It is also a powerful tool for creating group of customers, operations and land use are necessary for securing employment. International airport hubs like Keflavík Airport are usually a long-term economic resilience for both the airport and the surrounding one of the largest employers of the surrounding communities and even communities.

Together, the airport and surrounding opportunities for inhabitants in the municipalities around the airport. That communities can seek tenants and investments from the public and is how the Icelandic labor force can be prepared for upcoming changes in private sectors to increase their resilience both during times of rapid the employment market. growth and recession. This both reinforces already existing industries so that they can thrive and attracts other industries to the airport area. 5 6 Development Context for the Keflavík Airport Development Area Introduction The plan is intended to support employment in the region. Abundant opportunities can be found in the region and therefore it is paramount that the plan proves successful. Kadeco, a company owned by the Keflavík Airport is equally important for the entire country as it is Iceland’s point of connection with the outside world. Icelandic state, has been tasked with Kadeco’s task is to create a powerful development plan making a strategic development plan for and a strategic land use plan based on a vision for the area, market analysis and international competitions for ideas and the area surrounding Keflavík Airport in planning. cooperation with Isavia, Reykjanesbær This document is intended to form the basis for the development of a future vision for the Keflavík Airport area and Suðurnesjabær municipalities. and a regional brand.

  • Signature of Deep Mantle Melting in South Iceland Olivine
    Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (2019) 174:43 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00410-019-1580-8 ORIGINAL PAPER Signature of deep mantle melting in South Iceland olivine Paavo Nikkola1,2 · Guðmundur H. Guðfnnsson2 · Enikő Bali2,3 · O. Tapani Rämö1 · Tobias Fusswinkel4 · Thorvaldur Thordarson2,3 Received: 1 December 2018 / Accepted: 26 April 2019 / Published online: 13 May 2019 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract We present new high-precision major and trace element data on olivine macrocrysts from various volcano-tectonic settings in Iceland and use these data as a proxy for mantle mode and melting conditions. Within individual sampling sites examined (seven lavas and one tephra) olivine-dominated fractional crystallization, magma mixing and difusive re-equilibration control observed variability in olivine composition. High-pressure fractional crystallization of clinopyroxene may have lowered Ca and increased Fe/Mn in one olivine population and subsolidus difusion of Ni and Fe–Mg afected the mantle-derived Ni/Fo ratio in some compositionally zoned olivine macrocrysts. Interestingly, magmas erupted at the southern tip of the Eastern Volcanic Zone (SEVZ), South Iceland, have olivines with elevated Ni and low Mn and Ca contents compared to olivines from elsewhere in Iceland, and some of the SEVZ olivines have relatively low Sc and V and high Cr, Ti, Zn, Cu and Li in comparison to depleted Iceland rift tholeiite. In these olivines, the high Ni and low Mn indicate relatively deep melting (Pfnal > 1.4 GPa, ~ 45 km), Sc, Ti and V are compatible with low-degree melts of lherzolite mantle, and elevated Zn may suggest modal (low-olivine) or geochemical (high Zn) enrichment in the source.

  • Bsc Business Administration
    BSc Business Administration How have current market conditions affected Icelandic airlines compared to international competitors and how to they perform differently? December 2018 Student: Þórunn Andrésdóttir Kt: 160493-2759 Instructor: Katrín Ólafsdóttir Scanned with CamScanner Abstract The behavior of the commercial aviation market has changed greatly in the last 4 decade which has caused the market to shift from an oligopoly market to a monopolistic competitive market. This shift has increased competition in the market as low-cost carriers, budget airlines, have entered the market causing the prices of airfare to drop. With increased competition on the market and new airlines entering the market with innovative ideas, it has created operation difficulties for airlines in the market. In particular the Icelandic airlines, as airline expenses have steadily been increasing. Rising jet fuel prices, increasing average wages and exchange rate deficit are among the changes in the market that are weighing heavily on airlines expenses. This thesis discusses how these market factors affect the Icelandic airlines and how their performance is different compared to the competition in the market. The analysis that was conducted showed that the Icelandic airlines spend more on jet fuel and employee’s salary than their competition. However, Icelandair’s unit cost was the second lowest in the analysis which indicates that the airline is more likely to survive if there will be a major decrease in airfare demand in the market. Key words: commercial aviation, Icelandic airlines, jet fuel, average wages, CASK, transatlantic routes. Preface This final project is a 12 ECTS thesis for a BSc degree in Business Administration at Reykjavík University.

  • Tourism in Iceland: Soft Landing Or a Belly Flop?
    Tourism in Iceland: Soft landing or a belly flop? Arion Research October 2018 Table of contents • Key findings (p. 3) • From zero to hero (p. 4) • Airlines operating environment and impact on tourist arrivals (p. 11) • The downside risk is significant (p. 21) • Are we getting ahead of ourselves in hotel construction? (p. 28) – How do Icelandic hotels fare in international comparison? (p. 38) – Airbnb showing signs of growing pains (p. 49) • How quickly the tide turns (p. 54) Key findings • Increased capacity of the Icelandic airlines has played a large role in the sensational growth in tourist arrivals to Iceland. • Although oil prices have surged since 2016, airfares have not followed. According to estimates, the Icelandic airlines will pay around one thousand ISK with each passenger in 2018, a development that is unsustainable in the long run. Airfares are simply too cheap and they need to increase. Analysis of tourist’s price elasticity of demand indicate that rising airfares could lead to decrease in number of tourists, especially if the ISK remains strong. • We predict very little growth in tourism in the coming years. In our base case tourist arrivals will increase by 1.4% next year and 2.4% in 2020. There is quite a lot of uncertainty, but we consider the downward risk to be greater. For example, if growth in VIA passengers continues at the same rate in 2019 as it has done in 2018, number of inbound tourists could slightly decrease. Global trade tension could also slow growth in passenger transport, a development which would affect Iceland.

Farms fear financial failure as they compete with cheaper imports; high import reliance renders the country vulnerable to natural, political, and financial volatility; climate changethreaten s to exacerbatethese food systemweaknesses . Yet Iceland has no contingency plan, and adaptation measures are absent from national climate change reports.While thisgap could be perceived asnegligence , to do so assumes a universalistic framework for risk and resilience—a trendcurrently seen in theglobal proliferation of formulaic, resiliency plans.
