balance sensitivity (e.g., Jo´hannesson 1997) to a uni-
form temperature rise (Table 4) at both Torfajo¨kull and
Tindfjallajo¨kull during the warm last decade are con-
sistent with their low and narrow elevation range
(Fig. 1).

Outline for the case Road maintenance in a changing climate
Introduction
Roads and transport systems are vulnerable to climate change impacts (VTT 2011; Koetse and
Rietveld, 2009; Regmi & Hanaoka, 2011; Road ERA-net 2009 & 2010

expected that the future water level of the Horsens fiord will increase by 1 meter by the end of this
century.

increased net precipitation and increased rainfall intensity put pressure on the sewage
system and the lake dam. Flooding of the town is expected to occur more frequently. Future flooding
storms could be as high as 2,5 meters.
The challenges have been divided into two main themes: sea level change and rainfall.
