objectives and organizational arrangements of
water management. The main objective set by the
WFD is to achieve a good ecological and chemical
status for all water bodies in the European Union.
Besides environmental goals, the WFD introduces
new managerial requirements such as a
participatory approach to water management in
which stakeholders’ opinions are taken into account

principal stresses. This indicates that the Coulomb
failure criterion gives a good description of the crustal stresses. Tthe sizes of the shear stresses do not
fit the shear strength of the rock but do fit the shear stresses limited by friction on shearing fractures.
Extensive drillings have shown that the crustal rock contains large number of fractures (faults and
joints of all sizes). All

as a regional deficit in surface water or
groundwater over an extended period of time. In this study, the focus is on summer
streamflow drought, i.e. excluding low flows due to frost. In order to mitigate the negative
effects of drought, forecast severe events or assess future drought characteristics, a good
understanding of the hydroclimatological processes causing severe droughts is essential

the word „ice“ in its name. I welcome you all, in particular those who have
come from abroad. I hope you have a nice time here in Iceland. I hope you will
feel the warmth here – even though there is little or no volcanic activity
going on as we speak, and even though we worry about a warming world. There is
good warmth and there is bad warmth“ Mr

arrival times, offering the possibility of measuring the relative distance between earthquakes with high
accuracy. However, at the beginning we will use the picked phase arrivals from the SIL catalog, since

prior to significant earthquakes, adequate data are often lacking to test the hypothesis of
preseismic signals. Using earthquake data in order to detect such signals, errors in earthquake locations
and velocity models may give a false-positive temporal signals. For the detection of a low level
(~1.0%) preseismic change, good knowledge of seismic structure, high accuracy
