]. Skiptast á hlý- og köld tímabil sem vara í um 35 ár (svonefnd AMO sveifla), og hefur veiði hnignað á hlýskeiðunum en aukist á kaldskeiðum. Núverandi hlýskeið hófst 1996 og hefur lundaveiði á landsvísu dregist saman um 90% 1995-2018, en samdrátturinn 1995-2007 nemur 73 prósentustigum, þ.e. áður en dregið var úr sókn. Líklegt er að lækkuð viðkoma á landsvísu skýri að mestu þennan samdrátt í veiðum, sem aftur endurspeglar neikvæð áhrif hitabreytinga og hugsanlega fleiri umhverfisþátta á aðalfæðutegundir lunda hérlendis, sandsíli og loðnu. Árlegur stofnvöxtur (λ) Íslenska lundastofnsins á landsvísu árabilið 2010-2019 var að meðaltali 0,96478 sem er undir stofnvistfræðilegum sjálfbærnimörkum (λ = 1). -
Circumpolar Murre Conservation Strategy
Circumpolar Murre Conservation Strategy IMPLEMENTATION PLAN 2004–2008 – ICELAND Aevar Petersen NÍ-03006 Reykjavík, January 2003 NÁTTÚRUFRÆÐISTOFNUN ÍSLANDS ISSN 1670-0120 2 ICELANDIC I NSTITUTE OF N ATURAL H ISTORY 2003 CMCS IMPLEMENTATION PLAN 2004–2008–ICELAND SUMMARY The International Murre Conservation Strategy and Action Plan (CMCS) was finalised in 1996 by the Circumpolar Seabird Group (CBird) on behalf of the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna Working Group (CAFF 1996). Prior to that and since, the CAFF countries have been implementing various aspects of the strategy most relevant to them. Iceland has worked on several aspects of the strategy, although a consorted plan has not been developed until now. The strategy covers the two murre species, Common Murre Uria aalge and Thick- billed Murre U. lomvia . An overview of the present status of various strategy actions is given. Also presented are various suggestions for actions to implement the different strategy items in future years. Guidelines are provided in the CMCS on how to implement the strategy. These fall under three headings, i.e. Priorities, Collaboration and Cooperation, and Reporting. The most important initial recommendations for future work are collected under each heading, including some general recommendations, which are important for full implementation of the strategy. Many aspects of murre management and conservation need further work in Iceland, both research and compilations of status. These include, among others, harvesting and tourism practices at colonies, distribution of murres at sea, effects of incidental takes in fishing gear, monitoring of a representative set of breeding colonies, effect of winter hunting on Thick- billed Murres, murre banding, and production of educational materials. -

Oaklands School Geography Department - Iceland Trip 2019
Oaklands School Geography Department - Iceland Trip 2019 Skogafoss Waterfall Name: __________________________________ Tutor Group: _____________________________ 1 Part A: Where is Iceland? Iceland is an island formerly belonging to Denmark. It has been a Republic since 1944 and is found in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean. We will fly to Keflavik and stay near Hvolsvollur in the SW of the island. The map above is an enlargement of the box drawn on the map of Iceland below left. Map area on next Clearly, we are only visiting a small section of page the island, but in this small area you will be blown away by what you will see. Perhaps your visit to the island will prompt you to come back to explore further in the future? 2 Part B: History of Iceland Iceland is only about 20 million years old! It was formed by a series of volcanic eruptions at the Mid- Atlantic ridge. In fact the plume of magma called the Iceland ‘Hot Spot’ is responsible for its continued existence and almost continuous volcanic activity. Exact dates for first human occupancy is uncertain, but the accepted date is 874 for the first permanent settlers from Scandinavia. They settled near Reykjavik (which means ‘smokey cove’ – due to the Geothermal heat). Settlers continued to come from Norway, Scotland and Ireland. The first parliament was held at Thingvellir (pictured right), where chieftains met and agreed laws and rules for the country. The country converted to Christianity in the 11th Century, but pagan worship was tolerated if it was in secret. Civil war followed and the end result was that Iceland accepted Norwegian sovereignty and were ruled by the Norwegian kings. -
Landyacht Island 2016 V20160706
LandYacht Island 2016 V20160706 Abschnitt Seydisfjördur nach Reykjavik: Grundsätzlich kann man nach der Ankunft auf Island Richtung Süden oder Norden fahren. Wir empfehlen, nach Süden zu starten. So kann man vor der späteren Rückreise die Zeit bis zur Fährabfahrt am attraktiven Myvatn-See abpuffern und man ist früh in der Saison an unserer Topattraktion Nr.1 Jökulsarlon, der berühmten Gletscherbucht mit vielen treibenden Eisbergen. Bei unserem zweiten Besuch nur drei Wochen später (Ende Mai) waren etwa 2 Drittel weniger Eisberge zu sehen und am schwarzen Lavastrand waren gar keine Eiskolosse mehr zu finden. Auch haben wir nur beim ersten Mal zahlreiche Robben entdeckt. Eine detaillierte Reisebeschreibung ist für die ersten 800km gar nicht nötig, alle Attraktionen liegen links oder rechts direkt an der Ringstrasse und sind leicht zu finden. Es gibt sehr, sehr viele herrliche Naturschauplätze, die in den Reiseführern gut beschrieben sind. Wir fanden Cap Dyrholaey, die Wasserfälle Skogafoss, Seljalandfoss und den Svartifoss mit dem Gletscher Skaftafell besonders schön. Wenig beschrieben, aber traumhaft schön waren der Fjadrargljufur Canyon, das Wrack einer vor 50 Jahren notgelandeten DC3 am schwarzen Lavastrand, unser geheimer Stellplatz am Gluggafoss und der Urridafoss (siehe Koordinaten). Alleine für diesen Reiseabschnitt hatten wir 14 Tage Zeit und sie wurden mit vielen eindrucksvollen Ausblicken, Fotomotiven und Panoramen belohnt. Schnell begreift man bei der Fahrt, dass der gigantische Gletscher Vätnajökull ein Lebensspender für ganz Island ist: an fast jedem kleineren Wasserfall findet sich eine Farm, für Trinkwasser ist dann gesorgt, Strom kann generiert werden und es fehlt nur noch eine Erdbohrung für kostenlose Wärme; schon beginnt die Tierhaltung oder der Lebensmittelanbau. -

