Description

Situated at a volcanic hotspot and home to the largest glaciated areas in Europe, Iceland fascinates scientists and science lovers alike. Living Earth is an engaging overview of the geological history of Iceland and its natural wonders. The book also provides an accessible introduction to Iceland’s rocks and minterals, dynamic marine environment and climatic history. Glacial retreat and other climatic issues in Iceland are of global importance and spur the quest for clean, renewable energy resources – a field in which Iceland has a prominent role to play. Ari Trausti Guðmundsson (b. 1948) is a well-known author and has published more than 20 books on nature, environmental issues, and travelling and mountaineering in Iceland. (From the back cover.)
