New edition of Icelandic Agricultural Sciences (IAS)

Issue no. 24/2011 in Icelandic Agricultural Sciences (IAS) and there are many interesting scientific articles on Icelandic agriculture and land use. Helga Gunnlaugsdóttir at Matís is a member of the IAS editorial board, but in addition, this edition contains articles by several Matís employees.

The scientific journal Icelandic Agricultural Science, or IAS, is an international journal on life sciences related to agriculture and land use.

IAS has now got a new website www.ias.is. On this page you can access all the scientific articles that have appeared in the publication since the beginning in 1988 in electronic form.

IAS is the only international scientific journal published in Iceland on research related to forestry, fisheries, land reclamation, agriculture and other land use.

In his time, the editorial board changed IAS the name of the publication into English and further increased the requirements for the quality of scientific articles. All articles published in the publication are in English and are peer-reviewed by at least one foreign expert (and one domestic), as well as an editor. In connection with this change, several directors of the institutions responsible for publishing the publication, such as the director of forestry, have agreed to evaluate the publication in their institutional agreements as "Peer-reviewed international scholarly journal".
