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

-SAR's office leads the project with the help of many SAR team members as well as others with thorough experience in travelling in Iceland in different conditions. Safetravel is supported by a number of sponsoring companies.

An option is 112 Iceland, an app which is easy to use. It can be used in emergency, if an accident occurs or if someone is lost. Tourist can also leave

112 Iceland app
Safetravel provides 112 Iceland, an app which is easy to use. It can be used in emergency, if an accident occurs or if someone is lost. Tourist can also leave their "trail" in case of search. From Safetravel's web-site, the app can be downloaded for either Android phones, Windows phones or iPhone:

During these years, the measuring net has improved and become more sensitive. That is the reason for showing the larger earthquakes separately.

and direction, as well as air temperature, from the IMO operational surface station net-
work. Most anemometers are installed at 10 m above ground level (mAGL). However, at some
stations, surface winds are measured at different heights, h, varying between 4.0 and 18.3 m.

precipitation and time of year (an index for
available net radiation) (Vehviläinen and Huttunen, 1997). This
equation has been calibrated and verified against observations of
Class A pan evaporation values (Vehviläinen and Huttunen,
1997). The actual evaporation is calculated from potential evapora-
tion and the soil moisture deficit. The changes in temperature and
precipitation affect
