processes in order to be able
to compare and evaluate alternative management regimes
and to implement and support transition processes if
required.
This article also addresses the question whether a higher
level of AIWM is showing a different response in coping
with floods and droughts than case-studies with a lower
level of AIWM. This will be done by looking at their
adaptation strategies

is underlain by a dense intrusive complex (probably gabbro), about 12 km in diameter.
Below the centre of the caldera, material with lower density occurs, possibly a caldera fill, a subsided block or
both. Existence of magma chamber is uncertain. If a shallow level magma chamber exists below the
Bárðarbunga volcano a likely location is at the base of the lower density region. Earthquakes occur

those already reported. Oxygen was measured at
normal levels, so there is no evidence of carbon dioxide (CO2)
accumulation, but this was not measured on these devices. Sulfur dioxide (SO2)
was not detected in the cave.An addition hazard is the potential
for roof collapse. During another visit in the past week, an ice block sized
2*4*0.4 m was seen to have collapsed from a side wall near

5.6 earthquake indicate normal faulting (see diagram below), suggesting that the earthquake was related to spreading of a depressed block of seabed, known as graben. Analysis of the source mechanisms of the earthquakes NNW of Gjögurtá shows signs of horizontal movement. Although such strike-slip events (see diagram below) are common for this region, they seem to indicate that seismicity

), for the purpose of predicting earthquakes, has been described as the Holy Grail of
seismology, i.e. highly desirable goal but with elusive results. Preseismic signals of the order of 10–
20%, reported in the 1960ies and 1970ies, have not been convincingly reproduced. Lower level (0.5–
3.5%) coseismic and postseismic in situ changes have, however, repeatedly been reported. Due to lack
of seismicity

The volume of storage in the subglacial flood path, reached a maxi-
mum of 35 Gl which corresponds to two-thirds of the total flood volume. The volume
of subglacial storage was an order of magnitude larger than could have been melted
with the initial heat of the lake water and heat formed by friction in the flow along the
flood path. The largest part of the space for subglacial storage

of view, a spatial analysis framework is adopted, drawing from the fields of
urban economics, urban planning, and human geography. In order to shed light to the researched theme,
the main analytical focus of the study is the formal organization of the built environment, and several
environmental, economic, and meteorological variables are constructed and analysed.

A GPS station was mounted there on 10th July 2015 in order to monitor displacements at Bárðarbunga in the aftermath of the Holuhraun eruption. Further adjustments and maintainance took place in November 2015 (see photos).
