drops by 300 m over a 4 km distance. Below the ice fall,
the glacier spreads out forming two branches, west and east
of a prominent ridge. Currently the eastern branch termi-
nates in a lagoon at ∼40 m a.s.l. and the western branch in
a lagoon at ∼20 m a.s.l. (local names are Hoffellsjökull and
Svínafellsjökull for the eastern and western branch, respec-
tively).

Topic 1 summarises observed changes in climate and their ef-
fects on natural and human systems, regardless of their causes, while
Topic 2 assesses the causes of the observed changes. Topic 3 pre-
sents projections of future climate change and related impacts un-
der different scenarios.
Topic 4 discusses adaptation and mitigation options over the
next few decades
