the word „ice“ in its name. I welcome you all, in particular those who have
come from abroad. I hope you have a nice time here in Iceland. I hope you will
feel the warmth here – even though there is little or no volcanic activity
going on as we speak, and even though we worry about a warming world. There is
good warmth and there is bad warmth“ Mr

In earthquake engineering the estimation of the impact of subsoil characteristics on site effects, and
modeling the distribution of ground motion amplitudes are known as key elements in accurate seismic
hazard assessment programs. Recently, the deployment of Icelandic strong-motion arrays, ICEARRAY
I in the SISZ and ICEARRAY II in the TFZ, has

a systematic com-
parison of results to observed precipitation has been carried out. Un-
dercatchment of solid precipitation is dealt with by looking only at
days when precipitation is presumably liquid or by considering the
occurrence and non-occurrence of precipitation. Away from non-
resolved orography, the long term means (months, years) of observed
and simulated precipitation are often

Earth's deformational processes which are part of the Earth system evolution in time, (ii) understanding
the geo-hazards and their implications to society, and (iii) contributing to the safe and sustainable use
