ICE-SAR's office leads the project with the help of many SAR team members as well as others with thorough experience in travelling in Iceland in different conditions. Safetravel is supported by a number of sponsoring companies.

not decreased. Magma flow is between 100 and
200 m3/s. The lava advances by about 1 km/day and its area yesterday afternoon was
around 16 km2.
o The eruption sites are the same as before. The eruptive intensity on the southern
fissure that opened on Friday is much less than on the northern fissure that has
been active since the beginning of the eruption.
o The lava tongue now extends 11 km

is healthy. This is sometimes the case with wireless
communications. When this is the case, data is downloaded when communication
conditions allow. In the event of a power problem, a station will go into sleep-mode and
stop logging data. This creates a discontinuity in the data series for that particular station.
Receiver hardware malfunction also creates gaps in the data series.

In collaboration with Ragnar Slunga, his most important contributions were in automatic estimation of fault-plane solutions for microearthquakes by inverting observed polarities and spectral amplitudes of P- and S-waves, and in relative locations of microearthquakes. Sigurður’s research thus demonstrated that microearthquakes contain information about large-scale tectonic processes.

Definitions of climate change
Climate change in IPCC usage refers to a change in the state
of the climate that can be identified (e.g. using statistical tests)
by changes in the mean and/or the variability of its properties,
and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or
longer. It refers to any change in climate over time, whether
due to natural variability

cap and, in 2007, a rock avalanche fell on the Morsárjökull outlet glacier in southern Vatnajökull ice cap. Rockslides and rock avalanches on glaciers may break up the surface of the glacier, thereby adding ice to the moving material. In addition, the slide may sweep water from glacial lagoons on its way, creating a fast-flowing slurry of rock, ice, water and even air. Debris flows of this type

the outcomes of implemented management
strategies (Walters 1986). The concept explicitly
acknowledges uncertainty and complexity in social-
ecological systems (see also Berkes and Folke
1998). The idea of adaptive management is based
on the insight that the ability to predict key drivers
influencing a social-ecological system, as well as a
system’s behavior and its response, is inherently
