The International Association of Seismology and Physics of the Earth's Interior, IASPEI, has sent a press release on the l'Aquila sentence in Italy.
The European Seismological Commission, ESC, has encouraged its representatives in numerous countries

close to Hveragerði). Deformation measurements in recent years also indicate possible stress accumulations in the region, which might be released as a larger earthquake. Historic recordings show that earthquakes in that region can be up to M6.5. The last earthquakes of M>6 were in 1929 and 1968. Both of these events caused no major damage in the capital area. In modern times, however, urban

record data at regular intervals (e.g., every 10 minutes), while manual observations are made typically every three hours, or more.
Manual measurements of cloud cover, visibility and precipitation are essential, despite technological advances in automated measurement.
Satellite-based observations are an increasingly important factor in modern-day weather forecasting.

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

The cryosphere exists on all latitudes of the Earth and occurs in approximately one hundred countries of the world. While the cryosphere is an integrative element within the climate

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
