3. Which knowledge is needed regarding climate effects and the involved uncertainties, and
how do we obtain such knowledge?
Knowledge is expertise, skills, what is known, facts, information and awareness or familiarity.
Uncertainty can relate to framing, emission scenario, GCM, RCM, downscaling, local

Monitoring Systems
To monitor seismic and volcanic activity in
Iceland, IMO operates a nationwide digital
network of 44 seismic stations (network name:
SIL) [Bödvarsson et al., 1999], six volumetric
borehole strain meters, and 16 continuous
GPS stations (network name: ISGPS) (H. Geirs-

in 2001. Continuous profiles, approximately 1 km apart,
were measured in the accumulation zone and a dense net-
work of point measurements were carried out in the abla-
tion zone. Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of the surface
and bedrock were created from these data (Fig. 2; Björns-
son and Pálsson, 2004). The estimated errors are at most
1–5 m (bias less than 1 m) for the surface

at the beginning of 2005).
More recently, qualitative research in the UK suggests that people do articulate
their moral obligations towards society in relation to climate change. Whilst people

more fluid with not so much fighting or positioning. It
makes it easier to discuss with single groups around the

stakeholder group sessions. D unfolds this further. There is
always an agenda. When you bring together different
