is to
properly handle furniture and other interior objects so that they do not fall
off in the event of an earthquake. The effects of an earthquake on the
Reykjanes Peninsula, can be felt in a large area, and the capital area is not
excluded.The Scientific Advisory Board, therefore, encourages
people to check with their home and workplaces and fix unstable hanging
objects. Information on earthquake

During summertime tourists should bring a windbreaker, rainwear, a thick pullover (wool or fleece) and sturdy walking shoes. Travellers who are camping or heading into the interior will need warm underwear and socks, rubber boots and a warm sleeping bag.

warming towards the northeast. The warming from
1961–90 to 2070–99 on an annual basis was about 1 K in the southwest of Iceland, but reached
2–3 K in the interior and on the east coast. Of the two emission scenarios used (A2 and B2), the
higher emitting one (A2) produced slightly more warming, but a very similar spatial structure. The
HIRHAM results also showed an increase in precipitation, with more

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

York collaborated in installing a seismograph network throughout Iceland, including a network of five seismographs in the interior of the country. During the same period the number of stations in the IMO network increased markedly.
A new era of seismic monitoring began in Iceland in 1991, when a digital seismic system, the SIL system, was upgraded to fully automatic operation. It was designed

detection procedure based on: 1) an amplitude threshold; 2) the signal-to-noise ratio; and 3) an
emergent ramp-like shape. Data from six Icelandic eruptions was used to assess and tune the
module, which can provide 10–15 minutes of warning for Hekla up to over two hours of
warning for some other
