This experience offers a deep dive into the forces of nature that continue to shape Iceland’s most dynamic landscapes. Here, you’ll take on the role of a Citizen Scientist and examine the change in designated profiles on this famous black sand beach.  Additionally, you'll compare previous measurements to learn about and track stability, long term developments (erosion or accretion) and adaptations (storm recovery).  Bonus: Imagine being part of a long term research project that will have an impact on Science and Safety!
