The hydrological simulations were performed with the Wa-
tershed Simulation and Forecasting System (WSFS) developed
and operated in the Finnish Environment Institute (Vehviläinen
et al., 2005). The WSFS is used in Finland for operational hydrolog-
ical forecasting and flood warnings (www.environment.fi/water-
forecast/), regulation planning and research purposes

On the northern side a tephra wall rises 20 meters above the water. The ice walls at the southwestern corner of the crater are melting, i.e. at the site of the vent that was active 4 - 6 June. The rate of melting is assumed to be about one cubic meter per second.

at midnight on the 6th of April and is between the
two existing fissures. Rescue teams from the Icelandic Association for Search
and Rescue had detected subsidence in the area on the 6th of April about
420 meters northeast of the original eruption area in Geldingadalir, which was
about 150m long and about 1 meter deep. In the photos that were taken
during the reconnaissance flight on the 7th

Statistics on wind direction are dependent on the observer and can change unless there is a direction meter.
Cloud and snow cover
Both cloud and snow cover is estimated by the observer and inter-observer changes are common. The variability of cloud cover is less in Iceland than in most other countries (it is cloudy very often).
Snow cover has been estimated

in the period 6th to the 22nd, eight from ships and one from land. The icebergs were closest to land at 66°28,81'N og 21°23,86'V and close to Selsker (66°07,5N og 21°31'V).
No seaice was in the Greenland Strait in August and northeasterly winds prevailed in the area
