-type mechanisms all
contained significant volumetric components. Dahm and Brandsdóttir (1997) interpreted
the distribution of event locations and mechanisms with a vertical dyke intrusion beneath
the northern flank of the volcano. Over the same period, between 3 August 1993 and 6
June 2005, more than 15 cm of deformation was observed in InSAR data, but was centred
just south of the glacier

boundary flux between the unsaturated zone and the groundwater (Schulla
& Jasper, 2007).
Information on land use, soil type, elevation and other general properties of the watershed
are given in static distributed grids while a number of parameters describing specific
processes are adjusted to the properties of each watershed by comparison of modelled and
measured discharge series.

is taken into account, and
consequently the estimated incremental impacts tend to be near the upper bound. If over the
course of time (i.e. as climate change proceeds) road users and road administrations get convinced
that the frequency of some adverse events has increased, adaptation will start to occur, e.g. by
using another type of asphalt, favoring cars with more intelligent braking

Seismic tremor: Volcanic tremor is still more than before the eruption and has been
rather steady the last couple of days, but small pulses, mostly on the
lowest frequency (0.5-1.0 Hz), are being detected on the earthquake
stations around the volcano.
Earthquakes: Eleven earthquakes have been detected under the volcano today, but 8

All significant weather encountered by an aircraft in flight, either to or from any Icelandic airport or airstrip, shall be reported to the Icelandic

The map shows the location of the damaging earthquake that struck yesterday afternoon. Most movement took place along the fault shown in green.

From the recorded data we obtained nearly 120 FPS of the earthquakes and assigned them with the
quality factors. We grouped the earthquakes into several groups according to their geographical
locations, and investigated the obtained results in each group separately. The overall results in the study
area show the dominating normal type of faulting and the N-S
