A second, but usually smaller, increase in runoff oc-
curs in the autumn. In northern Finland more than 95% of annual
maximum floods are caused by spring snowmelt (cf. Fig. 7a). Also
the small upstream lakes in the northern part of the lake area
and the northernmost of the coastal rivers fall mainly into this cat-
egory. In most coastal rivers the major floods can be caused by
either snowmelt

takes place on two vents along the fissure, the northernmost part of the rampart and from the central part of the rampart. These two sources merge into one plume. Downwind, dense volcanic gases separate and descend. Further downwind a second plume, rich in water vapour, reaches higher elevation than the first plume

the WMO method and its application in Iceland
Abstract
Natural hazards have always been a major threat to individuals and the society in Iceland.
During a period of optimism after the Second World War it was assumed that progress and
modern development would soon marginalize such threats. A series

Review 92:1–22, 1998). Nevertheless, the individual
intrinsic preferences which drive decisions in social dilemmas have not yet been empiri-
cally identified. This paper asks whether risk and inequity preferences are behind agents’
behavior in a sequential public good game. The experimental results show that risk aversion
is negatively correlated with the contribution decision of first movers. Second/media/loftslag/Public-Choice-2012---Teyssier---Inequity-and-risk-aversion-in-sequential-public-good-games.pdf
glaciation, great jökulhlaups from marginal lakes of the glacial
period ice sheets are known to have occurred. Hundreds or thousands of cubic kilo-
meters of water drained in outbursts with maximum discharge of millions of cubic
meters per second (Clarke et al., 2004; Baker and Bunker, 1985; Baker et al., 1993).
At the other end of the scale are small surface lakes in the ablation areas
