on 3 August, for example, the net shortwave radiation flux increases from 300 W m 2 over the
glacier to 500 W m 2

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

Member States (MS)7 that joined on 1st May 2004 (TNS Opinion & Social, 2005).
Although not directly comparable with previous ones, the 2004 Special EB shows
that, on average, climate change is the third environmental issue most people worry
about (cited by 45% of respondents) on a par with air pollution, preceded by water
pollution (47

The first map shows cloud cover measurements at a few stations in Iceland, along with information about cloud type and lowest cloud altitude (see following diagram). This information can be useful in evaluating the quality of the forecast.
Cloud cover observations are made every three hours at a few stations in Iceland. The latest observation is shown

of the glaciers at their maximum at the end of the Little Ice Age (about 1890) and also at the end of the 20th century. On the map surge-type glaciers are distinguished from non-surge-type glaciers with a darker green color. A symbol shows volcanic calderas which are located underneath the glaciers. Also shown are place-names of all of the glaciers that have been given names.

broad-band sensors and several more have the Lennartz 5s + DM24 combination installed.
These stations will be running the τmax driver within the coming months.