Itinerary - Iceland Ring Road Complete - 15 Days
Itinerary - Iceland Ring Road Complete - 15 Days DAY 1: FROM REYKJAVÍK TO THE SNÆFELLSNES PENINSULA Are you ready to begin your adventure around Iceland? The first day takes you out of Reykjavík and under the sea, through the Hvalfjarðargöng tunnel, to the friendly town of Borgarnes. Situated in the beautiful Borgarfjörður fjord, with a magnificent mountain view, Borgarnes is home to the fantastic Settlement Center and many Saga sites. Next, you go to the Snæfellsnes peninsula, passing the volcanic crater Eldborg, through a lava field, and a couple of tiny towns by the sea, all offering great hiking opportunities. Now brace yourselves, as you are about to enter a place of (supposed) supernatural powers: Snæfellsjökull glacier and volcano, where Jules Verne based his novel "Journey to the Centre of the Earth". A view to the glacier 1 dominates the park, but it is only visible on relatively bright days. Highlights in the national park include walks on Djúpalónssandur beach, known for its lava formations, pebble stones, and trial stones for strength. Walks by the picturesque cliffs at Arnarstapi is another highlight, especially in the summer when the birdlife can be enjoyed simultaneously. Don't miss a walk to the mysterious black church located close to the yellow sand beach enveloped by black lava at Búðir. Carry on your drive around the peninsula, through several very pretty towns by the sea, including the lovely small town of Grundarfjörður and its beautiful surroundings, dominated by the mountain Kirkjufell. You can also visit the Bjarnarhöfn shark processing exhibition and/or spend some time visiting the beautiful town of Stykkishólmur, with its many pretty houses close to the harbour. -

Unterwegs Mit Dem Reisemobil Auf Der Insel Der Vulkane Und Geysire
REISETIPP I sland? Wo liegt das denn? Ziemlich weit weg, denn die Insel ist nur per Fähre in ca. 48 Stunden Überfahrt oder mit dem Flugzeug zu erreichen. Die größte Vulkaninsel der Erde ist mit rund 103.000 km�nach dem Vereinigten Königreich der flächenmäßig zweitgrößte Inselstaat Europas und liegt knapp südlich des nördlichen Polarkreises. Bekannt ist Island für seinen unaussprechlichen Vulkan »Eyjafjallajökull«, gewaltige Wasserfälle und Geysire, beein- druckende Lavalandschaften, natürliche Hot Pools und seit der EM 2016 natürlich auch durch seine Fußballmannschaft. Marion und Sören Rehmann waren insgesamt 68 Tage während drei unterschiedlichen Reisen auf der Insel mit dem Reisemobil unterwegs und haben ihre Reiseeindrücke und wertvolle Tipps für uns aufgeschrieben. Da es genug Material für fast ein ganzes Buch ist, haben wir seinen Bericht im Magazin etwas gekürzt - den ganzen Artikel, inklusive Rundreise Snaefellsness-Halbinsel, finden Interessierte auf der LandYachting-Homepage. DIE ISLANDREISE VON MARION UND SÖREN Wir waren auf unseren 3 Island-Reisen von April bis Juli unterwegs und haben das Land von winterlichen Temperatu- ren bis zum sonnigen Frühling kennengelernt. Grundsätzlich kann man nach der Ankunft im Hafen Seydif- jordur auf Island Richtung Süden oder Norden fahren. Wir empfehlen, nach Süden zu starten. So kann man vor der späteren Rückreise die Zeit bis zur Fährabfahrt am attrakti- Abenteuer ven Myvatn-See abpuffern und man ist früh in der Saison an Jökulsarlon, der berühmten Gletscherbucht mit vielen treibenden Eisbergen, in der man Anfang April noch zahlrei- che Robben entdecken kann. Eine detaillierte Reisebeschrei- bung ist für die ersten 800 km gar nicht nötig, da alle Attrak- Island tionen links oder rechts der Ringstraße liegen und leicht zu finden sind. -
