of the weather and the resulting floods must be kept in mind when making travel plans for the coming weekend.
Rapid melting of recently fallen snow could result in river and stream floods, slush flows, and, possibly, mud flows. Such extreme conditions occur every few years, so special care must be taken to avoid possible hazards.

IASPEI is confident that the L'Aquila case will provide the opportunity to develop a proper link between science, policy makers and society in order to avoid any type of miscommunication of information and scientific knowledge

4. Which action plans / adaptation scenarios are available and should be developed?
The groups should here describe how you arrive at decisions on possible adaptation scenarios to
be developed and afterwards analysed. What you want to avoid, what could be achieved (SWOT
etc.).
5. Which evaluations of effects of climate change are required?
Effects could be technical (flooding

Uncertainty is a property (state of confidence) of the decision
maker rather than a property (state of perfection) of the total
body of available knowledge subjectivity is an important
aspect of how we define uncertainty
Example: A person may be uncertain about the exact value of a river
discharge value due to uncertainties related to instruments used for
measurements, representativeness

latter region, considerable warming of the Irminger current in the mid-1990s
helps explain the spatial signal of warming in Iceland. As pointed above, during the last decades the
warming rate in Iceland greatly exceeds the global average, and if this could
be solely traced to thermal variations in ocean currents it might be expected
