Sveinn Pálsson (25 April 1762 – 24 April 1840) was an Icelandic physician and a naturalist who carried out systematic observations of Icelandic glaciers in the 1790s. He also observed volcanoes and wildlife throughout his homeland. He studied medicine and natural science in Copenhagen (1787–1791) before spending four years travelling around Iceland and studying nature. He described his research in Ferðabók (Travel Journal) and in addition, wrote Jöklarit (Glacier Treatise) and Eldrit (Volcano Treatise). Sveinn also wrote extensively about medicine.
